Description

The TL 16 H is built around an extremely light aluminium titanium alloy diaphragm and a strong strontium-ferrite magnet with a 16 mm voice coil, which together give a linear response, clean transients and very high efficiency. This 8 Ω version is rated at 150 W with a 12 dB/oct. high-pass from 7500 Hz, reaches 100 dB (1 W/1 m) and covers 2200–35000 Hz.

Typical applications

  • High-end hi-fi systems
  • High-efficiency multi-way systems

Installation and cabinet guidance

No baffle cut-out or fixing pattern is published for this horn. The unit is 132 mm long overall (126 mm body), with an 84 mm mouth and a 59.5 mm body diameter, so plan the mounting from those dimensions and from the unit itself, and keep the mouth unobstructed. Leave access to the spring terminals once the horn is in place.

Fix the horn securely so that it cannot move or rattle, and keep the mouth clear of obstructions. Connect to the spring terminals and observe polarity, leaving enough slack in the cable that the joints are not strained. The power ratings apply only with a 12 dB/oct. high-pass filter from 7500 Hz, so feed it through the system crossover or a high-pass filter that gives at least that protection; never connect it directly to a full-range signal. Its sensitivity is well above that of a typical cone driver, so expect to attenuate it to match the rest of the system. Use an amplifier suitable for the 8 Ω load.
