Designed to provide exceptional musical quality and vocal clarity, Community’s new I SERIES is an innovative family of high-power/high-output modular loudspeakers that allows designers to implement complex solutions in houses of worship, multi-purpose auditoriums, live theaters and other professional and commercial venues.
I SERIES includes point-source, high-directivity, compact and floor-monitor models in multiple performance levels, providing modular scalability for any application requirement. A suite of matching-height subwoofers, in sizes ranging from compact single 12-inch models, to ground-shaking dual 18-inch models, complements the full-range I SERIES models with powerful low-frequency extension. Optional weather-resistant versions fill the needs of sports fields, amphitheaters and other venues needing high-performance loudspeakers designed for full outdoor exposure.
I SERIES features high-output woofers that combine a variety of technologies for smooth response, exceptional intelligibility, low distortion, and minimal power compression. Two-way models have large-format compression drivers, a choice of six rotatable horns and individually-voiced, beamwidth-matched crossovers with single or biamp operation. Three-way models offer a choice of three rotatable horn patterns and biamp or triamp operation and use a combination of large-format HF compression driver and Community’s M200HP midrange compression driver – both with ketone polymer diaphragms for exceptionally smooth and uniform sound quality.
I SERIES loudspeakers’ attractive, but discreet, appearance meets system design goals while minimizing any impact on facility aesthetics. Their lightweight 15mm Baltic Birch cabinets are finished in black or white low-gloss textured paint, and their edge-to-edge wrap-around fabric-backed powder-coated steel grilles have no forward-facing logos, resulting in an exceptionally clean appearance.
A wide range of optional low-profile, modular installation hardware supports the quick and easy installation of virtually any combination of I SERIES models. These installation hardware systems improve aesthetics by keeping the brackets hidden above and behind the cabinets, while also reducing the vertical array height and minimizing the number of suspension cables.
Chris Barrow, Community’s Director of Product Marketing, said, “I SERIES is a wide variety of great loudspeaker tools, crafted for sonic and aesthetic transparency and designed to remove the limitations systems designers and integrators face when using other loudspeakers. With I SERIES, systems designers can realize their goals for even coverage and great sound while architects and owners get a loudspeaker array that blends well with a facility’s interior design.”
