Features
For high output speaker systems, PRV Audio’s 6MB500FT mid bass is an excellent option capable of amazing performance. A great new addition to the Tukuteo® Series, where more power handling and less distortion on mid low mid bass frequencies is the key.
All this attention to detail makes the 6MB500FT one impressive driver. With 94 dB efficiency and 250 watts power handling this mid bass is ideally used in stage monitor, auditorium, touring and outdoor systems. The smooth response from 110 to 6,500 Hz is perfect for 2 or 3-way designs.
Highlights
- Nominal Impedance: 8 Ohms
- Rated AES Power Handling (RMS): 250 Watts
- Program Power: 500 Watts
- Sensitivity (1W/1m): 94 dB
- Voice Coil Diameter: 2″
PRV Audio’s Tukuteo® Series is engineered to deliver the signature ‘tuku’ sound, known in the Caribbean islands as tukuteo. A rigid cast aluminum frame with narrow spokes to minimize reflections back into the cone. In addition, the frame includes force cooling system openings which allows airflow to cool the voice coil. To drive the voice coil, a large ferrite magnet is used with a very precise machined top and bottom plate. The additional dual forced vent in the back plate for the coil allows this driver to handle up to 250 watts RMS without issue.
Featuring a paper cone has a special high strength paper pulp composition designed to achieve the best possible linearity within the middle frequency range and a special cone treatment specifically dedicated to improve the dampening properties of the moving assembly, thus considerably improving the smooth frequency response.
