Artec 526
LOUDSPEAKER SYSTEM
The D.A.S. Artec 526 is a Two-way vented
loudspeaker system designed for
applications covering speech reinforcement
and program reproduction.
The low end utilizes two high efficiency 6”
low frequency speakers with 2” voice coil.
The high end makes use of a 1” exit
compression driver with 1.75” titanium
diaphragm, coupled to a 80º x 80º horn.
TWO-WAY VENTED
>> Two-way vented
loudspeaker system
>> 2 x 6” cone speaker
>> 1” exit compression
driver with constant
directivity horn
>> 400 W power handling
The unit has a robust grille design
internally lined with acoustically
transparent filter cloth to protect the
loudspeaker components. The covering is
resistant to wear and tear, provides
protection from dust and dirt.
4 integrated rigging points that accept
10M forged steel eyebolts or “U” braket
make suspension in either the horizontal
or vertical positions safe and simple.

Frequency Response
Shows the frequency response
at 1m of a unit radiating to
an anechoic environement (4p)
and driven by a 1w (4 V) swept
sine signal, and impedance curve.
For better detail, only light
smoothing (1/12th octave)
has been used.
Distortion
Shows the Second Harmonic
Distortion(grey) and Third
Harmonic Distortion (dotted)
curvesfor a unit driven at 10%
of its nominal power rating.
Rised 20dB for clarity.
Directivity
Shows normalized horizontal
isobar plot

NOTES: Frequency response measured at 4m (13.12ft). For better detail, only light smoothing
(1/12th octave) has been used. Polars were acquired by placing the unit on a computer controlled
turntable inside a 300 m (10594 ft ) anechoic chamber. Measurement distance is 4m (13.12ft).
