Community DS5-B (Black) / DS5-W (White) 5-Inch 2-Way Surface Mount

Community DS5-B (Black) / DS5-W (White) 5-Inch 2-Way Surface Mount

Community’s architectural D SERIES Surface Mount Loudspeakers are low profile, compact artfully styled enclosures with dynamic sound quality and excellent intelligibility. The full-range models provide high power handling, high sensitivity and exceptional speech clarity.

The Community DS5 is a professionally designed 5-inch, full-range that is created as a two-way compact system,  created ideal for installations where space is truly important. Easily outperforming loudspeakers of a larger size format, the DS5 is carefully made ideal for having both music and speech applications. The DS5 comes along equipped with a built-in autoformer, that comes along with a convenient front-accessible power tap switch hidden behind the rotatable logo. For durability and having improved sonic quality, the cabinet comes featuring thick-wall, internally-reinforced high impact ABS construction that comes along with rounded surfaces that greatly capable of reducing the acoustic resonances common in flat-sided cabinets. The paintable exterior comes featuring a zinc-rich epoxy dual-layer powder-coated grille and mounting bracket, stainless steel hardware and an included IP56 wiring cover.

Installation is simple and flexible with the use of the included Infin-A-Ball™ multi-angle wall mounting bracket which is allowing the low profile mounting and precise positioning of the enclosure over a broad tilt-swivel range. In addition, the integrated concealed wiring system comes producing a “clean-looking” and aesthetically appealing installation by hiding the wiring to the loudspeaker inside the arm of the bracket. An optional wall mount plate is possible to be ordered from Community during the time specified by local building and safety codes.
