Electro-Voice 3-Inch High Frequency Neodymium Transducer... User manual

Technical Specifications:
The Electro-Voice ND6x is a world-class high-frequency
compression driver capable of extremely high acoustic output
over a wide frequency range.
Precise engineering, along with careful selection of materials
and advanced driver architecture, has resulted in a driver
that is ideally suited for the most demanding presentation of
high quality music and communications program.
Incorporating Electro-Voice’s exclusive Ring Mode
Decoupling (RMD) through all design phases has produced
drivers with unmatched accuracy while minimizing acoustic
resonances and time domain ringing throughout the driver
structure.
The small size and weight-to-power ratio of the ND6x assures
easy installations where weight may be a concern. The 2.15
Tesla flux density provided by the Neodymium magnet
exceeds that of conventional drivers at a fraction of the size.
A unique, geometrically optimized 3" titanium diaphragm,
consisting of a one-piece dome and suspension system gives
these drivers an ideal combination of superb high-frequency
response and resistance to fatigue.
Integrated into the ND6x’s design is a finned aluminum
heatsink to increase power handling and reliability.
The ND6x is recommended for all large horn installations
where lower crossover points are required, such as cinema
applications
