Fonestar SONORA-5B16: 16-Ohm High-Fidelity Outdoor Speaker (White)

The Fonestar SONORA-5B16 is a professional-grade 5.25” loudspeaker designed for high-performance audio in distributed sound systems. While it shares the premium aesthetics and durability of the SONORA series, the "16" version is specifically engineered with a 16 Ω impedance. This allows for more speakers to be connected in parallel to a single low-impedance amplifier channel, making it the perfect choice for larger venues that require uniform sound coverage without the need for a 100V line system.

The 16-Ohm Advantage

By utilizing a 16 Ω design, the SONORA-5B16 provides system designers with greater flexibility. You can safely wire two speakers in parallel to achieve an 8 Ω load, or even four speakers to achieve a 4 Ω load on a single amplifier channel. This allows for high-fidelity, low-impedance audio across larger spaces like long corridors, expansive restaurant floors, or multi-zone retail environments.

Superior Audio Quality

Small in size but big on sound, the SONORA-5B16 delivers a high-quality listening experience:

  • Two-Way Clarity: Features a 5.25” polypropylene woofer and a 1” tweeter for a balanced 80–20,000 Hz frequency range.

  • Punchy Performance: With 40W RMS power, it delivers crisp background music and highly intelligible voice announcements, even in noisy environments.

All-Weather Reliability

The SONORA-5B16 is built to thrive in both elegant indoor settings and harsh outdoor conditions:

  • IP66 Waterproof: Fully protected against dust and powerful water jets, ensuring longevity in rain-exposed areas.

  • Marine Grade Durability: Equipped with a powder-coated aluminum grille, stainless steel hardware, and a UV-resistant ABS enclosure. It is certified for salt-mist resistance (IEC 60068-2-11), making it ideal for beachfront terraces and coastal resorts.

Fast and Flexible Installation

Designed for the professional installer, the SONORA-5B16 includes:

  • "Easy-Mount" Bracket: An adjustable weatherproof mount allowing for ± 60º of rotation in all directions for horizontal or vertical placement.

  • Professional Euroblock Terminals: High-quality connectors that ensure a secure, long-lasting connection and simplify daisy-chaining.

  • Safety First: Includes a steel safety cable for extra security in public, high-traffic installations.

Ideal Applications

  • Large Commercial Spaces: Shopping centers, supermarkets, and hotel lobbies where multiple speakers are needed on a single line.

  • Hospitality: Restaurants, cafes, and beach clubs requiring high-fidelity outdoor sound.

  • Educational & Corporate: Auditoriums, hallways, and conference centers.
