909-8B/16B GENERAL PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Altec Lansing's 909-8B and 909-16B small format, high frequency,
compression drivers are designed for use in professional sound
reinforcement systems where both wide bandwidth and high acoustic
output level are essential. When used with Altec Lansing Mantaray
frequency horns, the energy produced by these drivers can be directed to
cover an audience accurately to the highest threshold of human hearing.
Their wide range response, when complemented by Altec Lansing low
frequency loudspeaker systems, will provide smooth reproduction of
speech and music for installations in auditoriums, churches, stadiums, and
arenas.
The robust Pascalite diaphragm extends the driver's power handling
capability, while maintaining superior high frequency bandwidth. The
compact magnetic motor-structure, utilizing a 2.5 lbs. (1.1 kg) ferrite
magnet, provides a 1.8 T gap flux density. An exclusive Tangerine
phasing-plug assures a smooth upper range response.
The excellent performance characteristics of these drivers make them the
high frequency component of choice for small to medium size sound
systems when premium dynamic reproduction is required.

MR II 564B GENERAL PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Altec Lansing's MR II 564B Mantaray
efficient mid and high frequency response with proper loading down to
500 Hz, plus excellent directivity control over its 60°H x 40°V coverage
pattern.
The geometry of the MR II 564B reduces the problem of high frequency
beaming and maintains uniform dispersion at all frequencies within the
rated frequency range. Therefore, the same quality sound will be heard
by listeners sitting off-axis and on-axis to the MANTARAY
Altec Lansing's 21216B adapter is constructed of heavy gauge aluminum.
This adapter is the perfect choice for coupling the 909-8B and 909-16B to
our MANTARAY TM series horns.
