crest

Crest Audio has expanded its ClimateGuard speaker line with two new coaxial models: the CG105CX and the CG108CX. Designed for demanding outdoor environments, both models are built with weather-resistant enclosures and components to ensure reliable audio performance in harsh conditions.

The ClimateGuard series features composite enclosures rated IP56 for protection against dust and high-pressure water. The cabinets are coated in a Black Hammerhead polyurea finish, similar to truck-bed liner, to seal panels and prevent moisture intrusion. A stainless-steel grille with a hydrophobic cloth provides added front-end protection without affecting sound quality, while a water-sealed input cup and gland nut entry on the back ensure additional protection from fluid and dust.
