2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
TOA's H-3 and H-3WP are wall-mounted 2-way speakers featuring wide horizontal dispersion.
The H-3 is designed for indoor use, and the H-3WP is designed for outdoor use.
Note: Protect the H-3WP from rain when installing. (Refer to p. 10 "Waterproofing the base frame.")
3. FEATURES
• Smooth curved surface blends in with the interiors of most modern buildings.
• Wide horizontal dispersion covers wide areas when mounted on the wall.
• Two 10 cm woofers feature a neodymium magnet which ensures powerful, low distortion low-frequency
sound reproduction.
• 2.5 cm soft dome tweeter also employs a neodymium magnet for clear, low distortion high-frequency sound
reproduction and high power-handling capability.
• Built-in crossover network circuitry features sharp cut-off characteristics that realize uniform energy radiation
while suppressing unwanted input signals to the woofer or tweeter.
• Two lock tabs secure the enclosure to the supplied base frame. The base frame can be mounted directly to
a 2-unit electrical box.
• A built-in matching transformer permits the speaker to be used for both high- and low-impedance
applications. For low-impedance applications, either the 8
Ω
terminal or 16
Ω
terminal can be selected.
Impedance can be easily changed from outside the unit.
• Detachable input connectors with dual positive and negative terminals for bridge connections.
• Enclosure is made of fire-resistant ABS resin (UL Standard 94V-0 Grade).
• Front grille is specially designed for ease of refinishing and repainting.
4. HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
• To clean, wipe the unit with a dry cloth. When the unit gets very dirty, use a cloth damped in a neutral
detergent. Never use benzine, thinner or chemically-treated towel, as this could damage the unit's form or
finish.
• Avoid using the H-3WP speaker on the beach because the speaker's life can be greatly shortened by sea
breezes.
