Product Overview
The Orbit Pendant Speaker (OPS1) is the ideal choice for high ceiling and open space environments. The OPS1 features NEAR's MLS™ and MDT™ technologies (see below), which improve sound quality and increase operating reliability.
The low-distortion speaker design, featuring NEAR's spiderless driver and one-piece metal-alloy cone structure, delivers superb articulation and the highest intelligibility for both music and speech.
Features:
- Wide dispersion coaxial driver for broad, evencoverage
- Stable, high definition metal-alloycone
- MDT™ cone design delivers detailedsound
- MLS™ eliminates conventional centering "spider" for moreaccurate voice coil centering
- High-efficiency drivers deliver superiorperformance
- Extremely good off-axis response
- Computer-matched venting system for full bassoutput
- High power handling capability for foregroundsound
- Selectable power taps via front-mountedcontrol
- 16-ohm input fornon-transformer multi-speaker systems
- Easy wiring with snap-on connector
- Connector provides loop-through to nextspeaker
- Easy to use cable suspension system that includes threesuspension cables with attached forged eyebolts
- Threaded brass insert point for optional safety cable eyebolt
- Low-resonance cabinet structure
- White textured finish easily painted to match themedecors
- Attractive, contemporary, sturdy steel grille assembly with fineperforations
- Unique MDT™ (Metal Diaphragm Technology):
- Solid,one-piece cone structure eliminates the traditional dustcap
- Extremely stablecone structure over extended periods
- Fast transmission ofsound through the diaphragm means low energy storage
- Special hardanodizing process creates a ceramic surface for increasedstiffness
- Super-efficientthermal path for cooling the voice coil (not paper orplastic)
- High rigidity andlow mass versus typical paper or plastic cones
- MLS™ (Magnetic Liquid Suspension):
- Magneticliquid (Ferrofluid) injected into magnet gap
- Constant lubricationof the gap prevents oxidation from occurring
- Voice coil is mostefficiently cooled by fluid path rather than air
- Lower distortion viastronger centering forces on voice coil
- Increased reliability, particularly in high power daily use systems
