Frequency response

Angle
Distance

Frequency response: from the spec sheet, p. 2. Titled "FREQUENCY RESPONSE"; axis "dB re 1 V/Pa" from -15 to +10, but both curves sit near 0 dB at 1 kHz, so the scale is relative. Room, smoothing and drive level are not stated. Legend "Response at 10cm".

Dashed: outside the rated range, or simulated (other angles and distances). Hover or tap the graphs for values.

Polar pattern

Polar pattern: from the spec sheet, p. 2. Titled "POLAR PATTERN"; five frequencies; scale "dB rel. 1V/Pa" from +5.0 to -25.0, bold rings at -2, -10 and -20 dB. Measuring conditions not stated.
