APPLICATION:

 

BASS MIDRANGE LOUDSPEAKER 310mm (12")
Upper Bass-Midrange in PA and Satellite Systems

FEATURES: The RV3153 is a unique loudspeaker. It features two cooling systems. In addition to the conventional rear vented magnet it uses the patented, front mounted, Radial chassis which acts as a giant heatsink. This keeps voice coil and magnet temperatures exceptionally low resulting in superb reliability, almost 3dB less power compression and tight, clean bass even after prolonged operation at maximum power. The RV3153 has a symmetrical field magnet for absolute linearity and transient control on high power peak inputs. It's smooth, extended midband response rolls off at 24dB/octave enabling simple crossover design. This unit is balanced for use in efficient, compact satellite systems where midrange clarity and projection are critical. It is an ideal complement to subwoofers using the R3823 or RV4504.
