In Reply to: Correct but ... sine waves ARE more dangerous than music! posted by Richard BassNut Greene on August 27, 2003 at 08:13:51:
For instance my speakers are around 10 years old rated 175watts(95db sensitive)8ohms. The tweeter is a horn with ferro-fluid cooling.My Sugden is ~70watts per. I have cranked it to the 2 o'clock position and I get incredible and very clear volume levels(yes the neighbors complained and the windows and floor rattled) but I only did for a couple of minutes to see. It did not distort but I didn't want to get insane but I'm pretty sure I Could have pushed it further. I also don't think the Sugden has a frequency limiter as the review of it was babbling about that(to the non engineer like me it may as well be Star Trek techno-babble).
I was wondering about horns because it seems most clubs(well all the clubs I've seen) use horns to get the high volume levels...so, in general do they take more of a beating than a soft dome or ribbon...or is it just the voice coil and the rest doesn't matter.
