Community has added 13 models to its Wet Series of loudspeakers, adding ‘innovative next generation techniques that redefine outdoor loudspeaker construction and improve sonic performance’.

Called Wet X, the new models use 12-inch and 15-inch, two-way, full-range formats and offer six rotatable horn patterns, high output and LF extension. The drivers have a large-diaphragm 1.4-inch-exit compression driver, and can produce the same output levels as the largest Wet II loudspeakers – but in enclosures only half the size. The low-frequency cone and internal circuitry have Community’s proprietary Envirotech coating for improved weather-resistance.

Wet X enclosures feature a modified trapezoidal silhouette that improves upon the curved shape of the company’s Wet II enclosures, giving ‘a more traditional look and feel’, while still providing the same outdoor direct exposure resistance and streamlined shape to reduce wind load.

Internally, the flat surfaces are fully lined with 18mm (7-layer) marine grade plywood. All of the wood is resin-sealed to reinforce the enclosure’s weather resistance. The outer shell is handcrafted of multi-layer fiberglass with a smooth glossy finish and is available in black or white, with custom paint colours optional. All models include a dual-layer powder-coated stainless steel mounting bracket.

The WX218SDF, a downfire dual 18-inch model, adds a high-performance subwoofer to the line.
