It belongs to Dolby's DSR immersive surround series and is typically used for side surrounds. Its patented asymmetrical waveguide covers 60° at the top and 120° at the bottom horizontally, with 60° vertical, for linear, targeted volume across the seating area.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow does the Dolby DSR1260 work?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eImmersive formats place more of the story in the surround channels, so surround speakers need full bandwidth and even coverage. The DSR1260 pairs a custom high-sensitivity 12-inch low-frequency driver with a low-distortion 44.4 mm high-frequency driver on a baffle-mounted asymmetrical waveguide. The narrow top of the pattern throws to distant seats while the wide bottom covers seats close to the wall, keeping level consistent across rows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe speaker can be mounted vertically or horizontally so it stays out of the projector light path, and the high-frequency horn rotates within the enclosure to keep the best coverage on the most seats. A passive crossover and top-of-cabinet input plate with a high-current terminal make it plug-and-play from one amplifier channel. It is rated at 525 W @ 64.8 Vrms into 8 ohms, with 127 dB continuous half-space SPL at one metre.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProcessing typically comes from a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/creationnetworks.net\/products\/dolby-atmos-cinema-processor-cp950a\"\u003eDolby CP950A\u003c\/a\u003e, with amplification from a Dolby Multichannel Amplifier such as the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/creationnetworks.net\/products\/dolby-professional-32-channels-dma32301-multichannel-amplifier\"\u003eDMA32301\u003c\/a\u003e.
