MH-Series Stadium Horns
MH large-format horns feature Manifold
®
technology, have
a high “Q” and unifor
m directivity control. Because of their
large mouth size, MH horns maintain their beamwidth to
very low frequencies – down to 250 Hz – reducing bass
“spillover” and increasing intelligibility. The HF-section con-
tains an appr
opriate medium-format HP-horn that accepts
EV two-inch-exit single or dual drivers of the designer´s
choice, extending response to 20.000 Hz. HF drivers must be
ordered separately. The dual driver doubles HF output,
important for very long throws. N/DYM
®
drivers offer the
ultimate output in the upper octaves, important when con-
temporary music is to be heard over long distances. The
large horn size also provides frequency response to 100 Hz,
typically eliminating the need for supplemental low-frequen-
cy systems. The mid-bass section featur
es Aperiodic
Enhancer™ phase plug. It is responsible for the extended
high-frequency response of the mid-band section. It makes
use of the fact that only the apex of the cone (near the voice
coil) is in motion at higher fr
equencies, and automatically
adjusts the acoustic loading to maximize acoustic output.
The main horn bell is a one-piece black polyester and fibre-
glass with fibreglass rib reinforcement. An integral grille-pro-
tection screen built into the manifold chamber protects the
mid-bass for mechanical damage. To get low-frequency
extension one octave lower, the recommended subwoofer is
QRx 218 S.
