Due to Martin Audio’s policy of continuing improvement, we reserve the right to alter these specifications without prior notice. Martin Audio is committed to refining state of the art sound reinforcement, combining in-depth product and field applications research with advanced manufacturing techniques. Every Martin Audio product is built to the highest manufacturing standards and rigorously tested to ensure that it meets the performance criteria specified in the design.

The loudspeaker system shall be of the three-way bi- amp type consisting of one 15" (380mm) direct radiating reflex loaded low frequency transducer, one 6.5" (165mm) cone driver mounted on a constant directivity horn flare with integral toroidal waveguide and one 1" (25mm) exit HF compression driver mounted on a constant directivity horn in a trapezoidal plywood enclosure. The enclosure shall be fitted with an integral pole mounting socket and threaded inserts for wall and ceiling mounting. The loudspeaker shall be operated with a separate electronic controller providing a 650Hz crossover between low and mid/high frequency sections. Mid and high frequency sections shall be integrated by an internal 3.3kHz passive crossover network.

Performance of the loudspeaker system with its electronic controller shall meet or exceed the following criteria:

Frequency response measured 1 metre on axis shall be 55Hz-18kHz ±3dB.

High frequency dispersion at -6dB points shall be 65˚H x 40˚V.

Power handling shall be 400W AES, 1600W peak LF, 150W AES, 600W peak MF/HF.

Rated impedance shall be 8 ohms LF, 16 ohms MF/HF. Maximum SPL measured at 1 metre on axis shall be 125dB continuous, 131dB peak.

WW33 specifications

The Martin Audio WW33 is a pioneering addition to the world of professional audio systems, specifically designed for versatile applications in live events, installations, and more. Renowned for its exceptional performance and innovative technologies, the WW33 speaker system is engineered to deliver high-quality sound across various environments, making it a go-to choice for sound professionals and installation experts alike.

At the core of the WW33's design is its advanced waveguide technology, which ensures superior dispersion characteristics and consistency across a wide listening area. This feature is critical for both large venues and smaller intimate settings alike, allowing clear sound reproduction without dead spots or imbalances. The integrated drivers are meticulously selected for their ability to deliver crisp highs and powerful lows, providing a well-rounded audio experience that captivates audiences.

One of the standout features of the WW33 is its dual 15-inch drivers, which provide copious low-end output without sacrificing clarity. This configuration allows operators to achieve a balanced mix, where vocals and instruments can shine through, even in a dense sonic environment. In addition, the high-frequency section utilizes a 1-inch throat compression driver, which is paired with a 90° x 50° rotatable horn. This versatility gives sound engineers the flexibility to adapt the system for different setups and audience sizes, maximizing the audio experience.

The WW33 also incorporates Martin Audio's proprietary technologies, such as the integrated DSP (Digital Signal Processing) and advanced crossover networks. These features allow for precise tuning of the speaker system, enabling users to achieve optimal sound clarity and coherence. The DSP also facilitates seamless integration with other Martin Audio products, making it an ideal component for larger, scalable audio systems.

Durability and build quality are key characteristics of the WW33. Designed with rugged materials, it is well-suited for the demands of touring and installation environments. Additionally, its sleek and modern aesthetic ensures that it can fit seamlessly into any decor, whether on stage or in a commercial space.

In summary, the Martin Audio WW33 is a highly versatile speaker system, featuring advanced waveguide technology, powerful dual 15-inch drivers, integrated DSP, and a robust design. Its ability to deliver exceptional sound quality across a variety of applications makes it a valuable asset for sound professionals looking to elevate their audio delivery in any setting. With the WW33, Martin Audio continues its tradition of excellence, providing innovative solutions for the modern audio landscape.
