Over the past year or so, Russound has been at the forefront of bringing commercial 70-volt/100-volt technologies into the residential market. The latest 70-volt/100-volt, 8-ohm loudspeaker from Russound is its newly announced AW4-LS-BR landscape loudspeaker.
Charlie Porritt, CEO, Russound, says the newly introduced AW4-LS-BR landscape loudspeaker is designed to meet the many requirements of residential and light-commercial applications.
“Our commercial streaming system is designed to be an outstanding, reliable performer, especially outdoors where it someimes can be a challenge to create a satisfying soundscape in a large area,” says Porritt. “But with our new landscape speakers, facilities managers and homeowners alike can enjoy exceptional audio year round, even in the most challenging weather conditions.”
