Description
Premium sound to maximize any design.
DesignMax loudspeakers bring outstanding audio and aesthetics to any commercial space. With 12 models to choose from, it's easy to create tailored solutions that deliver instantly impressive sound. QuickHold mounting mechanisms make installation efficient, reducing strain and hassle - and saving substantial time. And with both black and white versions available, DesignMax loudspeakers integrate seamlessly with any décor.
The 50-watt DesignMax DM5SE loudspeaker features a two-way 5.25-inch woofer and 1-inch tweeter coaxially mounted within the Dispersion Alignment system, producing a frequency range of 60 Hz - 20 kHz. The DM5SE is surface-mounted, IP55 outdoor-rated, and locks onto a hidden QuickHold U-bracket for fast, secure installation.
Features:
- Combine models to complete any design, big or small - 12 loudspeakers to mix and match, from 2-inch, low-profile models to 8-inch, high-SPL compression-driver loudspeakers and outdoor-rated options
- Deliver instantly impressive sound with custom Bose drivers - no DSP or EQ required. For even better sound, use select Bose DSPs and amplifiers to enable Bose loudspeaker EQ and SmartBass processing, which expands performance and response at any listening level
- Ensure a consistent listening experience throughout the room with the Dispersion Alignment system, which matches the coverage of the woofer to the pattern of the tweeter
- Reduce installation time with the patented QuickHold mounting system, which also reduces strain, hassle, and the chance of product damage
- Install easily - all models include Euroblock connectors; ceiling-mounted models include plenum-rated backcans, tile-bridges, and front-access audio wiring that makes installation and troubleshooting easier
- Install DM5SE outside - IP55 rating with standard aluminum grille for outdoor use
Applications:
- Performing arts venues
- Places of worship
- Conference centers
- Retail stores
- Restaurants and bars
- Hospitality venues
