Designed for outdoor entertainment, the Definitive Technology AW5500 offers premium sound performance in a rugged, weather-resistant build. Whether mounted on a deck, patio, or poolside, this speaker delivers immersive, high-fidelity audio while withstanding exposure to the elements.
At the core of its design, a 5.25” BDSS (Balanced Double Surround System) midrange driver ensures accurate mid and low-frequency response. The innovative 5” x 8” pressure-coupled passive bass radiator enhances the depth and impact of bass, matching the output of a larger 8” woofer. A 1” pure aluminum dome tweeter provides clear, detailed highs, creating a well-balanced and dynamic listening experience.
The AW5500 is housed in a fully sealed, non-resonant PolyStone™ enclosure, making it resistant to rain, snow, and extreme temperatures. A rust-proof aluminum grille protects its internal components, while the included galvanized steel mounting bracket allows 360° rotation for easy positioning.
With a frequency response of 45 Hz to 30 kHz, 91 dB sensitivity, and a peak power handling of 175 watts, this speaker is designed to deliver robust, room-filling sound outdoors.
