Description
The Altec Lansing DTS200P1 is a two-way,
weather-resistant factory-assembled,
vented-bass. Duplex* system. This compact
system features high sensitivity, high-output
capability and point-source alignment, to
gether with excellent directivity control
down to 1,000 Hz. The coverage at 1,000
Hz is 110° horizontal by 100° vertical, and
the system’s nominal coverage is 90° hori
zontal by 90° vertical. The bass-reflex port
ing extends the low-frequency response to
below 80 Hz or lower if multiple units are
used. The DTS200PI consists of a 305-mm
(12.0-inch) high-power, low-frequency
driver with a coaxially mounted 25.4-mm (1-
inch) compression driver utilizing a 90° x
90°constant-directivity hom. Electrical con
nection to the driver is made by a parallel,
4-pin Neutrik Speakon* connector^ The sys
tem is provided with a 1,500-Hz passive
crossover featuring tweeter protection. The
enclosure is injection molded from white
high-impact polypropylene and lined with
sound-absorbing polyester fill. Threaded 8mm insert mounting points are provided
to conveniently attach the Altec Lansing
MblOO, Mb200, Mb200W, Mb300W or
МЬЗОО suspension kits*. The system may
then be hung as a single unit or as part of a
cluster. The finish of the enclosure is black
textured. The grille is full-face, foam-backed,
black powder-coated metal and is fastened
to the front of the enclosure with screws.
A 100-watt transformer version (DTS200PIX)
is also available. The DTS200PIX consists
of the same components as the DTS200P1
with the addition of a 100-watts transformer
installed internally.

Notes on Measurement Conditions
<s
1. Pink-noise signal, one watt calculated us
ing E^/Zmin, 3.16-nieter measurement distance
O
referred to one meter.
f
2. On axis, one watt calculated using
E^/Zmin, 3.16-meter measurement distance re
s
ferred to one meter, low frequencies corrected
for anechoic-chamber error.
3. This system rating patterned after the
ANSI/EIA RS-426-A 1980 method where the
test signal is pink noise with a 6-dB crest fac
tor over the bandwidth of the system, with
power calculated using
E^/Re x 1.15, for eight
hours (where E is the RMS test voltage and Re
is the dc resistance of the woofer voice coil).
4. This measurement made under the same con
ditions as pressure sensitivity, but at rated
power, and takes into account any power-com
pression effects due to nonlinearities in the sys
tem.
5. Distortion components invalid above
10 kHz. The distortion at any given frequency
may be found by graphically taking the differ
ence between the fundamental and harmonic,
and adding the number of decibels which the
harmonic has been raised on the graph and ap
ply the formula;
percent distortion = 100 x
l_AIVISINC3'
6. When mounting the DTS200PI or
DTS200PIX in a location where a weather-re
sistant system is required, a minimum of five
degree down angle is recommended (see Fig
ure 8). This will aid in the prevention of any
moisture protruding through the foam-backed
grille.
7. It is recommended that after making the
proper connection with the Speakon* connec
tor to the input on the enclosure, a bead of seal
ant should be applied around the connection to
assure a watertight seal.
