Atlas Sound PD60AT – 60-Watt Compression Driver with 70V Transforme...
Product Overview
The Atlas Sound PD60AT is a fully environment-resistant 60-watt compression driver engineered for large format horn speakers in high-ambient-noise indoor and outdoor public address applications. Paired with an integrated 70V line-matching transformer, this horn driver covers a frequency range of 100 Hz to 3.7 kHz and delivers consistent high-SPL performance for stadium, campus, industrial, and transportation facility PA systems. The Vari-Tap Control/Connect Center and varnish-impregnated transformer ensure reliability and installation flexibility across a wide range of 70V distributed system architectures.
Product Description
The PD60AT compression driver is purpose-built for large-format horn loudspeaker systems where power and environmental durability are priorities. Its 60-watt power rating and 100 Hz to 3.7 kHz frequency response make it appropriate for both speech-intelligibility-critical paging systems and general public address in environments with significant background noise. The integrated Atlas Sound Vari-Tap Control/Connect Center features a screwdriver-selectable ohms/watts switch for easy tap selection without additional tools. The 70V line-matching transformer is varnish-impregnated for maximum environment resistance and long service life. A protective terminal cover with built-in strain relief secures cable connections against vibration and weather exposure. The driver terminates in a standard 1-3/8"-18 thread male coupling for direct compatibility with screw-on large format horns. The die-cast housing and polycarbonate components provide mechanical protection in permanent outdoor installations. At 8 lbs with dimensions of 6.9" H x 6.4" W, the PD60AT is a compact but powerful driver appropriate for both new construction and retrofit horn system upgrades. The 2 kOhm impedance is measured at the transformer primary.
