Features
CIMP
™
(Curvilinear Injection-Molded Polypropylene
Woofer Cones) is a high performance composite, which
remains rigid, minimizes cone flex and lowers harmonic
distortion. The CIMP
™
consists of a one-piece, injection-
molded polypropylene material that moves as a piston,
exhibiting power and control.
New Enhanced BAM (Basket and Motor) Assembly
utilizes a high-dampening strength cast aluminum basket,
features a low-profile open design, and provides a solid
foundation for the precision-aligned motor assembly.
Optimized Composite Rubber Surround Radius allows
extended cone excursion for additional bass output and higher
SPL. Composite rubber surround offers enhanced acoustical
dampening and UV protection, and gives the RS-Series
System Components cone maximum EXmax
™
(effective
excursion) potential.
Flexible Mounting of the RS56.2, which includes an 6” x 8”
(15.2 cm x 20.3 cm) mounting adapter, and the RS65.2 and
RS56.2, which have coaxial mounts for the tweeters, enable
the RS-Series System Components to accommodate most
installations.
Newly Designed Passive Crossover Network allows a
seamless transition between the midrange and tweeter drivers.
The Zobel circuitry keeps the tweeters’ impedance linear and
the mylar by-pass capacitors extend the frequency response.
Spring-Loaded Nickel Plated Terminals flawlessly
connect medium to heavy gauge speaker wire to the sleeved
high-power tinsel lead wires.
Teteron ™ Elliptical Dome Tweeter with Neodymium
Magnet provides a smooth high frequency response with
quick, detailed and spatially-correct imaging. The elliptical
dome shape optimizes both off-axis (door panel mount) and
on-axis response. It has a wide dispersion with increased
efficiency.
High-Temp Polyimide Film Voice Coil Former
improves sonic and conductive properties, and prevents
thermal-electrical meltdown.
Ferro-Fluid ™
cooled tweeter voice-coil extends the high
frequency transducer’s life span.
Kicker Marine Ready models come with water resistant
mounting hardware. This enables the RS56.2 to replace stock
boat speakers without rusting your ship.
