Acheron Studio Loudspeaker

The loudspeaker shall be a self-powered, full-range system; the transducers shall consist of a 15-inch diameter cone driver and a 4-inch diaphragm compression driver on an 80-degree horizontal by 50-degree vertical horn. The loudspeaker system shall incorporate internal processing electronics and a two channel amplifier, one channel for each driver. Processing functions shall include frequency and phase correction, signal division, and protection for the low- and high-frequency sections. The crossover point shall be 580 Hz.

Each amplifier channel shall be class AB/bridged with complementary MOSFET output stages. Burst capability for the low-frequency channel shall be 550 watts total with a nominal 2-ohm resistive load and 250 watts for the high-frequency channel with a nominal 8-ohm resistive load. Total burst power shall be 700 watts (1400 watts peak). Distortion (THD, IM, TIM) shall not exceed 0.02%. Performance specifications for a typical Notes: production unit shall be as follows, measured at 1/3-octave resolution: operating frequency range shall be 37 Hz to 18 kHz; phase response shall be ±30° from 700 Hz to 17 kHz.

The audio input shall be electronically balanced with a 10 kOhm impedance and accept a nominal 10 dBV (3.2 V rms, 4.5 V peak) signal. Connector shall be XLR (A-3) type female with parallel looping male. RF filtering shall be provided, and CMRR shall be greater than 80 dB from 50 Hz to 500 Hz.

The internal power supply shall perform automatic voltage selection, EMI filtering, soft current turn-on, and surge suppression. Power requirements shall be nominal 100, 110, or 230 V AC line current at 50 or 60 Hz. UL and CE operating voltage range shall be 100 to 240 V AC. Maximum peak current draw during burst shall be 2.9 A at 115 V AC, 1.5 A at 230 V AC and 3.3 A at 100 V AC. Current inrush during soft turn-on shall not exceed 11 A at 115 V AC, 18 A at 230 V AC, and 13 A at 100 V AC. AC power connector shall be PowerCon.

The loudspeaker system shall provide facilities for installing Meyer Sound’s optional RMS remote monitoring system.

All loudspeaker components shall be mounted in an acoustically vented enclosure constructed of premium birch plywood with a low-gloss, black-textured finish. Dimensions shall be 25.38" wide x 30.78" high x 16.79" deep (787 mm x 919 mm x 521 mm). Weight shall be 113 lbs (51.26 kg). An optional version of the loudspeaker shall include side rigging attachment points and the MYA-AST mounting yoke.

The loudspeaker shall be the Meyer Sound Acheron Studio.
