There’s no doubt the guitar speaker is one of the most important pieces of the tone puzzle. With no practical way to demo them in a retail environment, it has always been a challenge for retailers to sell replacement or upgrade speakers. Until NOW, that is. The Eminence Tone Center, consisting of a 4x12 cabinet loaded with four uniquely voiced guitar speakers and a foot switch, finally offers the consumer the ability to play through a selection of speakers by plugging in any amplifier of their choice. With full color graphics and product information cards for each model, this retail display makes a consumer’s purchase decision easy. Learn more at www.eminence.com.

professional series If you’ve heard live audio, you’ve heard the Eminence Professional series loudspeakers. From the pump-it-up sounds of a sports arena, to the latest hits played live by the greatest artists, even the Star-Bangled Banner proudly booming onto the deck of an aircraft carrier. You’ll hear them in the local VFW Hall and Moose Lodge. And being reverend or rockin’ in places of worship. No wonder that for over 40 years, Eminence Professional series loudspeakers have been the brand of choice in audio systems throughout the world. There are 26 unique models in our Professional series so it’s easy to find yours. From heavy-duty subwoofers, low distortion woofers, and super high-power woofers to lightweight neodymium transducers in truncated frames for line arrays. Each is designed with your specific needs in mind. Every speaker comes standard with Made in the USA pride, and is backed by a Seven Year Warranty against manufacturer’s defects*. There are over 1,200 USA dealers and distributors worldwide. Visit www.eminence.com to find a dealer near you. *Warranty policy may vary outside of the continental United States and Canada. Check with your local distributor for warranty details.
No other name in loudspeakers has been so widely depended upon for performance and reliability. The signature of each Eminence Professional model is its cast aluminum Eminence chassis. Lightweight and strong, aluminum keeps the magnetic field inside the gap. That means the motor strength is higher and the stray magnetic field lower. We coat the chassis and all metal parts with an epoxy-acrylic finish. Our in-house e-coat process lets us control the thickness of that coating to within 0.001”. That’s the diameter of a human hair and it’s critical when working with close tolerance transducer motor designs. We then add front and rear sealing gaskets on each model to allow front or rear loading.
We are a full line stocking distributor of Eminence components since 1978. Same day shipping—call us for a quote today! 800-321-6306

neodym ium series The basic design of the loudspeaker hasn’t changed much in the past 50 years. On the contrary, many materials incorporated in loudspeaker design have improved dramatically. Back in the 50s and 60s, Alnico was the most common magnet used in loudspeakers. However, a shortage in materials and increased costs for Alnico during that time precipitated a shift to the widespread use of the ceramic magnets most of us are familiar with today. Just before the turn of this century, speaker manufacturers started seriously evaluating the potential benefits of using neodymium magnets in loudspeakers. Although neodymium magnets were expensive, they allowed loudspeaker motors to be as little as half the weight of comparable ceramic magnet motors. Prices of neodymium started coming down and interest in lighter weight speakers grew, as did neodymium speaker options. There are 8 unique models available in our Neodymium Professional series. Each was designed with a specific application in mind. From heavy-duty subwoofers, midranges, and transducers in truncated frames for line arrays, there is an Eminence Neodymium Professional model for your application. Each product includes Made in the USA pride, along with a Seven Year Warranty against manufacturer’s defects*. With over 1,200 USA dealers and distributors worldwide, you can easily find them in a store near you. *Warranty policy may vary outside of the continental United States and Canada. Check with your local distributor for warranty details.

AMERICAN STANDARD Each Eminence American Standard model can be identified by its economical Stamped Steel chassis. Although more affordable than cast aluminum, these frames provide an excellent and versatile chassis. We coat the basket and all metal parts with an epoxy-acrylic finish. Our in-house e-coat process lets us control the thickness of that coating to within 0.001”. That’s the diameter of a human hair and it’s critical when working with close tolerance transducer motor designs. We then add front and rear sealing gaskets on each model to allow front or rear loading. There are 24 unique models available in our American Standard series so it’s easy to find yours. Each is designed for versatility in a range of applications. And like our Professional series, every speaker comes standard with Made in the USA pride, and is backed by a Seven Year Warranty against manufacturer’s defects*. There are over 1,200 USA dealers and distributors worldwide. Visit www.eminence.com to find a dealer near you. *Warranty policy may vary outside of the continental United States and Canada. Check with your local distributor for warranty details.

The Eminence mission statement is “Quality, Value, and Service to Meet Our Customer’s Needs.” From stage to studio and even the highway, our speakers speak for this mission. Eminence offers 6.5-15” models with applications ranging from standard sub-woofers, two-way enclosures, and coaxials, to truncated line array models, monitor woofers, and high performance midranges setting records for output in car audio. No other loudspeaker line provides more choices, power handling, performance, and reliability for the price.

