    For example, since the input impedance of a single DS-2P is 10 kΩ, cascading 20 DS-2Ps produces a brown = hot blue = balanced input impedance of 500 Ω. If a 150 Ω source is neutral used, the 500 Ω...

Contact Meyer Sound for more information about RMS. The polarity of the 650-P depends on the height and distance of the measurement position from the the flown and subwoofer systems.
  • Page 11 Phase poppers are, therefore, not useful for performing phase measurements on an individual loudspeaker or a full-range sound system containing one or more cross- overs. If necessary, apply a phase popper only to loud- speakers with identical drivers without a crossover, and check the system’s overall phase response with a frequency analyzer and/or listening test.
