PD6322/43 is a Precision Directivity™ 40° by 30° full range, three-way loudspeaker designed for use in arrays or singly in demanding music or speech system applications requiring high output capability with excellent pattern control and low frequency extension to 40 Hz.
The low frequency section, two 2206H 300 mm (12 in) VGC™ Vented Gap Cooled low frequency transducers, offers high power handling and low power compression for high continuous SPL capability. A newly designed LF loading plate provides the highest possible sensitivity, low frequency output and system reliability.
The mid and high frequency sections are horn-loaded for maximum sensitivity and pattern control. The CMCD-82H cone midrange compression driver consists of a driver/phasing plug assembly providing high output with low distortion. The design’s extended response coupled with a small 100 mm (4 in) exit diameter allow for smoother transition to the high frequency driver in the magnitude and polar pattern domains. The integral 200 mm (8 inch) transducer features a high power Differential Drive® dual voicecoil design. The 2432 H large format high frequency compression driver utilizes a neodymium magnet and aluminum diaphragm to deliver clear and intelligible high frequency projection, extended frequency response, and low distortion at even the highest drive levels.
