Description
The SM500i is a 5.25” 2-way surface-
mount speaker with a midsize enclosure
design that delivers effective low-end
response (45 Hz) and optimal off-axis
performance (up to 10 kHz, EASE ™
documented). SoundTube’s proprietary
BroadBeam ® waveguide tweeter
system delivers consistent high-perfor-
mance audio across operating bandwidth.
The SM500i speaker design incorp-
orates a low-profile grille, proprietary
M5 ™ motor-board, 6-position tap switch
with voice coil/8 Ohm direct and mount-
ing hardware, including a fast Speed-
Lever ™ mounting system.
Applications
Designed for indoor & outdoor back-
ground to mid-level SPL surface-mount
applications, the SM500i includes a
SM500i Surface-Mount Speaker
