2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
TOA's H-2 and H-2WP are small, dome-shaped 2-way speakers featuring high sound quality. The H-2 is
designed for indoor use, and the H-2WP is designed for outdoor use.
Note: Protect the H-2WP from rain when installing. (Refer to P. 10 "7.1. Waterproofing".)
3. FEATURES
• The speaker's smooth curved surface allows it to blend in with the interiors of most modern buildings.
• The speaker's small (10 cm) woofer features a magnetic circuit (employing a neodymium magnet) that
ensures powerful low-frequency sound reproduction.
• The one-inch balanced dome tweeter features ferro-fluid to ensure superb transient response characteristics
for clear, high frequency sound output and high power-handling capabilities.
• The speaker's built-in, crossover network circuitry features sharp cut-off characteristics that realize uniform
energy radiation while suppressing unwanted input signals to the woofer or tweeter.
• The speaker is designed with an emphasis on installation ease and safety, as well as easier conduit wiring
when an electrical box is installed.
• The speaker's round mounting base frame allows the speaker to be installed at any mounting angle.
Note: When mounting the H-2WP speaker to a wall, to ensure its watertightness it must not be tilted any
more than 45 degrees up from its downward-facing position.
• A built-in matching transformer permits the speaker to be used for both high- and low-impedance
applications. For low-impedance applications, either the 4 or 16 terminal can be selected. Impedance
can be easily changed from outside the unit.
• Detachable screw terminals facilitate connection. Dual positive and negative terminals also facilitate bridge
connections.
• The H-2's enclosure and front grille are made of fire-resistant ABS (UL Standard 94: V-0 Grade).
• The structure of the speaker's front grille is specially designed for ease of refinishing and repainting.
4. HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
• Avoid using the speaker on the beach because the speaker's life can be greatly shortened by sea breezes.
• The speakers are not magnetically shielded. Install them as far away as possible from television sets or
computer's CRTs to avoid degradation in picture quality.
