Completing what its manufacturer claims to be the most accurate point-source system currently available, B&C Speakers has announced the FB464 passive crossover.
Designed to partner with the DCX464 coaxial compression driver, the FB464 is expressly designed for use in conjunction with the ME464 300Hz horn released in late 2020 – users of all types can now have flat high-fidelity response out of the box using OEM components.
The FB464 crossover phase aligns the mid and high frequency elements of the DCX464, and implements an asymmetrical slope crossover at 3.6kHz without reducing efficiency – this crossover frequency best balances energy between the two diaphragms for minimum distortion at all output levels. Series protection is additionally provided by industrial filament bulbs, which prevent over power or inconsistent tonal balance at very high output..
The FB464 is available in both 8Ω and 16Ω versions to match the impedance of the B&C DCX464 driver. Full specifications, drawings and measurements can be found on the company’s website dedicated crossovers section.
