At a glance

  • Acoustically flat frequency response
  • Sound power level 120.5 dB
  • Wireless remote control
  • Continuous operation > 1 hour

 

The DS3 Dodecahedron Loudspeaker is equipped with twelve specially-designed dynamic drivers that ensure uniform distribution of the acoustic test signal. The PA3 Power Amplifier delivers equalised pink noise to the DS3, allowing the combination to produce acoustically-flat pink noise under free-field conditions.

The DS3 Dodecahedron Speaker is designed to be lightweight while delivering maximum performance and long-term stability. Weighing just 7.5 kg and offering a typical sound power level of 120.5 dB, the DS3 is ideal for on-site use. Its high-performance dynamic driver frames are crafted from solid aluminium, ensuring efficient heat dissipation and sustained level stability over extended periods. The sturdy protective grilles safeguard the membranes from damage during transport and in challenging working conditions. As a reference sound source, the DS3 ensures precise measurement results.
