Speaker
The value shows the maximum input power of the speaker with the program signal.
The value shows the current output power of the amplifier (HF/LF). This power is fed to the speaker. If the peak
current output power exceeds the amplifier's maximum output, the value is shown in red.
Speaker clip indicator: The indicator turns yellow when the peak current output power exceeds the maximum
input power of the speaker. When Sineis selected in the Sourcelist box, the peak current output power is 3
dB (two times) higher than the actual output value. When Pinkis selected, the peak is 6 dB (four times) higher
and the peak is 10 dB (ten times) higher for Music. The peak input capacity of the speaker is 3 dB (two times)
higher than the power rating program value. Comparing these values, the indicator shows whether the current
output power is within the capacity of the speaker.
Directivity of speaker array (Speaker Property - Balloon)
You may check the directional pattern (balloon data) of the speaker array selected in Speaker List for each of the
frequencies selected. The data is displayed in the Balloon view in Speaker Property. These figures are normalized to
the on-axis response. Each of the contour figures for -3 dB, -6 dB and -9 dB for on-axis characteristics are displayed
in red, yellow and green respectively. The view angle of the Balloon view is synchronized with Aspect View.
