FREQUENCY (Hz)
Frequency response is measured in a spherical free-field environment, under 1 watt
& 1 meter conditions, with a swept sine wave signal, while the speaker unit is
mounted in an 200-liter sealed box. The impedanced magnitude curve is measured
while the speaker is suspended in free air, with its cone in the vertical plane

ARCHITECT’S AND ENGINEER’S SPECIFICATIONS
The low-frequency loudspeaker shall be a TOA Model HLS46S-8 or
approved equivalent. The loudspeaker shall have a 460mm (18 in.)
nominal diameter, with a bolt pattern diameter of 440mm (17.3 in.), a
weight of 16.5kg (36.4 Ibs.), and a depth of 202mm (7.95 in.). The loud-
speaker shall have a rigid diecast aluminum frame that shall permit front
or rear mounting. The loudspeaker shall have a 600 watts, AES
Standard power-handling capacity and a uniform frequency response
from 20Hz to 3,000Hz, with a recommended crossover frequency of
1,000Hz or lower to obtain smoothest overall system response.
Band-limited (100 to 800Hz) pink noise sensitivity shall be 98dB (1W/
1m). Nominal impedance shall be 8 ohms. The loudspeaker shall
employ a low-mass 100mm (4 in.) diameter voice coil of edgewound
copper-clad aluminum ribbon of 30mm (1.2 in.) winding depth, on an
aluminum coil form, operating in a flux density of 13,600 gauss. The
voice coil shall be driven by a powerful ferrite magnet. Effective moving
mass shall be 0.145kg. The cone suspension shall be made of
exceptionally high-compliance, damped-cloth surround.
FREQUENCY (H
Z
)
Distortion response is measured with a swept sine wave signal, at 60 watts (-10dB
power) & 1 meter, and while the speaker unit is mounted in an 200-liter sealed box
