Bose® FreeSpace® FS2SE

Features

Overview: The Bose FreeSpace FS2SE is a high-performance 70/100 volt loudspeaker that can be wall mounted indoors or outdoors. Designed for foreground music and speech reproduction in a wide range of installed applications, the FS2SE speaker is an ideal choice for restaurants and bars, transportation facilities, houses of worship, retail applications, and more. Made from durable polypropylene with a powder-coated steel grille, the FS2SE features a 2.25" full-range driver mounted in a ported enclosure that can deliver high output with a 145° horizontal x 140° vertical coverage pattern and a frequency response of 95Hz - 16kHz.

Shared Voicing: Shared voicing across the entire FreeSpace FS product line allows Bose FreeSpace loudspeakers to be integrated into the same system while maintaining consistent tonal quality.

Outdoor Use: The Bose FS2SE speakers are rated for direct-exposure outdoor installations and carry an IP55 weather-proof rating. The speakers feature UV-resistant ABS enclosures with perforated powder-coated grilles, along with a rubber terminal cover for outdoor weather protection.

70/100 Volt: The FS2SE is rated for 16 watts RMS (64 watts peak) and can be used with both 70 and 100 volt systems and includes a 16Ω bypass mode as well. An easy-to-change front dial allows tap settings to be made without having to remove the speaker from its mount. Accessing the front-panel tap dial is done by removing the grille. Tap settings include:

• 70 V: 1W, 2W, 4W, 8W, and 16W
• 100 V: 2W, 4W, 8W, and 16W
• Bypass: 16Ω

Connections: A rear-panel 6-pin Euroblock connector with set-screw terminals is provided for speaker wire connections, and can accommodate wire from 18 - 14 AWG. A screw-down rubber cover is provided to protect the terminals from particle and water ingress.

Mounting: The FS2SE speakers include U-brackets and screws for wall-mounting. Seven incremental notches at each end of each speaker allows the bracket to be tightened at specific angles, with 0˚ being in the center. Angles of 15˚, 30˚, and 45˚ are provided for both upwards- and downwards-facing directions. Two rear-panel M8 threaded holes are provided for optional ceiling-mount or pan-and-tilt brackets (both sold separately).
