The W8CT utilises a total of 6 x 1" (25mm) exit high frequency
drivers, optimised for maximum efficiency in the band from
3.5kHz upwards. The 1" (25mm) exit drivers used are
extremely efficient in this band and can produce enormous high
frequency energy by virtue of their vertical line array
configuration. Use of 1" (25mm) exit drivers is additionally
important as it means that the HF array elements can be more
closely spaced.
Further down the audio band, from 750Hz-3.5kHz, 3 x high-
mid devices are again arranged vertically-in-line for maximum
throw. Each high-mid device is a sophisticated design featuring
a 6.5" (165mm) driver loaded by a toroidal phase plug and
constant coverage horn moulding.
