DESCRIPTION

The DTH® 4115f was designed as a true minimum profile loudspeaker. It measures only 18-3/4" at its widest point up front while tapering to a mere 9" at the back. Because of the trapezoidal geometry of these enclosures, building arrays is much easier. This shape also greatly reduces standing wave buildup within the enclosure.

The DTH® 4115f is a two-way system consisting of a 1505-8 DT Black Widow® woofer and a 44XTcompression driver coupled to a CH®-7 horn. This is a constant directivity 80° x 40° horn. An internal passive crossover is utilized to enable the system to run full-range, directly from the factory. By flipping a switch on the input plate, the enclosure can quickly and easily be converted to biamp mode. High power handling polypropylene capacitors are used throughout the crossover. This results in a cleaner sound, especially at high power levels as well as improved reliability.

Two Neutrik® four-conductor Speakon® connectors are provided for input to the speaker. One of these connectors can be utilized to parallel or “daisy chain” another enclosure, if desired. (If used in this manner, the amplifier must be rated for operation into the resulting load).

Black polyurethane coating covers

the DTH® 4115f. This is a low-wear, high-abrasion resistant coating, similar to those used in the automotive industry. A heavy-duty, 16-gauge metal grille and a polyester foam overlay dresses off the enclosure and provides superior protection for the drivers.

All this combines to give you a great looking and great sounding loudspeaker perfectly suited for any sound reinforcement application.

DIRECTIVITY

Beamwidth and directivity factors are derived from the -6 dB points from the polar points (see Figure 3), which are measured in a whole-space, anechoic environment. These are specifications that provide a reference to the coverage characteristics of the enclosure. These parameters provide insight for proper enclosure placement and installation in the chosen environment. The blending of the components of the DTH® 4115f exhibits a desirable beamwidth and directivity factor (Figures 3 and 4), suitable for all high-level sound reinforcement applications.

FREQUENCY RESPONSE

This measurement is useful in determining how accurately a given enclosure reproduces at an input signal. The frequency response of the DTH® 4115f is measured at 1 meter using a 2.8-volt swept-sine input. As shown in Figure 1, the selected drivers in the DTH® 4115f combine to give a smooth frequency response between

55 Hz and 18 kHz.

POWER HANDLING

There are many different approaches to power handling ratings. Peavey rates this speaker system’s power handling using a modified form of the AES Standard 2-1984. Utilizing audio band (20 Hz to 20 kHz) pink noise with peaks over 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. The test 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 allow for exposure of the speaker system to synthesized tones that may extend beyond audibility. This rating is contingent on having a minimum 3 dB of amplifier headroom available.
