{"product_id":"martin-audio-xe500","title":"Martin Audio XE500","description":"\u003cp class=\"padTop\" itemprop=\"description\"\u003e Combining very high output capability with exceptional sonic performance, coverage control and consistency, the \u003cstrong\u003eXE500\u003c\/strong\u003e\n is the ultimate, high SPL stage monitor. Its Coaxial Differential \nDispersion drive unit comprises a powerful 15” (380mm) LF driver with a \n3.5” (89mm) voice coil, and a 1.4” (35mm) exit HF compression driver \nwith a 3” (75mm) pure titanium diaphragm. Both drivers feature powerful \nneodymium magnet structures to maximise performance and reduce weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe loudspeaker shall be a bi-amplified, two-way system ultilising \nCoaxial Differential Dispersion technology and shall be operated in \nconjunction with a dedicated controller amplifier.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts transducers\n shall consist of a reflex-loaded 15” low frequency driver and a \ncoaxially-mounted 1.4” exit high frequency compression driver loaded by a\n static waveguide that merges with moving waveguides added to the cone \nof the low frequency driver to define the HF horn geometry. A third \nstatic waveguide shall increase the effective size of the horn mouth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHorizontal\n dispersion shall vary from 60° to 30° and vertical dispersion shall be \n70°. The on-axis frequency response shall be 62Hz-18kHz +\/- 3dB. The \nloudspeaker shall produce a maximum SPL of 143dB peak calculated at 1 \nmetre. Power handling shall be 550W AES, 2200W peak. Rated impedance \nshall be LF: 4 ohms, HF: 8 ohms. Input connectors shall be NL4 type.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe\n enclosure shall be made from plywood and incorporate bar handles and \nthreaded inserts. The drivers shall be protected by a perforated steel \ngrille with scrim cloth backing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDimensions, including feet, (W x H\n x D) shall be 641mm x 367mm x 583mm (25.2in x 14.4in x 22.9in).
