Impact 50

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The Impact 50 is an ultra-compact passive sound reinforcement loudspeaker designed for applications wherever a very small enclosure is required to reproduce sound. The Impact 50 drive units are a 5” high efficiency low/mid transducer and a 14mm liquid cooled polymer dome tweeter. It includes an internal first order high pass filter network designed to give a very clean transition between the two drive units while ensuring that the tweeter is protected from harmful low frequency signals.

The Impact 50 is intended for fixed installations and as such is supplied as standard with the WB-50 adjustable wall mounting bracket, allowing horizontal and vertical adjustment.

The Impact 50S is a magnetically shielded version, and may be safely used for multi-media applications in close proximity to television screens and computer monitors.

The constant voltage version (Impact 50T) has been designed for use in 70 volt and 100 volt distributed systems where long cable runs, and a large number of loudspeaker units, make the use of a low impedance speaker impractical. The internal line transformer is a high quality type offering wide bandwidth and three power tappings.

A weatherproof option is available for use outdoors or under conditions of high humidity. It is supplied with a rust-proof grille and stainless steel fixings.

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

The Impact 50 is a passive loudspeaker system. This means that it requires only one amplifier channel for correct operation, the frequency splitting between the low frequency driver and the high frequency driver being accomplished by the internal passive crossover network built into each enclosure.

Passive subwoofer enclosures may be used in conjunction with the Impact 50 in order to extend the frequency range from the system. The Impact 110.2, a dual- coil, two-channel band-pass subwoofer, is recommended for this purpose.

When using the Impact 110.2, additional power amplifiers are not required since the subwoofer contains passive crossovers for both left and right channels, allowing Impact 50 speakers to be connected as satellite units.

If subwoofer enclosures are used in a bi-amplified system in conjunction with Impact 50 enclosures, additional amplifier channels and external electronic crossovers will be required. The Turbosound TMC-T1000 power amplifier and the LMS-A6 loudspeaker management system are recommended for this purpose.
