[a]
Response Curves and Data : Anechoic Far Field above 200 Hz, Half-space Anechoic below 200 Hz.
Usable Range Data : Frequency Response Capability with TD crossover slopes removed.
[b]
Sensitivity & Peak SPL : will depend on spectral distribution. Measured with band limited Pink Noise.
Refers to the specified +/- 3 dB range. Data are for Speaker + Processor + recommended amplifier combinations.
[c]
Directivity Curves and Data : 1/3 octave smoothed frequency response, normalised to On-Axis response.
Data obtained by computer processing on off-axis response curves.
