Figure 6: The curve above shows the effect of the ‘treble tilt’, ‘bass tilt’ 

and ‘bass roll-off’ controls on the free field response.

Figure 7: The curve group shows the horizontal directivity characteristics 

of the 1029A in its vertical configuration measured at 1m. The lower 

curve shows the systems power response.
