Cable Champions League

January 9th, 2012 Posted in PSSO Tags: ,

PSSO-CableIf there was a league for speaker cables, our new representatives would definitely be part of it. With Neutrik as team mate and German manufacturing skills, the enormous high quality of our cable team shines through.

The 2 pole speakon cables from PSSO have been developed to serve the demanding and professional engineer. It was our goal, to produce a highly reliable cable which is rugged enough for the road and which overcomes a vast number of plugging procedures uncomplainingly – everything without being too expensive. In collaboration with Neutrik we have achieved this goal.

Neutrik supplies the very stable Speakon NL2FC cable plugs, the cables are made in Germany. Up to now we offer three cables with different lengths, 5 m, 10 m and 15 m.
With our PSSO Speakon cables we have accommodated a new product family which is perfectly suited for our PSSO audio products. And one thing is sure, it won’t be the last family to join our cable assortment.


  • PSSO-CableConnector A: Neutrik Speakon NL2FC plug
  • Connector B: Neutrik Speakon NL2FC plug
  • Cable cross-section: 2.5 mm²
  • Cable length: 5 m, 10 m, 15 m
  • Cable diameter: 7 mm
  • Weight: 0.5 kg
  • Cable construction 140 x 0.15

Overview on subwoofer types

subwoofer

The human ear is mainly adapted to the frequency range where speech is transmitted. Frequencies below this frequency range are less noted although the same physical level is present. In practice, this effect requires higher bass power e. g. by more powerful subwoofers, more subs or a mixture of both. As speakers generally have a low efficiency comparable to a halogen lamp, manufacturers try to achieve the highest efficiency by optimized housing shapes. But not every housing shape is suitable for every event location and audience. The following article should help to find the suitable subwoofer type.

1. Introduction

The loudspeaker celebrates its 150th anniversary based on the invention of the telephone by Philipp Reis in the year 1861. Already in the year 1878, the electro-dynamic loudspeaker was patented. This kind of loudspeaker is still built into most speaker-systems today.

If such a loudspeaker is operated without housing, an acoustic short-circuit is produced because the sound waves produced by both membrane sides are eliminated by each other. The volume is clearly reduced, especially the lower frequencies. A pragmatic use is not possible like this so that diverse types of loudspeaker housings for different applications were developed.

PSSO Compact Line Array – the simulation software

July 28th, 2011 Posted in PSSO, Videos, worth knowing Tags: , , , , ,

PSSO

In order to facilitate the use of the Compact Line Array, PSSO presents a simulation software for the users. This software is based on the Engine of RAY-END (former GPA). We would like to introduce this software to you with a little introduction and five short tutorial videos.

If you have not dealt with Line Arrays in general, we recommend to read the article „The line array in theory and practice“ explaining the basics of line array technology and the PSSO Compact Line Array.

The simulation software is very intuitive and only presents those functions really needed in sound engineering. Read more »
