How our Loudspeakers are
Measured
1. Power handling
Full-bandwidthpinknoise,meetingtheIEC
Standard#268-5,isappliedtotheloudspeaker
and amplified to a level at the loudspeaker
terminals corresponding to the power handling of
the loudspeaker. The loudspeaker must show no
visible damage or measurable loss of performance
after 100 hours of continuous testing.
2. Sensitivity
Full-bandwidth pink noise is applied to the loud-
speaker with its active equalization curve and
amplified to a level at the loudspeaker terminals
corresponding to 1 watt, as referenced to the
nominal impedance. The average sound pressure
level(dB-SPL)ismeasuredat1meterfromthe
speaker in an anechoic environment.
3. Maximum SPL
Full-bandwidth pink noise is applied to the loud-
speaker with its active equalization curve and
amplified to a level at the loudspeaker terminals
corresponding to the long-term rated power
handling of the speaker. The average sound
pressurelevel(dB-SPL)ismeasuredat1meter
from the speaker in an anechoic environment.
4. Frequency range
Sine waves are injected into the loudspeaker, and
the level is adjusted to 1 watt, as referenced to
the nominal impedance, and the level measured
at1meter.Resultinggraphissmoothedby0.05
