416-8B LOW FREQUENCY

LOUDSPEAKER

DESCRIPTION

The ALTEC 416-8B is a 16" low-frequency loud­
speaker of professional quality that is ideal for

use in wide-range sound reinforcement and
high-fidelity systems. Performance is charac­

terized by smooth response with extraordinary

linearity.

A structurally reinforced frame, rigid enough to

permit front or rear mounting, supports a heavy
permanent magnet providing high flux density.

The low-mass voice coil is made from edge-
wound copper ribbon to provide more turns of
wire in the voice-coil gap. The cone suspension

has exceptionally high compliance for accurate
reproduction of low frequencies.

The 416-8B loudspeaker complements a wide

selection of ALTEC-designed enclosures.
