Its high-frequency section uses the PRD500 planar ribbon transducer designed and manufactured by SLS Audio, paired with a 12-inch woofer. The front-ported enclosure extends bass to 40 Hz and is well suited to theaters of 50 to 75 seats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow does the Dolby SLS SYS50 work?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA passive crossover divides the signal between the 12-inch low-frequency driver and the PRD500 ribbon, so each System 50 runs from a single amplifier channel at 8 ohms. The planar ribbon gives fast transient accuracy and a smooth high-frequency response, and it keeps more direct sound reaching the audience even with screen spreading.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCoverage is 90° horizontal by 40° vertical (-6 dB, excluding screen scattering). Sensitivity is 99 dB, power handling is 120 W (31 V) AES\/2, and calculated output reaches 120 dB continuous and 126 dB peak at one metre. The 13-ply 3\/4-inch Baltic birch cabinet has a flat black latex finish, and an included U-bracket makes installation and aiming straightforward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree System 50 units typically form the left, center and right screen channels.
