Frequency response
This measurement is useful in determining
how accurately a given unit reproduces an
input signal. The frequency response of the
SSE 26 is measured at a distance of 1 meter
using a 1 Watt (into the nominal impedance)
swept-sine input signal. As shown in figure
1, the selected drivers in the SSE 26 combine
to give a smooth frequency response from
100 Hz to 17 kHz.
Directivity
Beamwidth is derived from the -6 dB points
from the polar plots (see figure 3), which are
measured in a whole-space anechoic
environment. Q and Directivity Index are
plotted for the on-axis measurement
position. These are specifications provide a
reference to the coverage characteristics of
the unit and provide insight into proper
placement and installation in the chosen
environment. The blending of the
components of the SSE 26 exhibit a
desirable beamwidth and directivity (figures
3 & 4) suitable for sound reinforcement
applications.
Power handling
There are many different approaches to
power handling ratings. Peavey rates this
loudspeaker system's power handling using
a full-range form of the AES Standard 2-
1984. Using audio band 20 Hz to 20 kHz
pink noise with peaks of four times the RMS
level, this strenuous test signal assures the
user that every portion of this system can
withstand today's high technology music.
This rating is contingent upon having a
minimum of 3 dB available amplifier
headroom.
Harmonic distortion
Second and third harmonic distortions vs.
frequency are plotted in figures 5 & 6 for two
power levels. Ten percent (10%) of rated
input power and either one percent (1%) of
rated input power or 1 Watt, whichever is
greater. Distortion is read from the graph as
the difference between the fundamental
signal (frequency response) and the desired
harmonic. As an example, a distortion curve
that is down 40 dB from the fundamental is
equivalent to 1% distortion.
Mounting
Caution: Before attempting to mount this
speaker, consult a certified structural
engineer. The speaker may fall due to
improper installation, resulting in serious
injury and property damage. DO NOT
suspend or mount any other product or
device from this SSE 26 enclosure. The
maximum enclosure angle 45°. Use only
Grade 5 hardware or better. All associated
rigging is the responsibility of others.