GUITAR speakers Whether it’s changing pickups, a new stomp-box or holding your tongue just right, guitarists are always looking for ways to get that tone. Here’s a fact - the most overlooked tool in the tone toolbox is the loudspeaker. Nothing short of changing amplifiers or guitars can make such a difference in your tone. The guitar amp speaker is the last element in the tone chain connecting your sound to the audience. It affects your overall coloration, articulation, low-end, midrange, highs, shape and extension, and ability to cut through any mix. The right speaker can offer you a deep, rich mellow flavor; an articulate, percussive and driving clean sound; or a growling, howling guitar on fire. Along with your rig and your style, your speaker provides a tonal palette that only you can imagine.
It’s never been easier to “Pick Your Sound.” The Eminence Tone Center, consisting of a 4x12 cabinet loaded with four uniquely voiced guitar speakers and a foot switch, finally offers the consumer the ability to play through a selection of speakers by plugging in any amplifier of their choice. With full color graphics and product information cards for each model, this retail display makes a consumer’s purchase decision easy.
Eminence offers you over 30 unique specifications for Acoustic and Electric Guitar amps. We have a tone that’s right for you and your rig. A tone that only you can call your own. Our speakers are made for the working musician. With a seven-year warranty inside the continental United States, the pride of being Made in the USA, and a price that’s as easy to handle as a 12-bar blues line.
EMINENCE.COM Proudly presenting the ultimate solution for comparative evaluation of guitar speakers. Log on today to review our guitar speaker
TONE GUIDE & SOUND CLIPS.
e n o t r u o y f o l o r t n o take c with eminence.
Now available from EMINENCE! The MAVERICK™ and REIGNMAKER™ with patent-pending FDM™ Technology
have put a new twist on guitar tone. Turning the modulator knob gives you complete control over the speaker’s output level, associated distortion, and tonal balance, helping you find that sweet spot of saturated tube tone but at a significantly lower volume. dBSPL 110
A 300° knob turn offers warmer tones and nearly 9 dB of attenuation.
105 100
Tweak the knob for a wide range of tones: More attenuation affords a warmer tone while less attenuation restores volume and brightness.

bass guitar Look inside most any professional or name brand bass amplifier or enclosure and you’re going to find custom designed, Eminence bass guitar speakers. No other speaker manufacturer has a better understanding of bass guitar enclosures and the physics of the woofers required to hold your back line together. Whether you’re packing a 20lb. practice amp or a 150lb. 8X10 seismic generator, you’ve chosen your rig to cut through the mix with your signature sound. Maybe you want fast, tight, and articulate, or perhaps you need a fat, round, and warm tone. Maybe you need a speaker that gives you the best of both worlds. You might be playing the CMA awards, have 4 roadies and care less how much your gear weighs, or perhaps your humping yourself to a club in Manhattan via public transportation and can’t carry another pound. No matter your circumstances, there’s no reason to compromise on your tone!
The world’s best bass gear manufacturers can’t be wrong, and neither should you. Whether you need to replace a single speaker or want to completely re-vamp your entire rig, let the bass experts at Eminence give you a hand. We’re here to help! 502.845.5622 or info@eminence.com. With a seven-year warranty inside the continental United States, Made in the USA, and offered at prices for the working musician, it’s never been easier to put your rig on the Richter scale.

*Coloration, Tone, and the appropriateness of a speaker for a specific genre of music are very subjective subjects. Eminence has dedicated countless hours to the tonal evaluation of each speaker in these two series. Additional listening tests were also conducted by Greg Martin, lead guitarist for the Kentucky Headhunters and Steve Wilson of Ambient Sound, both recognized in the music industry as experts on the subject of guitar tone. This data is provided to be used as a general guideline to aid in guitar speaker selection, however the suitability of a specific speaker for a specific purpose is a matter of personal taste and can only be determined by you the user. Eminence makes no guarantees regarding the suitability of any speaker in these series for any specific application.

