Page 26: Operating Mode Selector
All the drivers are tested with a crest factor of 2; to obtain this value, equalling a 6dB dynamics between average and peak value, an amplifier with twice the RMS power indicated in the table shall be used. The amplifier recommended by FBT permits obtaining at least a 6dB dynamics in high SPL applications to keep a high sound quality. - Page 27 ARCHON 208S / 215S CONNECTIONS THE ARCHON 208S / 215S ARE NOT EQUIPPED WITH INTERNAL PASSIVE CROSSOVER; A CONNECTION TO THE POWER UNIT WITHOUT PROCESSOR WILL DAMAGE THE SPEAKERS.

Page 28: Rotatable Horn
110 / 112 / 115 ROTATABLE HORN The ARCHON series 110 / 112 / 115 models feature a constant directivity rotatable horn. The constant directivity horn permits getting a response whose frequency is almost constant in every direction covered by horn operation and a balanced sound timbre emission over the whole coverage angle. - Page 29 ARCHON GLOSSARY AMPLIFIER CLASS Power amplifiers are mainly classified according to the type of output stage. Such classification is based on how long output devices remain active during each cycle. The most common classes of professional sound amplifiers are: AB, AB+B, D, G, H.
