General Description
The speaker used in the SD72 is the next generation of high
performance cone loudspeakers, very similar to the preceding
C-Series speakers. The similarity in the sonic qualities ensures that
contractors and designers who have worked with the Atlas Sound
C-Series in the past will know exactly what to expect when they use the
SD72. Model SD72 is a dual cone, 25 Watts 8" (205mm) loudspeaker
with a 10 oz. (260g) ceramic magnet. It includes a curvelinear, treated
paper cone for lower harmonic distortion. The loudspeaker is also
equipped with a full 1" diameter copper voice coil with a black anodized
aluminum former for better power dissipation. Model SD72 operates
within a frequency response range of 55Hz – 8kHz (±5dB) with a
sensitivity of 97dB and a dispersion angle of 105°. Package includes
factory installed 25V/70.7V line matching transformer with tap selections
ranging from .25 to 5 Watts. It mounts a wide variety of Atlas Sound
round and square baffles and enclosures to meet functional and
aesthetic application requirements.
