Description

  The RS600i is a 6.5” 2-way speaker with 

an open-ceiling enclosure design that 

delivers effective low-end response (45 

Hz) and optimal off-axis performance 

(up to 10 kHz, EASE

™

 documented). 

SoundTube’s proprietary BroadBeam

® 

 

waveguide tweeter system delivers con-

sistent high-performance audio across the 

operating bandwidth. The RS600i speaker 

design incorporates a low-profile grille, 

proprietary M6

™

 motor-board, driver 

protection circuitry and a 6-position tap 

switch with voice coil/8 Ohm direct. 

Hanging hardware is included & features 

SpeedClamp

™

 self-locking cable grip for 

fast, easy & secure installation.
