The Biamp Desono EX-S6 is a compact 6.5-inch two-way surface-mount loudspeaker designed for professional distributed audio systems requiring wide coverage, high intelligibility, and a discreet installation profile. As the smallest model in the Desono EX Series, the EX-S6 provides full-range performance in a compact enclosure suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations.
With 120° x 120° coverage and frequency response extending down to 58 Hz (-10 dB), the EX-S6 is designed to provide consistent audio coverage in applications such as hospitality, retail, education, corporate facilities, and other commercial spaces.
Compact 6.5-Inch Two-Way Design
The EX-S6 combines a 6.5-inch treated paper-cone low-frequency driver with a 1-inch soft-dome tweeter and waveguide. The coaxial design provides wide, consistent coverage from a single compact enclosure while maintaining vocal intelligibility and full-range music reproduction.
The loudspeaker provides 89 dB sensitivity and is capable of up to 112 dB continuous and 118 dB peak SPL when processed, making it suitable for a range of commercial sound reinforcement and distributed audio applications.
70V, 100V and 8-Ohm Operation
The Desono EX-S6 can be configured for different commercial audio system requirements. Its integrated transformer provides selectable 70V and 100V taps, while an 8-ohm low-impedance bypass provides flexibility for systems using conventional low-impedance amplification.

For low-impedance operation, the EX-S6 provides an 8-ohm connection with 200W continuous power handling.
Flexible Click Mount Installation
The EX-S6 is designed for fast installation using Biamp's Click Mount™ mounting system. Available mounting options include a pan-tilt bracket for precise aiming and a low-profile U-bracket for applications where a simple, compact mounting solution is preferred.
The Click Plug connection system includes a weather-resistant gland nut to help simplify installation in appropriate outdoor environments.
These mounting options make the EX-S6 suitable for installations where loudspeaker positioning and aiming need to be adjusted for consistent coverage.
