416-8B LOW FREQUENCY
LOUDSPEAKER
DESCRIPTION
The ALTEC 416-8B is a 16" low-frequency loud
speaker of professional quality that is ideal for
use in wide-range sound reinforcement and
high-fidelity systems. Performance is charac
terized by smooth response with extraordinary
linearity.
A structurally reinforced frame, rigid enough to
permit front or rear mounting, supports a heavy
permanent magnet providing high flux density.
The low-mass voice coil is made from edge-
wound copper ribbon to provide more turns of
wire in the voice-coil gap. The cone suspension
has exceptionally high compliance for accurate
reproduction of low frequencies.
The 416-8B loudspeaker complements a wide
selection of ALTEC-designed enclosures.
