DVA T4
High Efficiency
The	6.5“	Neodymium-Midrange	speaker	has	a	sealed	basket	to	provide	an	optimized	
volume	capacity	including	high	sensitivity	and	superb	sound	reproduction.	It	also	
has	a	horn	exit	including	phase	plug	for	defined	and	linear	sound	emission.

Reliability
The	8“	Neodymium-Woofer	is	equipped	with	a	high	power	2.5“	voice	coil	to	
provide	superior	sound	pressure	level	in	a	very	compact	size.

Constant Directivity
The	DVA	T4	Top	is	equipped	with	a	constant	directivity	horn	for	the	High	and	Mid	
section	 and	 offers	 a	 nominal	 coverage	 angle	 of	 100°x15°.	 The	 CD-Horn	 provides	
high	flexibility	and	a	good	natured	attitude	if	for	instance	the	Array	is	not	aligned	
correctly.
The	DVA	uses	apart	from	the	formation	of	cylindrical	waves	(very	much	depending	
on	 the	 number	 of	 T4	 elements)	 the	 vector	 summing	 of	 the	 individual	 horns.	 This	
means	 that	 with	 growing	 distance	 to	 the	 source	 (if	 set	 up	 correctly)	 the	 listener	
perceives	more	and	more	vector	sums	of	the	single	elements.
However	 it	 has	 to	 be	 considered,	 that	 the	 fewer	 elements	 are	 used	 to	 spread	 the	
sound	to	a	specific	area,	the	stronger	must	be	the	curving	of	them.	That’s	how	the	
effect	of	optimised	SPL	distribution	is	managed.
State-of-the-Art Drivers
The	 build	 in	 1”Neodymium-	 Drivers	 are	 equipped	 with	 a	 1.4”	 Mylar-	 Membrane	
which	 allow	 a	 very	 quick	 response	 and	 provide	 a	 linear	 frequency	 range	 at	 a	
surprisingly	 low	 weight.	 This	 driver	 was	 specially	 designed	 for	 the	 use	 with	 Line-
Arrays.	Its	compact	measurements	allow	very	close	proximity	which	is	a	main	factor	
for	minimum	interference.
