The SP 6 has a trapezoidal-shaped
enclosure, which reduces the build-up of
standing waves inside the enclosure to
minimize mid-bass and mid-range
coloration. It is constructed of nine-ply
Baltic birch and is covered with a
durable black carpet. Use of the Baltic
birch plywood provides an enclosure
that is lighter than those made from
OSB or MDF. The enclosure corners are
reinforced with metal corners, and a
black powder-coated, perforated metal
grille covers the lower half of the system
to protect the woofer from external
damage.

Watts of continuous power handling
(AES Std 2-1984), the woofer section can
handle a lot of power. The mid-range is
carried by a 6 1/2" professional-grade,
horn-loaded speaker with a phase plug
and ferrofluid cooling, providing high
articulation in the vocals. The high
frequencies are handled by an Rx 22 2"
titanium diaphragm compression driver
utilizing ferrofluid cooling. Both the mid-
range and the high frequency drivers are
coupled to a Quadratic Throat constant
directivity horn(U.S. patent #6,059,069),

distortion and good high frequency
dispersion. These horns both have an
asymmetrical vertical polar response,

This measurement is useful in
determining how accurately a given unit
reproduces an input signal. The
frequency response of the SP 6 is
measured at a distance of 1 meter using
a 1 Watt (into the nominal impedance)
swept-sine input signal. As shown in
figure 1, the selected drivers in the SP 6
combine to give a smooth frequency
response from 50 Hz to 15 kHz.

Power Handling
There are many different approaches to
power handling ratings. Peavey rates
this loudspeaker system's power
handling using a full-range form of the
AES Standard 2-1984. Using audio band
20 Hz to 20 kHz pink noise, with peaks
of four times the RMS level, this
strenuous test signal assures the user
that every portion of this system can
withstand today's high technology
music. This rating is contingent upon
having a minimum of 3 dB available
amplifier headroom.

Harmonic Distortion
Second and third harmonic distortions
vs. frequency are plotted in figures 3 &
4 for two power levels: ten percent
(10%) of rated input power and either
one percent (1%) of rated input power
or 1 Watt, whichever is greater.
Distortion is read from the graph as the
difference between the fundamental
signal (frequency response) and the
desired harmonic. For example, a
distortion curve that is down 40 dB
from the fundamental is equivalent to
1% distortion.
