Definitive Technology All-Weather AW6500 Full-Range 6.5" Outdoor Speaker - B-Stock

The Definitive Technology All-Weather AW6500 Full-Range 6.5" Outdoor Speaker is engineered to fill outdoor spaces with expansive, clear sound from a weather-resistant design. With its BDSS™ mid-woofer, large passive bass radiator, and aluminum dome tweeter, it delivers rich, full-frequency audio in a durable enclosure built for the elements.

Expansive, Full-Range Outdoor Sound

The AW6500 is loaded with a 6.5" BDSS™ mid-woofer and a 5.5" x 10" passive bass radiator to create an expansive yet clean sound in outdoor environments. This combination allows the speaker to transform patios, backyards, and other outdoor spaces into preferred listening areas with rich, full-frequency audio even at low volume.

• 6.5" BDSS™ midrange/bass driver for accurate midrange and dynamic bass
• 5.5" x 10" pressure-driven bass radiator for output rivaling an 8" woofer in less space
• Designed to fill the outdoors with thrilling, impactful sound

Deep Bass and Clear Highs

The 5.5" x 10" bass radiator is pressure coupled with the active BDSS mid/bass driver to produce bass performance comparable to a larger 8" woofer. Therefore, the AW6500 delivers deep, satisfying low frequencies without requiring a bulky enclosure.

For high frequencies, a 1" pure aluminum dome tweeter with ultralight, rigid construction plays significantly higher frequencies than the human hearing range. As a result, the AW6500 provides effortless, distortion-free performance within and beyond the audible range for clean, crisp highs.

• Pressure-coupled bass radiator for double the perceived bass output
• 1" pure aluminum dome tweeter for clean, crisp high-frequency detail
• Effortless, distortion-free performance across the full stated frequency response

Balanced, Even Coverage Outdoors

The AW6500 incorporates several design elements to maintain clear, even sound throughout an outdoor area. The BDSS woofers deliver output usually associated with a larger driver while retaining the improved dispersion and midrange definition of a smaller driver. In addition, the cone’s integrated waveguide smooths off-axis response for broad, even dispersion and better imaging.

A deeply drawn, mineral-filled polymer cone, engineered using sophisticated 3D modeling techniques, supports wide-range performance so listeners can hear clearly from both near and far positions around the speaker.

• Balanced Double Surround System (BDSS) for clear, impactful sound
• Integrated waveguide for smooth off-axis response and broad dispersion
• Mineral-filled polymer cone for wide-range performance heard near and far

Weather-Resistant, All-Weather Construction

The All-Weather AW6500 is built for outdoor use in challenging conditions. Its water-resistant design helps protect the speaker from the elements, so it can withstand rain, snow, and temperature extremes that typically drive people indoors.

Definitive Technology’s proprietary weather seal defends the subwoofers, tweeters, and passive radiators, supporting reliable performance in a variety of outdoor climates. The loudspeaker is part of an All-Weather Series designed specifically to perform come rain or shine.

• Water-resistant design to help protect against the elements
• Engineered to withstand rain, snow, and temperature extremes
• Weather-sealed drivers and passive radiators for long-term outdoor use

Durable PolyStone™ Enclosure and Flexible Mounting

The AW6500 uses Definitive Technology’s exclusive PolyStone™ enclosure to provide a rugged, long-lasting housing. This tough exterior is designed for durability and longevity in outdoor installations while also supporting accurate audio performance.

PolyStone enclosures, coupled with mesh aluminum grilles, create an acoustically neutral, anti-resonant home for the tweeter, subwoofer, and passive radiator, helping the speaker maintain consistent sound quality over time. The finish is both fade-resistant and paintable.

For flexible placement, galvanized steel mounting brackets with thumb screws are included. These brackets support both horizontal and vertical orientation, allowing the speaker to be mounted in various positions to suit different outdoor layouts.

• Rugged PolyStone™ enclosure for durability and longevity
• Acoustically neutral, anti-resonant housing with mesh aluminum grille
• Fade-resistant and paintable white finish
• Included galvanized steel mounting brackets with thumb screws
• Horizontal or vertical mounting options for flexible installation
