1
Full bandwidth pink noise is applied to the
3
Panaray system digital controller and amplified to
a level at the speaker terminals corresponding to
the long-term rated power handling of the speaker.
The average sound pressure level (dB-SPL) is
measured at 1 meter from the speaker in an
anechoic environment. The peak maximum
acoustic output is the peak SPL possible with the
maximum recommended amplifier power using
musical program material.
2
Full bandwidth pink noise is applied to the
Panaray system digital controller and amplified to
a level at the speaker terminals corresponding to
one watt as referenced to the nominal impedance.
The average sound pressure level (dB-SPL) is
measured at 1 meter from the speaker in an
anechoic environment.
3
Full bandwidth noise, meeting the International
Electrotechnical Commission standard #268-5, is
applied to the Panaray system digital controller
and amplified to a voltage at the speaker terminals
corresponding to the power handling of the
speaker. The speaker must show no visible or
measurable loss of performance after 100 hours of
continuous testing.
4
International versions use XLR-type connectors.
