The Forza 850 LUM saves time, space, and money, and provides an elegant simple solution for pathway or general landscape lighting and sound. By combining two products into one, we simplify and cost reduce your landscaping project.
LED Light
Installing a permanent outdoor lighting and audio system can be expensive and complicated. OSD has made the process easier and less expensive by combining both lighting and audio in the same product. The Forza 850 Lum is designed to illuminate pathways and borders and to provide 360 degree full bandwidth sound. Unlike solar powered lights and Bluetooth speakers, the Forza 850 Lum does not require replacement batteries nor will a wireless connection be lost.
LED Light Considerations
The LED light connects to a low voltage transformer. The choice of transformer should be decided by the landscape lighting designer, or if you are installing yourself can be sourced directly online from sites like Amazon. The LED light requires 12 Volts and up to 10 Watts. The light colour or temperature is 4000K, commonly called “Cool,” just above neutral. The maximum light output is 800 Lumens, similar to a 60 Watt incandescent lightbulb. Area of illumincation is approximately 1.5'
*Note*: We do not provide the low voltage transformer for the LED Lighting.
The choice of transformer should be decided by the landscape lighting designer or if you are installing yourself can be sourced directly online from sites like Amazon. There are two wires coming from the bottom of the Forza 850 LUM one is for connecting to an amplifier for sound and the other is for connecting a transformer for the LED Light and is labelled "LED Light". The wire for the LED light can be extended. A 5% reduction in brightness can be expected using 14 gauge wire over 190 feet. If you are partially buring the Forza 850 LUM, please experiment. When in doubt, consult a landscape lighting designer.
Durability At its Finest
The FORZA 850 LUM is a durable and weatherproof omni speaker that provides outstanding sound to exterior audio systems and makes outdoor living even more enjoyable. This stealthy omni speaker is ideal for a variety of landscapes, including large backyards, and delivers clear highs and mids as well as smooth, strong bass. Rated at 200 watts of power handling, the FORZA 850 LUM outdoor ground speaker is made of high-impact, resin fiber that stands up to whatever crazy climate you live in and includes an antique bronze colour that blends easily with outdoor landscapes. Setting up this omni-directional outdoor speaker couldn't be easier. Simply plug the FORZA 850 LUM into an amplifier or receiver with direct burial speaker cable, bury the speaker according to the directions, and enjoy great sound in your outdoor space. The 8 inch woofer offers authoritative bass sound while the 1” mylar whizzer tweeter tackles the high notes.
Fill Those Wide Open Spaces with Great Audio
Omni-directional speakers are ideal for wide open spaces, which have few hard surfaces to reflect and disperse sound waves. These resilient outdoor speakers radiate sound evenly in a 360° pattern, so you’ll hear rich and immersive audio whether you’re sitting down or walking around the backyard. The FORZA 850 LUM is engineered with a cabinet and driver scheme that overcome the sound of wind, traffic, and other ambient noises that can dilute the sound experience. Keep in mind, however, that most omni speakers are passive so you’ll need amplification, and woofer sizes and power handling vary to fit small, medium and large landscapes. Tough as nails, omni speakers are designed with special enclosures and weatherproof components that are resistant to rain, snow, bugs and dirt. If you really want to shake things up, add an omni-directional subwoofer for a full-range outdoor audio experience.
