Applications

Atlas Sound model AH9040S stadium horn is ideal for shorter throw and 
wide coverage where full range reproduction, maximum intelligibility, 
and high sound pressure levels are required. Applications include football 
stadiums, sports arenas, baseball fields, convention centers, and audito-
riums.

Weather resistant construction features of the AH9040S include a mul-
tiple screen configuration to prevent moisture from damaging internal 
components: A perforated aluminum screen covers the large horn 
mouth, a secondary screen is in place forward of the high frequency 
driver, and a third tightly perforated screen protects the 15" cast frame 
woofer. 

Installation

A heavy-duty stainless steel "C" style mounting bracket is included with 
the AH9040S to allow easy mounting to most any flat surface. Three 
drop forge eyebolts are also pre-installed (2-front of horn plus 1-rear 
for "pull-up") for suspension mounting via load rated aircraft cable. (Use 
caution when suspending any object overhead. Refer to the installation 
manual for more details).

The AH9040S includes a 4 pole terminal block, weather resistant con-
nector on the underside of the device for easy hook-up and daisy chain 
wiring to other AH9040S. If 70.7/100V operation is required, the optional 
Atlas Sound AF140 autoformer may be used. NOTE: Due to the full 
range operation capabilities of the AH9040S 70.7/100V operation is pos-
sible, but discouraged. Better frequency response and amplifier dampen-
ing factor can be realized by using large gauge (#10 to #12) home runs 
and series/parallel hook-up wiring at the head end location with direct 
coupled, low impedance amplifiers. Generally speaking, this improve-
ment of frequency response and amplifier dampening factor is worth the 
sacrifice of line loss over distance - especially if transformer insertion 
loss at the loudspeaker location is considered.
