PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The loudspeaker shall consist of a 8" low frequency transducer, 1.5" HF dome tweeter; the low frequency driver's voice coil shall be 1.5" in diameter. Performance specifications of a typical unit shall be as follows: usable frequency response shall extend from 55Hz to 22kHz; nominal impedance shall be 8 ohms; the frequency dividing network shall have a crossover frequency of 2 kHz; measured sensitivity shall be at least 92.5dB ( at 1m [3.3ft] ). The input shall be switchable for use either at nominal 8 ohms or on a 100V distributed speaker line via transformer (optional). The cabinet shall be constructed of 0.47” Baltic birch plywood covered in a scratch & scuff resistant black or white finish. ARCHON speakers shall be installed in suspension by wall bracket, on tripod stand, with adjustable wall support and simple stack installation.
