Key Features
• One coaxial 8.0 inch (203.2 mm)
weather resistant low frequency driver
and one 1.0 inch (25 mm) weather
resistant high frequency driver.
• UV, scratch, chlorine and weather
resistant enclosure with professional
grade components for long-lasting
performance and durability.
• Weathered look of commonly found
gneiss in a 2-way, 100 watt speaker.
• Color options: brown, gray or
sandstone.
• Optional accessories: 64 Watt
70/100 volt transformer.
Description
This powerful 2-way speaker has an 8″
woofer and 3/4″ tweeter. Its
weathered gneiss appearance mimics
rocks commonly found in mountainous
areas. The Octorock is ideal for larger
outdoor settings where more bass
response is required. An optional 64W
transformer is available for use in 70V
systems.
Applications
Use the Octorock in outdoor
restaurants, large back yards, pool
areas, courtyards, theme parks or any
other large outdoor setting.
Patented Rockustics
Technologies
All Rockustics cabinets are
constructed from a non-polluting stone
and resin compound. The cabinets
maintain a natural aesthetic, weather
and age naturally, and are an earth-
friendly alternative to plastic
construction. To ensure 100% water-
and weatherproofing, all Rockustics
products come as a sealed unit.
Therefore, the inclusion of optional
transformers must occur prior to
completion by manufacturer.
