FREQUENCY RESPONSE This measurement is useful in
determining how accurately a given enclosure reproduces an input signal. The frequency response of the SPª Subcompact 18 is measured at 1 meter using a 2.82 volt
POWER HANDLING
There are many different approaches to power handling ratings. Peavey Electronics rates this unitÕs system power handling using a modified form of the AES Standard
signal contains large amounts of very low frequency energy, effectively simulating the frequency content of live music situations. The full measure of high frequencies in the test signal allows for exposure of the speaker system to synthesized tones that may extend beyond audibility. This rating is contingent on having a minimum of 3 dB of amplifier headroom available to ensure that clipping does not occur.
MOUNTING
Caution: The SPª Subcompact 18 is not designed to be suspended overhead.
ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING SPECIFICATIONS
The loudspeaker system shall have an operating bandwidth of 47 Hz to
190 Hz. The nominal output level shall be 99 dB when measured at a distance of one meter with an input of one watt.
The nominal impedance shall be 8 ohms. The maximum continuous power handling shall be 350 watts, maximum program power of 700 watts and a peak power input of at least 1,400 watts, with a minimum amplifier headroom of 3 dB. The nominal radiation geometry shall be 180 degrees in the horizontal plane and 180 degrees in the vertical plane. The outside dimensions shall be 28 inches high by 23.75 inches wide by
23.75inches deep. The weight shall be 109 pounds. The loudspeaker system shall be a Peavey model
SPª Subcompact 18.
