This guarantees that the woofer and tweeter harmonize optimally and produce a clear and precise sound image. The fully sealed construction also ensures that the crossover remains protected from environmental influences. A hidden crossover network (ICC) further contributes to a clean installation appearance and significantly minimizes distortion during signal transfer.

Was bedeutet die IPX6-Zertifizierung für die Anwendung bei hoher Luftfeuchtigkeit?

The IPX6 certification of the Rockford Fosgate Color Optix M1-8 speakers means that they are specifically protected against strong water jets, providing excellent protection in high humidity environments. This certification is particularly advantageous for applications on boats or near the coast, where water and moisture are often expected. The speakers are designed to withstand both UV rays and saltwater, ensuring that audio performance and structural integrity are maintained even under extreme conditions.
