ARCHITECTURAL SPECIFICATIONS
The two-way full range loudspeaker systems shall incorpo-
rate a 15-in LF transducer and a 1-in exit/50mm voice coil
compression driver HF transducer.
The LF driver shall be mounted in a vented enclosure tuned
for optimum low frequency response. The HF driver shall be
loaded on constant directivity horn with a nominal coverage
pattern of 90° (h) x 45° (v). An internal passive filter net-
work shall provide fourth order acoustical crossover and sys-
tem equalization.
System frequency response shall vary no more than ±3 dB
from 65 Hz to 16 kHz measured on axis. The loudspeaker
shall produce a Sound Pressure Level (SPL) of 100 dB SPL on
axis at 1 meter with a power input of 1 Watt, and shall be
capable of producing a peak output of 133 SPL on axis at 1
meter. The loudspeaker shall handle 500 Watts of amplifier
power (AES Standard) and shall have a nominal impedance
of 8 Ohms.
The loudspeaker enclosure shall be trapezoidal in shape. It
shall be constructed of 15mm thickness void-free cross-grain-
laminated Baltic birch plywood and shall be finished in black
polyurethane. Recessed handles and rubber footpads shall
be provided. Input connectors shall be dual Neutrik NL4
Speakon. Three 3/8"-16 threaded mounting points (2 top, 1
back) shall be provided as well as a recessed cup to accept a
standmount pole. The front of the loudspeaker shall be cov-
ered with a powder coated perforated steel grill backed.
The two-way full range loudspeaker shall be the EAW model
FR159z.
