Selected technology in detail 

Maximum resistance

Many outdoor speakers offer only splash protection. The OD-M81-BK goes further: The IP66 certification and the UV-resistant plastic enclosure guarantee maximum protection against all relevant weather influences. In addition to the complete protection against the ingress of dust, this speaker is also protected against strong jets of water from any direction. You can install the speaker permanently on the terrace, in the pool area, or in the garden without having to remove or cover it in the rain.

Dynamic 8-inch woofer with bass flexibility

For music playback outdoors, a powerful woofer is crucial, as bass frequencies dissipate quickly in open spaces. The 8-inch polypropylene cone woofer provides the necessary power here. A special advantage is the removable port plugs. These allow for an easy switch between two enclosure configurations:

• Sealed configuration (with plugs): Offers maximum weather protection and a more precise, powerful bass.
• Bass reflex configuration (without plugs): Amplifies the bass reproduction for a fuller, deeper sound when conditions allow. You get full control over the bass reproduction and weather protection – depending on the need and environment.

Discreet design and flexible mounting

The design of the Muro OD-M81-BK is slim and elegant, without visible screws or large brackets. The included mounting system allows for vertical or horizontal installation. Particularly practical is that the logo can be rotated, so the appearance remains professional in any orientation. In addition, the integrated, waterproof cable entry keeps the connection terminals safe and dry. The ELAC speaker thus blends discreetly into the ambiance, the installation is uncomplicated, and the wiring remains reliably protected.
