1. 2 hours test made with continuous pink noise signal within the range Fs-10Fs. Power calculated on rated nominal impedance. Loudspeaker in free air.
2. Power on Continuous Program is defined as 3 dB greater than the Nominal rating.
3. Applied RMS Voltage is set to 2V for 4 ohms Nominal Impedance.
4. Thiele-Small parameters are measured after a high level 20 Hz sine wave preconditioning test.
