Description

The SSE 10M is a new low-profile monitor enclosure featuring high power ratings with custom components, a sleek look and a unique, snap-in metal grille. The SSE 10M is a full-range, two-way system featuring the highly acclaimed Peavey 14T titanium compression driver with the diverse Sound Guard IV tweeter protection network and a maximum-performance 10" woofer for a smooth response. The SSE 10M is rated at 400 Watts program and 800 Watts peak. This lightweight speaker system may be placed on stage at angles of either 30° or 45° and is ideal for smaller venues where stage space is at a premium. Connections are made using a four-pin Twist-Lock or a paralleled two-position terminal block for additional cabinets. The SSE 10M is available in black or white.

Frequency response

This measurement is useful in determining how accurately a given unit reproduces an input signal. The frequency response of the SSE 10M is measured at a distance of 1 meter using a 1 Watt swept-sine input signal (into the nominal impedance). As shown in figure 1, the selected drivers in the SSE 10M combine to give a smooth frequency response from 80 Hz to 17 kHz.

Power handling

There are many different approaches to power handling ratings. Peavey rates this loudspeaker system's power handling using a full-range form of the AES Standard 2-

1. Using audio band 20 Hz to 20 kHz pink noise with peaks of four times the RMS level, this strenuous test signal assures the user that every portion of this system can withstand today's high technology music.

This rating is contingent upon having a minimum of 3 dB available amplifier headroom.

Harmonic distortion

Second and third harmonic distortions vs. frequency are plotted infigu res 3 & 4 for two power levels: ten percent (10%) of rated input power and either one percent (1%) of rated input power or 1 Watt, whichever is greater. Distortion is read from the graph as the difference between the fundamental signal (frequency response) and the desired harmonic. As an example, a distortion curve that is down 40 dB from the fundamental is equivalent to 1% distortion.

Architectural & engineering specifications

The loudspeaker system shall have an operating bandwidth of 80 Hz to 17kHz. The nominal output level shall be 95 dB when measured at a distance of one meter with an input of one Watt. The nominal impedance shall be 8 ohms. The maximum program power handling shall be 400 Watts, with a peak power input of at least 800 Watts and a minimum amplifier headroom of 3 dB. The nominal radiation geometry shall be 90° in the horizontal plane and 60° in the vertical plane. The outside dimensions shall be 14.56" high by 19.63" wide by 15.95" deep. The weight shall be 29 lbs. The loudspeaker system shall be a model SSE 10M.
