ARCHITECTURAL SPECS
The loudspeaker system shall be a three-way design, incorporating a
15-inch low frequency cone-type transducer in a vented direct radiat-
ing enclosure, one 170 mm (nominal 7-inch) cone type mid frequency
transducer, and a compression driver mounted on a high frequency
wave guide system. The mid driver shall utilize a poly-laminated cone
and be mounted in a sealed sub chamber within the system enclosure.
The system shall meet the following performance criteria: Frequency
Response: 48 Hz to 18 kHz
±
3 dB. Axial Sensitivity: 98 dB SPL 1W@1m
over the 100 to 10 kHz band. Power Handling: 450 Watts full range
AES Standard. Horizontal Coverage Angle: 130 degrees between -6 dB
points.
The system shall include an internal passive crossover network, provid-
ing full range operation via rear panel inputs. The network shall be of a
third order asymmetrical design with compensation for maximally flat
response throughout the crossover region. Input connectors shall in-
clude dual 1/4” phone jacks, banana test points and Neutrik NL4FC
Speakon connectors and be located on the rear of the cabinet.
The cabinet shall be constructed with void-free birch plywood with a
minimum of 18 plys to the inch and coated with a catalyzed black
polyurethane finish. The system shall be provided with one recessed
handle on each side of the system and stacking corner protectors. All
drivers shall be protected by a vinyl coated perforated steel grill.
The loudspeaker system shall be the EAW FR153HR .
