VQ 60
The VQ 60 is a full range, three-way loudspeaker system designed for applications which
require very high output capability with class leading pattern control. The VQ 60 is perfectly
suited for use in arrays or singly in demanding music or speech applications.
Unlike line array solutions, the VQ 60 can produce enough power and clarity to be used
individually maintaining your building's aesthetics.
With low frequency extension to 90Hz, the VQ 60 can be combined with various subwoofers
for extended bandwidth.
The VQ 60 can be configured for use in Bi-Amp or Tri-Amp mode, in conjunction with a
suitable digital signal processor (DSP).
Horn design involves balancing compromise…..until now.
Key performance parameters that can be controlled by the designer include:
frequency response (both on and off-axis), horizontal and vertical beamwidth, directivity
index,electrical impedance, harmonic distortion, and low frequency cut-off. Our unique
approach in keeping what is effectively a Dual Concentric behind a single horn gives us
many performance advantages. Performance of the VQ 60 in terms of accuracy & sound
quality is secondto none.
The VQ 60 incorporates a unique driver technology to radiate a coherent single point source
for superior dispersion control when coupled to a PSW™ (Point Source Waveguide). This
advanced design aligns the acoustical centres of the transducers providing a single
coherentwavefront emanating from the throat. The PSW™ waveguide achieves an
optimum balanceof extremely well controlled coverage, smooth frequency response, and
natural sound character.
The low frequency section, two (12”) low frequency transducers, offers high power
handling and low power compression for high continuous SPL capability. A newly designed
LF loading design provides the highest possible sensitivity for low/mid frequency output.
The VQ 60 is part of an expanding line up of VQ products, addressing the requirement for
compact dimensions without compromising performance in any way.
