Below 250 Hz diffraction step shifts SPL levels down. This value holds from 250-300Hz up to 1-2kHz. This means that there are some tweeters with a 91-92dB SPL sensitivity value but most of tweeters have the common 90dB value.ġ0 or 12'' woofers may have a 91-92 dB sensitivity value.

The majority of woofer, squawker and tweeter drivers have an SPL sensitivity of 90 dB (per 2.83 Vrms of input signal) approximately. > WOOFER COST LEVEL / SETUP / CABINET REQUIREMENTSġ0 -12'' single woofer or two 8'' woofersĮnclosure wall thickness should be 22mm, internal bracing mandatory STEP 3: SELECT TOTAL POWER HANDLING CAPACITY SELECT SPEAKER CATEGORY - TARGET LISTENING SPACEĢ-way, 2 woofers, horizontally directive, A reference high-cost three-way 80-liter giant speaker can not operate in a teenager room ! Speakers are "operation-specific" devices. We have already stated that speakers are closely related to their environment. No we can't say that, because it can not be done.
Isn't it enough to say that we wish all operation parameters of our speaker under design to reach maximum quality ? One must carefully consider input information so that all these aspects be defined effectively.

Speaker configuration addresses serious aspects of the system under design : driver selection, cabinet size, special crossover properties, overall cost. The loudspeaker shall be the Martin Audio A55.Details THE DESIGN PROTOCOL: PART 1, SPEAKER CONFIGURATION The drivers shall be protected by a perforated steel grille.ĭimensions (W x H x D) shall be 152mm x 245mm x 140mm (6in x 9.6in x 5.5in).
The enclosure shall be made from UL94V-0 rated ABS material and fitted with threaded inserts for a wall bracket. Low and high frequency sections shall be integrated by an internal passive network, with LF and HF auto-resetting fuses to protect the drivers from overload. Input connectors shall be push-terminal type. Power handling shall be 50W AES, 200W peak. The on-axis frequency response shall be 90Hz-17kHz +/- 3dB and the loudspeaker shall produce a maximum SPL of 113dB peak calculated at 1 metre. Horizontal dispersion shall be 110° and vertical dispersion shall be 80°. Its transducers shall consist of a reflex-loaded 5.25” low frequency driver and a 0.75” dome high frequency driver mounted on a high frequency horn. The loudspeaker shall be a passive, two-way system. The Martin Audio SX110 subwoofer will extend the bandwidth of ADORN on-wall speakers and is ideal for foreground music applications which require increased impact and low frequency performance.

The VIA2004 amplifier in combination with a Martin Audio DX0.5 controller will be perfect partners for small scale efficient installations, or with the DX4.0 controller for larger more complex installations, which could then also be managed by Martin Audio’s VU-NET control software platform. In addition, for general outdoor use the cabinet only requires the additional waterproof connector cover.
For full-bandwidth protection, the low and high-frequency sections are individually protected against overload.Īvailable in black or white as standard, it can be readily painted to match any décor, and can be wall-mounted vertically or horizontally using the wall bracket supplied. With a nominal impedance of 16 ohms, multiple speakers can be driven in parallel from a single channel of a low impedance amplifier, such as the Martin Audio VIA2004, thereby maximising efficiency and minimising cost. It has a smooth frequency response and strong bass reproduction that extends down to 65Hz. Its Martin Audio signature sound characteristic also provides a seamless sonic transition within a multi-zoned complex using larger Martin Audio systems such as CDD or BlacklineX.Ĭomprising a 5.25” (135mm) LF driver and a 0.75” (19mm) silk-dome HF driver on a 110° x 80° horn, it handles 50W AES, 200W peak and can produce 113dB peak output at 1 metre. The A55 is the perfect choice for background and foreground systems which require superior performance.
