Technical Data and

Specification Tools

Technical Data

SoundTube Entertainment strives to provide complete and effective techni- cal information and data to dealers, engineers and designers. All data are available from SoundTube Entertain- ment or at www.soundtube.com.

Data Acquisition

All performance data acquired at SoundTube’s Technical Measurement Center (TMC) are analyzed using a variety of standard measurement tech- niques, including Measured Length

Sequence (MLS) and Time Delay Spectrometry (TDS). Performance, development and data acquisition tools include: Gold Line TEF 20, CLIO, LMS, LEAP, and proprietary modeling software. EASE™ data are acquired through an automated TEF 20/Out- line/EASE™ interface.

EASE™ Data – 3-D polar plots.

SoundTubeSPEC™ – Proprietary SoundTube speaker placement software.

Architectural Specifications

The loudspeaker shall consist of a 165

mm(6.5 in) low-frequency transducer and a 25 mm (1.0 in) high-frequency transducer with a crossover network installed in the ported enclosure. The low-frequency voice coil diameter shall be 25 mm (1.0 in).

Performance specifications of a typical production unit shall be as fol- lows: Useable frequency response shall extend from 60 Hz – 22 kHz (-10 dB, half space, no external equalization). Measured sensitivity (2.83 Volt input, 1 meter) shall be at least 91.5 dB. The speaker shall have a nominal imped-

ance of 8 Ohms and be available for 25, 70.7 & 100 Volt modes with voice coil/8 Ohm direct. The frequency- dividing network shall have a cross- over frequency of 3 kHz with slopes of 12 dB per octave (2nd order) for both low & high pass filters. Rated power capacity shall be at least 90 Watts con- tinuous power (RMS) and conform to EIA-426-B testing. Maximum continu- ous output at 1 meter shall be 111 dB.

Installation for the CM600i shall be by 2-screw blind-mount, constant-ten- sion winged assembly and shall attach to ceiling thickness tolerances ranging from 6.4 mm (0.25 in) to 42.9 mm (1.69 in). The fixed-wing assembly shall be constructed of glass filled ABS material. The external wiring input connector shall be a 4-pin, 5 mm Euroblock for 8 Ohm or distributed systems and shall accept from 10 – 22 gauge wire.

The maximum backcan dimensions shall be no more than 201.7 mm (7.94 in) in height by 296.7 mm (11.68 in) in diameter. The maximum visible dimen- sions shall be no more than 27.5 mm (1.08 in) in height by 375 mm (14.76 in) in diam-
