Community W2-312-64H User Manual

WET SERIES II FULL-RANGE

3-WAY, 12-INCH

Description

The W2-312-64H is a high output,
three-way loudspeaker system,
with a 60o H x 40o V coverage pat­tern, designed to provide high qual­ity music and voice reproduction in
applications requiring the ultimate
in extreme weather-resistance.

The HF driver uses a Community 1”
exit, non-metallic diaphragm and a
Community 2” exit MF driver with
an environmentally inert mylar dia­phragm. The 12” LF driver utilizes a
carbon fiber cone. Ferrofluid fills
the voice coil gaps to prevent gap
corrosion, to improve thermal pow­er handling, and reduce power
compression. Community’s preci­sion passive frequency dividing
networks minimize band overlap
through the use of high order filters
which maintain linear phase re­sponse characteristics.

Engineered for use in permanent
installations, the loudspeaker en­closure and faceplate are con­structed of multilayer glass compo­site for extreme structural strength.
A three-layer Weather-Stop™ grille
provides weather-resistance to the
internal components, while all ex­posed hardware is stainless steel
or powder-coated aluminum extru­sion.

The W2-312-64H includes four ½­13 mounting points, two on each
side of the enclosure, which mate
with Community’s optional
SSY25KIT mounting accessory.

The W2-312-64H is available in a

o

x 40o coverage pattern (model

90
W2-312-94H), and can also be
ordered with or without a built-in
optional 200-watt autoformer
(model W2-312-64HT) with se­lectable taps at 200, 100, 50 and
25 watts.

The W2-312-64H is backed by a
five-year product warranty plus a
fifteen-year enclosure warranty
