TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS FL103
DESCRIPTION
A 3-way full range system in a d u al vent, trapezoidal enclosure. In cludes a 15-in woofer (ven ted), a 7-in midran ge cone
(separated vented subenclosure) and a 1-in exit compression driver on a W ave Gui de Plate™. Powering mode is switchable: passive (3-way crossover) or biamplified (passive MF/
HF crossover).
APPLICATIONS
The FL103 delivers extr emely high output an d studio fi delity
from a compact enclosure. True 3-way design dramatically
improves the quality o f speech reprod uction. Mi dran ge venting smooths response at LF/MF crossover. Low “Q” provides
exception ally natur al repr odu ction in perm anen t or portable
applications d emanding the highest quality sound. Comprehensive mounting/suspension hardware. Six year warranty.
Applications include:
Concert Halls Recital Halls
Theaters MultiMedia
Small HOW’s Live Music Club

ARCHITECTURAL SPECIFICATIONS
The three-way full ran g e lou dspeak er system s shall incorporate a 15-in LF transducer, a 7-in cone MF transducer and a
1-in exit compression driver HF transducer.
The LF driver shall be mounted in a vented enclosure tuned
for optimum low frequency response. The MF driver shall be
mounted in a vented subenclosure. The HF driver shall be
loaded on an axis-symmetrical wave gui de plate with a nominal coverage pattern of 100° (conical). An internal passive
filter network shall provid e fourth order acousti cal crossover
and system equalization.
System frequency response shall vary no more than ±3 dB
from 50 Hz to 18 kHz measured on axis. In passive mode,
the loudspeaker shall produce a Sound Pressure Level (SPL)
of 95 dB SPL on axis at 1 meter with a power input of 1
Watt, and shall be capable of producing a peak output of
128 SPL on axis at 1 meter. The loudspeaker shall handle
500 Watts of amplifi er power (AES Stan dard) and shall have
a nominal impedance of 8 Ohms.
In biamped mode, the passive mid/high section shall meet
all passive mode perform ance criteri a. In biamped m ode th e
LF section shall produce a Sound Pressure Level (SPL) of 95
dB on axis at 1 meter with a power input of 1 W att, and shall
be capable of produ cing a peak output of 130 SPL on axis at
1 meter. The LF section in biamped mode shall handle 800
Watts of amplifier power and shall have a nominal impedance of 8 Ohms.
The loudspeaker enclosure shall be trapezoidal in shape. It
shall be constructed of 15mm thi ckness void-free cr oss-grainlaminated Baltic birch plywood and shall employ extensive
internal bracin g. It shall be finished in black catalyzed polyurethane. Input conn ectors shall be dual Neutrik NL4 Speak on.
The system shall includ e a switch allowing in to be operated
in biamp or passive Powerin g mode . A total of six 3-positi on
flytracks (2 each on top, bottom and back) plus twelve 3/
8"-16 threaded moun ting/suspension poin ts (3 each top and
bottom, 2 each sides and back) shall be provided. The system shall include a recessed cup to accept a standmount
pole. The front of the loudspeaker shall be covered with a
vinyl coated perforated steel grill.
The three-way full ran ge loudspeaker shall be th e EAW m odel
FL103.
