Equipped with two-conductor twisted-pair network, reporting all
operating parameters of amplifiers to system operator’s
host computer
The loudspeaker shall be a self-powered stage monitor; the
transducers shall consist of two 12-inch diameter cone drivers
and a 4-inch diaphragm compression driver on a 50-degree
symmetrical horn. The loudspeaker system shall incorporate
internal processing electronics and a three-channel amplifier,
one channel for each driver. Processing functions shall include
equalization, phase correction, signal division, and protection
for the high- and low-frequency sections. The crossover point
shall be 1600 Hz.
Each amplifier channel shall be class AB/H with complementary
MOSFET output stages. Burst capability for the low-frequency
channels shall be 500 watts total with nominal 2-ohm resistive
load and 275 watts for the high-frequency channel with
nominal 8-ohm resistive load. Peak power shall be 2550 watts.
Distortion (THD, IM, TIM) shall not exceed 0.02%.
Notes:
Performance specifications for a typical production unit shall
be as follows, measured at 1/3-octave resolution: Operating
frequency range shall be 55 Hz to 18 kHz. Phase response shall
be ±45° from 500 Hz to 16 kHz. Maximum peak SPL shall be
139 dB at 1 meter, half-space loading. Coverage shall be 50
degrees by 50 degrees.
The audio input shall be electronically balanced with a 10 kOhm
impedance and accept a nominal 0 dBV (1 V rms, 1.4 V pk) signal.
Connector shall be XLR (A-3) type female with parallel looping
Male or VEAM all-in-one multipin connector. RF filtering shall
be provided, and CMRR shall be greater than 80 dB from 50 Hz
to 500 Hz. The internal power supply shall perform automatic
voltage selection, EMI filtering, soft current turn-on and surge
suppression. Powering requirements shall be nominal 100, 110
or 230 V AC line current at 50 or 60 Hz. UL and CE operating
voltage range shall be 100 to 240 V AC. Maximum peak current
draw during burst shall be 7.90 A at 115 V AC, 4.10 A at 230 V
AC, and 9.24 A at 100 V AC. Current inrush during soft turn-on
shall not exceed 10 A at 115 V AC. AC power connectors shall be
PowerCon with looping capabilities or VEAM all-in-one multi-
pin connector.
The loudspeaker system shall provide facilities for installing
Meyer Sound’s optional RMS remote monitoring system. All
components shall be mounted in an acoustically vented wedge-
shaped enclosure constructed of premium birch plywood with
a black textured hard-shell finish. The front grille shall be hex
stamped steel with black mesh screen. Dimensions shall be
27.07" wide x 16.11" high x 23.00" deep (688 mm x 409 mm x
584 mm). Weight shall be 108 lbs (49 kg). The enclosure front
angle shall be 40 degrees.
The loudspeaker shall be the Meyer Sound MJF-212A.
1. Recommended maximum operating
frequency range. Response depends
on loading conditions and room
acoustics.
2. Half-space loading measured with
1/3-octave frequency resolution at 4
meters.
3. Measured with music, half-space
loading, referred to 1 meter.
4. At this frequency, the transducers
produce equal sound pressure levels.
5. Power handling is measured under
AES standard conditions: transducers
driven continuously for two hours
with band limited noise signal having
a 6 dB peak-average ratio.
6. Amplifier wattage rating based on
the maximum unclipped burst sine-
wave rms voltage that the amplifier
will produce for at least 0.5 seconds
into the nominal load impedance.
7. Peak power based on the maximum
unclipped peak voltage that the
amplifier will produce for at least 100
milliseconds into the nominal load
impedance.
8. AC power cabling must be of sufficient
gauge so that under burst current rms
conditions, cable transmission losses
do not drop voltage below specified
operating range at the speaker.
