Origin Acoustics has introduced the Seasons Collection of outdoor speakers, which includes six models ranging in price from $200 to $490 each. The 50 Series and 60 Series utilize aluminum dome tweeters and either a 5.25- or 4x8-inch woofer, and many models (including the OS56 shown here) add dual passive radiators for improved bass response. The Seasons collection also features three subwoofer options.
From Origin Acoustics
Origin Acoustics is proud to announce the arrival of their Seasons outdoor loudspeakers just in time for warmer weather. With the dramatic increase in demand for quality outdoor sound, Origin completely rethought the category and has developed speakers that offer greater output and deeper bass.
The Collection currently features six models in either single or dual channel versions. The 50 Series uses a 5.25-inch woofer, whereas the 60 Series utilizes a 4x8-inch woofer. Both series feature aluminum dome tweeters. The model OS56 and all three of the 60 Series models utilize dual passive radiators for increased bass response while maintaining a sealed enclosure to increase protection from the elements.
The dual passive radiators create a far more balanced sonic impression. Whether they are mounted under the eaves or in a flowerbed, these speakers can reproduce everything from smooth jazz to hip-hop with all the realism you would expect from the system in your living room.
The collection features an adjustable, integrated Conceal Bracket System (CBS) bracket that secures the speaker to any surface. The bracket attaches to the speaker, after which two end caps snap into place and a hand-tightened nob screws down locking the speaker in place while sitting flush with the end cap. The result is a very clean installation that allows the speaker to be pointed at the listening area. These speakers are made from tough and durable injection-molded ABS plastic that has been shaped into acoustically tuned cabinets to compliment the hand-selected drivers.
Three powerful outdoor subwoofers designed to be buried in the landscape round out the collection with deep bass and musical thunder.
The OS series price range from $200 to $490 each at retail and are shipping now.
