The 16C 2-way passive column loudspeaker is the
smallest in the Series housing four 4” neodymium drivers and a 0.75” compression
driver mounted on a CD horn.
The HF horn has a nominal dispersion of 90° x 40° (h x v). The 4" drivers
are arranged in a unique cardioid setup radiating through waveguide elements at
the front and damped ports at the rear of the cabinet.
This design provides a constant directivity pattern of 90° in the
horizontal plane with a broadband attenuation to the rear of approximately 18
dB.
A cardioid dispersion pattern produces minimal energy behind the
loudspeaker, reducing reflections and resulting in balanced level distribution
across the listening area while increasing gain before feedback when working
with open microphones.
The 16C loudspeaker enclosure is constructed from an extruded aluminium
back and a metal baffle, while the front and sides of the cabinet are protected
by a metal grill.
The rear of the cabinet features continuous T-slot rails for mounting
purposes and a 4-pole Phoenix combicon terminal connector.
The xC-Series loudspeakers are available in white or black as standard, or
can be provided with the Special Colour (SC) option that can be executed in all
RAL colours.
