NEXO NX242 DIGITAL CONTROLLER FOR GEO T Page 39/63
Other “loudspeaker management” DSP devices do not provide
the algorithms that the NX242 uses to optimise the cardioid
operation of the GEO T4805, CD18 and CD12.
GEO T4805 LF and CD18 dispersion are digitally set to a
cardioid pattern by adjusting the front and rear 8” loudspeakers
phase and amplitude relationship. Maximum attenuation is
achieved at 180°; average rear to front attenuation is more
than 12 dB.
GEO T2815 low frequency directional behaviour is achieved
by using rear radiating acoustic resistor. These are designed
so that LF dispersion is cardioid. Maximum attenuation is
achieved at 180°, average rear to front attenuation is more
than 12 dB.
4.3 GEO T NX242 Setups description
4.3.1 GEO T4805
Hardware configuration
• Input can be selected in the MENU 3.2 (L, R
or L+R)
• Output 1 drives the rear-firing LF 8 inch long
excursion neodymium cone transducers
