Architecture & Engineering Specifications
The speaker shall be of the full range, two-way passive type consisting of one 8" (200 mm) LF neodymium driver and one 1.4" (34 mm) HF neodymium compression driver with 3” voice coil. Performance specifications of a typical production unit shall meet or exceed the following: frequency response, measured with swept sine wave input, shall be flat within ±3 dB from 68 Hz to 20 kHz and within -10 dB from 50 Hz to 20 kHz. Nominal dispersion, at -6 dB points, shall average 80° H x 30° V, rotatable. Nominal impedance shall be passive: 8 Ohms. Power handling shall be passive: 275 Watts continuous, 1,100 Watts peak. Sensitivity, measured on axis, mean averaged over the stated bandwidth, shall be 95dB, 1 Watt @ 1 metre.
Maximum SPL of 131 dB in passive mode (Average Peak level over overlap bandwidth. SPL level at 1 m under free field conditions, using pink noise with crest factor 4, with dedicated pre-set).
Dimensions: 515 mm high x 255 mm wide x 355 mm deep (20.3" x 10" x 14"). Net weight: 12.5 kg (27.5 lbs). The loudspeaker system shall be the Turbosound TQ8. No other loudspeaker shall be acceptable unless submitted data from an independent test laboratory verifies that the above combined performance / size specifications are equalled or exceeded.
