I use such PA-tweeters where level stability and \nefficiency are crucial – for example, in combination with powerful midrange drivers, \nwhere a normal dome tweeter would quickly reach its limits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Highlights\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTitanium diaphragm with neodymium drive:\u003c\/strong\u003e The lightweight, \ntorsion-resistant titanium dome combined with the more powerful \nneodymium magnet ensures higher sensitivity – the tweeter plays \nsignificantly louder at the same amplifier power than comparable \nferrite models.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRevised waveguide:\u003c\/strong\u003e The new horn improves \ndispersion outside the main axis, important for a more uniform \nsound image throughout the vehicle interior rather than just directly on axis.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e110 dB efficiency:\u003c\/strong\u003e A high SPL value means that \nthe tweeter plays loudly even with little power – practical when you want it \nto keep up with a powerful bass range in terms of level.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCast aluminum horn with protective grille:\u003c\/strong\u003e The \nintegrated mesh grille protects the sensitive titanium diaphragm from \nmechanical damage without compromising the aesthetics.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Data at a Glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRMS power:\u003c\/strong\u003e 60 W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePeak power:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100 W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImpedance:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4 Ohm (Single Voice Coil)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEfficiency:\u003c\/strong\u003e 110 dB SPL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency range:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.5 kHz – 20 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 59 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation depth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 38 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eApplication Area \u0026amp; Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe VO-B1c is suitable for systems where the high-frequency range must \nkeep up with high efficiency and level stability – typically in \nPA-oriented or SPL-focused setups, but also in demanding \nSQ systems with powerful midrange. For a clean separation, \nit is worth combining it with a DSP to ensure the crossover frequency matches \nthe rest of the system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat to Consider When Installing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eObserve crossover frequency:\u003c\/strong\u003e PA-tweeters like this \ntypically do not tolerate too low a crossover – stick to a \nhigh-pass above the specified frequency range to avoid overloading the titanium diaphragm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCheck installation depth:\u003c\/strong\u003e With a 38 mm installation depth, the \nVO-B1c fits in most, but not all A-pillars or doorboards – measure briefly before \ncuts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnect polarity correctly:\u003c\/strong\u003e Especially with high \nefficiency, incorrect polarity can quickly lead to audible phase cancellations \nin the crossover range to the midrange driver.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf you are looking for a tweeter that still delivers good levels even at low amplifier power \nand looks great, the VO-B1c is a good choice.
