A multi-tapping line transformer allows it to be connected to 70V/100V public address systems with different power taps for 40W, 20W and 10W and/or low impedance (12Ω) systems.**
To guarantee the optimal performance and long term reliability in outdoor circumstances, various specific features are provided. The connection of the loudspeaker is performed using a waterproof rotatable AWX-5 connector whereby the desired power tap can be selected depending on the rotation of the connector. Secondly, the 12 drivers receive a special coating to protect them from the elements while an acoustically transparent and water-repellent cloth driver keeps penetrating water at a safe distance.
Further added reliability is achieved by using an aluminum front grill and a stainless steel mounting bracket. Together, these improvements result in a weatherproof IP55 column speaker of exceptional quality and design!
*Given dispersion values are the average beamwidth within the 1 kHz – 4 kHz frequency range (-6 dB - 1/3 oct), which are critical for the speech intelligibility in the main application field of these loudspeakers.
**Due to an optimized calibration, the KYRA12, compared to its predecessor the AXIR, will have a standard low impedance of 12 ohms instead of 6 ohms.
