TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS KF400a
ARCHITECTURAL SPECIFICATIONS
The self-powered, biamplified 3-way full range loudspeaker
systems shall incorporate a 15-in LF transducer, an 8-in MF
cone and a 1.4-in exit/75mm voice coil HF compression driver.
The LF driver shall be mounted in a vented enclosure tuned
for optimum low frequency response. The MF driver shall be
loaded into a midrange horn constructed of 3mm birch
plywood backed with high density polyurethane foam that
shall incorporate a conical/hexagonal displacement/phase
plug. The HF driver shall be loaded on a constant directivity
horn with a nominal coverage pattern of 65 (h) x 45 (v).
An internal passive filter network shall provide fourth order
acoustical crossover and system equalization between the
LF and MF subsystems.
System frequency response shall vary no more than 3 dB
from 62 Hz to 20 kHz measured on axis. The system shall be
capable of producing a peak output of 126.0 dB SPL on axis
at 1 meter.
The internal active signal processing shall provide complex,
asymmetrical LF/MF to HF crossover. The internal amplifica-
tion module shall provide class H amplifier topology, linear
power supply and vertical N-channel MOSFET output devices
each of which is load-matched to the subsystem it powers.
Amplifier power shall provide substantial headroom such that
transient peaks are reproduced with the appropriate dynamic
range.
Driver/amplifier protection systems shall be actuated by
sensors continuously monitoring Voltage and current in real
time. Driver/amplifier protection systems shall gradually apply
compressor/limiter-based soft clipping circuitry to minimize
changes to the output sound characteristics when engaged.
The amplifier module shall be designed so that most
components shall be accessed by removing the rear panel.
The input circuitry shall be of a modular design to allow for
future upgrades. The entire amplifier module shall be easily
removable as a discreet unit.
The loudspeaker enclosure shall be trapezoidal in shape. It
shall be constructed of 15mm thickness void-free cross-grain-
laminated Baltic birch plywood and shall employ extensive
internal bracing. It shall be finished in black polyurethane.
The AC power input connector shall be Neutrik PowerCon.
Auto-sensing power input shall operate from 95-125 VAC and
190-250 VAC. The audio input connector shall be a female
XLR (pin 2 hot) chassis-mount connector. A complementary
male XLR chassis-mount connector (pin 2 hot) shall be
provided for audio output (loop through). Five (5)
3-position flytracks (2 top and 3 bottom) shall be installed
in the enclosure. The front of the loudspeaker shall be
covered with a powder-coated perforated steel grill.
The self-powered, biamplified 3-way full range loudspeaker
shall be the EAW model KF400a.