UNDERSTANDING LOUDSPEAKER DATA The ability to choose the most appropriate loudspeaker for a particular enclosure is directly related to your understanding of the performance data that manufacturers provide with their products. Prior to 1970, there were no easy or affordable methods accepted as standard in the industry for obtaining this data. The recognized methods were expensive and often unrealistic for the thousands of individuals needing loudspeaker performance information.
Thiele-Small parameters In the early seventies, several technical papers were presented to the AES (Audio Engineering Society) that resulted in the development of what we know today as “Thiele-Small Parameters”. These papers were authored by A.N. Thiele, and Richard H. Small. The Thiele and Small papers concentrated on showing how the following parameters define the relationship between a speaker and a particular enclosure. Eminence recommends that you develop a basic understanding for the meaning of each parameter so that you can make informed decisions when choosing your loudspeakers.
Fs
This parameter is the free-air resonant
frequency of a speaker. Simply stated, it is the point at which the weight of the moving parts of the speaker becomes balanced with the force of the speaker suspension when in motion. It is important to know this information so that you can prevent your enclosure from ringing like a bell when it reaches its resonant frequency. As a general rule of thumb, a lower Fs indicates a woofer that would be better for low-frequency reproduction than a woofer with a higher Fs. However, other parameters affect the ultimate performance of a woofer as well and may make a speaker with a higher Fs a better candidate for your application.
Re
This parameter is very simply the DC resistance
of the driver in question. In other words, this measurement is made with an ohm meter and is often referred to as the “DCR”. This measurement will almost always be less than the impedance listed by the manufacturer. Many consumers get concerned when they see that the Re is less than the published impedance and fear that their amplifier is getting a load that is too heavy. Due to the fact that the inductance of a speaker rises with a rise in frequency, it is not likely that the amplifier will often see the DC resistance as its load.
Le
This parameter is the voice coil inductance
of the speaker measured in millihenries (mH). The industry standard is to measure inductance at 1,000 Hz. This is a difficult parameter to explain, but basically as frequencies get higher there will be a rise in impedance above the DC resistance rating. This can be attributed to the fact that the voice coil is acting as an inductor. Consequently, the impedance of a speaker is not a fixed resistance, but can be represented as a curve that changes as the input

frequency changes. Maximum impedance or Zmax occurs at Fs. Qts, Qes, and Qtc are all
measurements related to the control of a speaker’s suspension when it reaches the resonant frequency. is a measurement of the control coming
from the speaker’s mechanical suspension system; the surround and spider.
Qes
is a measurement of the control coming from
the speaker’s electrical suspension system; the voice coil and magnet.
Qts
is called the “Total Q” of the driver and is
derived from an equation where Qes is multiplied by Qms and the result is divided by the sum of the same. The result is Qts. As a general guideline, woofers fall into three categories relative to their Qts: 1. Qts of .4 or below indicates a woofer well suited for a vented enclosure. 2. Qts between .4 and .7 indicates a woofer well suited for a sealed enclosure. 3. Qts of .7 or above indicates a woofer well suited for free-air or infinite baffle applications. These suggestions are simply rules of thumb and do not always apply. For instance, the Eminence Kilomax 18 has a Qts of .56 that would indicate a sealed enclosure, but we know that the Kilomax is one of the most highly regarded woofers in the Professional Audio industry for a ported enclosure.
Vas/Cms
Vas (Not to be confused with
the recommended enclosure size.) represents the equivalent stiffness in an air volume to the force of the compliance (Cms) of the suspension in a particular speaker. It is one of the trickiest parameters to measure. Air changes relative to humidity and temperature. Cms is measured in meters per Newton. It is the force exerted by the mechanical suspension of the speaker. It is simply a measurement of its stiffness.
Vd
Expressed in Tesla meters is a measurement
of the motor strength of a speaker. This is created
Q Parameters
Qms
Bl
This parameter is the Peak Diaphragm
Displacement Volume. It is the Xmax (Voice Coil Overhang) of the driver multiplied by the Sd (Surface area of the cone). Simply stated it is a measurement of how much air the cone will move at full excursion and is usually noted in cc.
by the product of the magnetic field strength times the length of wire in the field. If you were to take a given mass, that when placed on the cone of a speaker would move the cone downward from its home position, then measure the current in amperes required to move the cone back to home position, you can calculate Bl. The formula is Ma in grams divided the current in amperes.
Mms
This parameter is the combination of the
weight of the cone assembly plus the driver radiation mass load. Confusing…but the weight of the cone assembly is easy. Most manufacturers know that weight when the speaker is designed. It is the sum of the weight of the cone assembly components. The driver radiation mass load is the confusing part. In simple terminology, it is the weight of the air that the cone will have to push. Air certainly has mass and needs to be recognized in these calculations.
Rms
This parameter represents the mechanical
resistance of a driver’s suspension losses. It is a measurement of the absorption qualities of the speaker suspension and is stated in N*sec/m.
EBP
This measurement represents Fs / Qe. It is
used in many enclosure design formulas to determine if a speaker is more suitable for a closed or vented design. An EBP close to 100 usually indicates a speaker that is best suited for a vented enclosure. On the contrary, an EBP closer to 50 usually indicates a speaker best suited for a closed box design.
Xmax
Short for Maximum Linear Excursion.
Speaker output becomes non-linear when the voice coil begins to leave the magnetic gap. Although suspensions can create non-linearity in output, the point at which the number of turns in the gap (see Bl) begins to decrease is when distortion starts to increase. Some manufacturers have often used the maximum excursion of the speaker which when exceeded would result in mechanical damage. This parameter is recognized as Xlim. The bottom line is; be sure you are comparing apples to apples. Most manufacturers will specify the way this measurement is obtained. Distortion is typically very audible before Xlim is reached due to the increase in non-linearity in the motor and suspensions. Continued on page 54.
