The compact 8-inch R.25 combines wide frequency response with excellent efficiency and projection ability. The HF driver is coupled to a nominal 90° x 40° horn, and the HF horn assembly is coaxially mounted with the LF driver to minimize interference at crossover. The horn-loaded LF driver delivers better low frequency pattern control, higher sensitivity, higher output, and better vocal projection than typical 8-inch two-way loudspeakers. The R.25 is ideal for use in difficult acoustic environments requiring a small footprint, like stadium concourses and gymnasiums, and offers excellent supplemental reinforcement in larger R SERIES systems.
The R.25-94Z is a 2-way, full-range loudspeaker system designed to provide high quality voice and music reproduction in applications requiring extreme weather resistance. It is designed to withstand longterm exposure to tough, environmental conditions and to provide performance normally associated only with indoor loudspeakers. Both the R.25-94Z and R.25-94TZ have an 8-inch (203mm) cone LF driver and a ¾-inch (20 mm) exit HF compression driver with weather resistant diaphragms. The HF driver is coupled to a nominal 90° x 40° horn. The HF assembly is coaxially mounted with the LF driver. The R.25-94TZ has a built-in multi-tap 200W autoformer for 70V /100V operation and a rotary switch for tap selection.
The R.25-94Z's high efficiency, modest power requirements and 8 Ohm impedance makes it easy to deploy large numbers of loudspeakers using only one amplifier, keeping the overall system costs to a minimum. The large 200W autoformer in the R.25-94TZ allows the loudspeaker to maintain its full high output capability even when running on 70V/100V systems.
