Overview: The Boston Acoustics Voyager RK6T2 is a two-way
acoustic suspension loudspeaker with two tweeters and stereo input. The cabinet
is styled to look like a rock and designed and built to withstand the
environmental stresses placed on an outdoor loudspeaker. The speaker is "voiced"
for outdoor use, they sound best in an open air environment. They also sonically
match the other speakers in the Voyager series.

Driver Technology
Driver Placement: Both tweeters and the woofer are angled up
twenty degrees, aimed at the listener and not at the ground, to bring the sound
up to ear level.
Woofer: The RK6T2 uses a 6.5" mica-filled copolymer cone
with butyl rubber surround. The voice coil is double wound to accommodate a
stereo input. The basket sets the driver forward to prevent any tunnel effect
and maintain a natural midrange sound.
Tweeters: The RK6T2 uses two 1" soft dome tweeters for a
stereo output from the single speaker.
Enclosure Design
Rock Styling: The RK6T2's enclosure is styled to look like a
rock and blend into your outdoor decor. This New England Granite model is light
gray with jagged edges. The speaker grilles are designed to blend into the
cabinet.
Weatherproof: The cabinet, grilles, and drivers are weather
and rust proof. They are also UV protected and will stand up to outdoor
temperature extremes.
Connections
Speaker Cable Connection: The RK6T2 has a two-foot cable
attached, rated for burial underground. Waterproof wire nuts filled with a
waterproof sealant are also included.
Wiring Requirements: Direct burial cable is recommended, 14
gauge up to 50 feet and 12 gauge over 50 feet.
Power Rating: An amplifier rated between 10 and 150 watts is
recommended to power the RK6T2s.
Mounting Options
Transformer: There are internal mounting posts for an
optional 70/100 volt transformer for use in commercial applications or when a
long wire run is necessary. (transformer available from Boston Acoustics)
