B&C Speakers ME 60

A B&C Horn Designed for Controlled Dispersion

The B&C ME60 follows the line of sound reinforcement horns designed to fully exploit the potential of 2-inch throat compression drivers. Its size and geometry aim for a clear objective: to provide efficient and coherent projection while maintaining precise control over dispersion. It is particularly suitable for designing front-of-house speakers, powerful monitors, or systems requiring clean and predictable coverage.

Who Is It For and What Are Its Uses?

This horn is intended for integrators, rental companies, speaker manufacturers, and demanding DIY enthusiasts seeking directional dispersion and solid intelligibility in the mid/high frequencies. The 60deg horizontal and 40deg vertical coverage is well suited for venues where the audience needs to be "targeted" (clubs, small and medium stages, places of worship, multipurpose rooms), as well as multi-speaker configurations where overlap management is essential.

Constant Directivity: Control, Uniformity, and Efficiency

The ME60 adopts a constant directivity design, a major advantage for maintaining a more consistent response within the covered area. Practically, energy is better distributed within the specified angle, helping to achieve a more stable balance between the center and edges of the listening zone. The result: a more uniform listening experience and better control of sound directed towards walls and ceilings.

60deg x 40deg Dispersion for Precision

With its 60deg (H) x 40deg (V) coverage, this horn is designed for situations where precision is prioritized over very wide dispersion. This approach enhances presence, impact, and reach while limiting acoustic "pollution" outside the useful zone. It is also an interesting format when ceiling height is limited or when vertical reflections need to be reduced.

Cut-Off Frequency at 0.8kHz: Better Controlled Transition

The cut-off frequency at 0.8kHz indicates the range from which the horn begins to operate optimally. This provides a solid foundation for designing a system where the crossover between transducers is smoother, with better mid/high frequency reproduction depending on the compression driver and filtering chosen.

Aluminum: Rigidity and Reliability in Sound Reinforcement

Manufactured from aluminum, it offers a rigid and durable structure appreciated in touring environments, fixed installations, or heavy-duty use. This robustness also contributes to the mechanical stability of the assembly with a compression driver and ensures consistent performance over time.
