Features & Specifications

One of our best designed patio speakers, the AP550TT is a single speaker with dual voice coils. This configuration works well in smaller spaces where installing multiple speakers is difficult. With just one speaker, you get even dispersion throughout the listening area. Our dual voice coil, twin tweeter system masters the challenges of outdoor sound and wide-coverage installations, with a degree of dispersion that conventional stereo speaker systems can’t match. We call it “constant directivity.” You’ll call it amazing. It really cranks out the bass, even at low listening levels. Plus, it has twin 1" soft dome, pivoting tweeters mounted in Slant-Back wave planes for enhanced high-frequency dispersion. So you’ll get great coverage no matter where you are.

What Is a Dual Voice Coil Speaker?
A Dual Voice Coil (DVC) speaker uses a special voice coil cone design that allows both channels of a stereo system to drive one cone. Sound complicated? It's not. Basically a DVC speaker plays both right and left channels through one speaker cone. You get both channels but without the acoustic separation that happens with two speakers. DVC speakers are great space savers and customers love them for bathrooms, hallways, small patios, etc. They're also great for outdoor areas where stereo separation is not always a big concern.


Features
· Rust-resistant aluminum bracket for mounting versatility
· Gold-plated spring compression binding posts for optimum connectivity
· Sturdy ABS polymer frame
· Power-coated rust-resistant grille

William
from Fort Worth, Texas asked:
March 1, 2016
I saw that in a review one customer used this speaker as a center channel speaker. How should the speaker be hooked up to make it a center channel using the whole speaker instead of just half of the speaker?
1 Answer
Hi William: Not how you would hook up the AP-550TT to make it a center channel. The good news is the AP-650TT the step up speaker features a 16/8 ohm switch so in the 8 ohm setting you only have to connect a single voice coil just like you would connect a standard center channel speaker. You could also use the for your left and right front speaker in the 8 ohm setting. Checkout the web site, we have an image of what the setting is for the two different applications for the AP-650. Good Luck TL/3733

I have a patio area for restaurant thats 25 x 50 feet. Want to add 4 speakers for coverage. Will these be best suited for this size area.
1 Answer
Hi Chris, I would go with the AP650TT, as they are a bit bigger and can cover a larger area.

i have a receiver in the porch enclosure and would like to hook yhese up outside on the deck can i just hook these to the a or b output to be able to switch from porch enclosure to outside deck and everything still sound good
1 Answer
Hi Kristy, The ability to play A and B at the same time depends on your receiver. Check your manual for more information. The AP550TT is a single stereo speaker and takes up as much room as a pair on your receiver (a left and a right speaker cable goes to the AP550TT). CL/MA 1713

I recently purchased one of these and when I hooked it up the left channel was not working right at all. I have initiated an exchange with my online retailer, but wanted to make sure this is not typical. Basically when I swung the balance control to the left it sounded very thin, nothing in the woofer at all, and only quiet sound from the tweeter. Swing to the right channel and everything sounded great. I triple checked the wiring to be sure polarity was correct.
1 Answer
Hi Josh: I am assuming you connected both voice coils of the AP550TT from the left and right outputs of you Receiver/Amplifier. You might also reverse your input wires and then do your balance test. Normally the left and right balance should have no effect if it working properly. So if both inputs are connected and you have reversed the wires and find that the left works and the right now has a problem you will want to get it exchanged. TL

Can you daisy chain these speakers together to get 4? 2 left and 2 right?
1 Answer
Hi Kevin: This speaker features a dual voice coil with dual input (left and right, +/-). You can connect a another four conductors to these to output to an additional speaker creating a Parallel daisy chain. To do this depends on which Amplifier/Receiver you are using to power these speakers. If you were using one of our High current Amplifier like our AMP200 it would be not be a problem. When you daisy chain two speakers together (wire in parallel) you drop the impedance down to 4 ohm from 8 ohm. If you were to add a third speaker it would create a 2.6 ohm load which the AMP200/300 could handle. You also have the option of adding a volume control to help control the impedance of the two or three speakers you might want to connect. If you are using a standard 2 channel Receiver or a second zone output from an Audio/Video Receiver you may need to add the Impedance Matching Volume Control since most Receivers need to see an 8 ohm load to work the best. What happens when the Impedance is dropped down to 4 or even 2 ohm the the Amplifier demand for current increases. When the current demand rises the direct result is a dramatic increase in heat through the components. A High Current Amplifier has the dedicated Power Supply and ample internal heatsinking to handle the demand. You can tell when an amplifier is High Current when you see both a 4 ohm and 2 ohm power rating. TL

Answer
Otto
from Tampa, FL asked:
January 30, 2012
I have bought this speaker (1) for my back patio, and there seems to be a problem. I don't know much about sound systems, but I have a Onkyo TX-SR608 that has the 5.1 speakers in the house and this speaker outside as zone2. As soon as I turn it to zone 2 and start increasing the volume, my system shuts down. So, I don't know if it's the system or the speaker is too weak. Can someone give me some guidance, please? According to the specs of the amplifier, it puts out 100watts per channel.
2 Answers
Otto, There could be a problem with the assigning of Zone 2 in your menu options. Also, I would try to wire the speaker to the front speakers output, as a test to make sure its working properly. Note: in the manual for your Onkyo, it states "zone 2 will not work if the speaker type is set to bi-amp" CL
Submitted by: Customer Service - Q&A on January 30, 2012
Hi Otto: We are assuming you have connected the AP-550TT speaker to the ZONE2 speaker outputs of the AV receiver. Connecting the left +/- to the speaker to the left +/- of the speaker and the right +/- from the zone 2 to the right +/- of the AP550 speaker. The speaker should have no problem with the output of the Receiver, it is rated at 150W. The Zone 2 output should be around 100 watts. The speaker is working or you would have no sound. I just wanted to make sure the speaker is connected properly so there is nothing wrong with the impedance load. TL
