HF-75High Frequency Component

Introduction

The HF-75 is the high frequency component of the SC-412 and SC-422 two- way, biamplified screen channel loudspeakers for high performance cinema applications. The system is shipped as two separate components: the HF-75 high frequency system and the LF-4115 or LF-4215 woofer system.

The HF-75 high-frequency system features a large format, 3” (75mm) tita- nium diaphragm compression driver mounted on a custom designed high- frequency cinema horn with an adjustable pan and tilt bracket. The horn fea- tures broad horizontal and vertical coverage angles to ensure coverage of every seat in the auditorium. The horn is a low-distortion waveguide provid- ing highly articulate dialogue without the “honky” coloration associated with conventional horn loudspeakers.

The HF-75 includes a driver protection and equalization network. DC block- ing capacitors protect against DC or low-frequency signals that would likely destroy an unprotected driver. Power limiter circuitry protects the driver from over-powering and a response correction filter smoothes the frequency response of the horn/driver combination. The driver and equalization net- work provides for more reliable operation, ensuring the show will go on.

The HF-75 components come pre-assembled to reduce field assembly time. Three bolts are all that are required to secure the HF-75 to the top of the low frequency enclosure.

Mounting

Refer to the illustration for mounting information. The HF-75 attaches to the top of the LF-4115 or LF-4215 with three 5/16-18 bolts, 0.75” long, with lock washers. We recommend the use of serviceable thread locking compound when installing the bolts to prevent loosening due to vibration. Aim the horn in the horizontal plane (pan) before tightening. Adjust the vertical tilt with the bracket adjustment.

Install in accordance with QSC Audio Product’s instructions and a licensed, professional engineer. Only use attachments, mounts, accessories, or brackets specified by QSC Audio Products, Inc. Refer all servicing to qualified personnel. Ser- vicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way.

WARNING! Before placing, installing, rigging, or suspending any speaker product, inspect all hardware, suspension, cab- inets, transducers, brackets and associated equipment for damage. Any missing, corroded, deformed or non-load rated component could significantly reduce the strength of the installation, placement, or array. Any such condition severely reduces the safety of the installation and should be immediately corrected. Use only hardware which is rated for the loading conditions of the installation and any possible short-term unexpected overloading. Never exceed the rating of the hardware or equipment. Consult a licensed, profes- sional engineer when any doubt or questions arise regarding a physical equipment installation.

SC-412 specifications

The QSC Audio SC-412 is a high-performance loudspeaker designed specifically for professional audio applications. With its robust construction and advanced technologies, it delivers excellent sound quality, making it a popular choice for live performances, installations, and event spaces.

One of the standout features of the SC-412 is its powerful driver configuration. It includes two 12-inch direct-radiating woofers that provide deep, punchy bass response, complemented by a 1.75-inch exit compression driver mounted on a high-frequency horn. This configuration ensures a wide frequency range, enabling the SC-412 to reproduce everything from subtle vocal nuances to explosive rock guitar riffs with clarity and depth.

A key technology used in the SC-412 is QSC's proprietary Directivity Matched Transition (DMT) design. This advanced engineering approach ensures consistent directivity across the frequency range, providing even sound coverage in various acoustic environments. As a result, audiences experience a balanced and immersive listening experience, regardless of their position in the venue.

The cabinet construction of the SC-412 further contributes to its performance. It is built from durable, ply-birch wood and features a rugged finish, enhancing both aesthetics and durability. The enclosure is designed to minimize resonance, delivering accurate sound reproduction while ensuring that the cabinet itself does not color the audio signal. Additionally, the SC-412 includes a rear rigging point, making it easy to install in various orientations, whether flying or on a stand.

In terms of connectivity, the SC-412 features both speakON and binding post connectors, offering versatility for various setups and ensuring compatibility with a wide range of amplifiers and mixers. The loudspeaker's nominal impedance of 8 ohms allows for flexible system design and configuration.

The QSC Audio SC-412 is an excellent choice for audio professionals seeking reliability and performance. Its advanced features, like the DMT design and high-quality components, make it suitable for demanding applications in both live sound and fixed installations. With its ability to deliver powerful, clear, and consistent audio, the SC-412 stands out as a versatile solution for sound reinforcement needs. Whether used for concerts, corporate events, or permanent installations, it delivers the quality and reliability that audio professionals have come to expect from QSC.
