EAW products are continually improved. All specifications are therefore subject to change without notice. AS660e/2 pp October 2001 Printed in USA
A bi-amplified (passive mid/high crossover) or tri-amplified
3-way full range system in a trapezoidal enclosure. Includes
2x 12-in woofers (separated vertically), a horn-loaded 10-in
MF cone with Radial Phase Plug™ and a 1.4-in exit/2.5-in
voice coil HF neodymium compression driver on a 60° x 45°
constant directivity horn.
The AS660e is engineered for use in permanent installations.
Optimized subsections provide excellent full range frequency
response in a medium format enclosure. Includes comprehen-
sive 3/8"-16 mounting/suspension points. Six year warranty.
