TRANSDUCERS

Low Frequency

Two 12-inch long-excursion cone drivers; 4 Ω nominal impedance

High Frequency

Two 3-inch diaphragm compression drivers coupled to a constant-directivity horn through a patented REM manifold; 16 Ω nominal impedance

AUDIO INPUT

Type

Differential, electronically balanced

Maximum Common Mode Range

±15 V DC, clamped to earth for voltage transient protection

Connectors

XLR 5-pin female input with male loop output; XLR 3-pin female connectors available to accommodate only balanced audio (no RMS signals)

Input Impedance

10 kΩ differential between pins 2 and 3

Wiring4

Pin 1: Chassis/earth through 1 kΩ, 1000 pF, 15 V clamped network to provide virtual ground lift at audio frequencies

Pin 2: Signal +
Pin 3: Signal -
Pin 4: RMS
Pin 5: RMS
Case: Earth ground and chassis

Nominal Input Sensitivity

0 dBV (1 V rms) continuous is typically the onset of limiting for noise and music

Input Level

Audio source must be capable of producing of +20 dBV (10 V rms) into 50 Ω to produce the maximum peak SPL over the operating bandwidth of the loudspeaker.
