A compact 1-inch horn designed for sound reinforcement speakers
In a sound reinforcement speaker, the horn plays a central role: it guides the energy from the compression driver and shapes the dispersion to achieve a more uniform sound in the listening area. The H1SC-8050 follows this logic with a square geometry and contained depth, designed for compact formats where every millimeter counts. It is a relevant solution both for repairing an existing system and for assembling a custom project, maintaining a simple and proven approach around a 1-inch throat.
Its specified 80 x 50 degrees directivity aims for an effective balance between coverage and control: wide enough to cover a close audience, while remaining directive enough to limit unwanted diffusion on walls, which often causes a loss of intelligibility in reverberant rooms.
Who is it for and what are its uses?
The H1SC-8050 horn is intended for sound technicians, integrators, manufacturers, maintenance workshops, and DIY enthusiasts seeking a reliable waveguide for a 1-inch compression driver. It is particularly suitable for small to medium-sized front-of-house speakers, stage monitors, and fixed installations (bars, multipurpose rooms, places of worship, event spaces) where controlling the mid-high frequencies is desired to preserve vocal clarity and instrument attack.
Thanks to its square shape and low profile, it easily fits into existing enclosures, rental speakers, or custom designs where front baffle optimization and sound coverage control are priorities.

Questions frequently asked
Is the Celestion H1SC-8050 compatible with a 1-inch compression driver?
The 1-inch (25.4 mm) throat is designed for 1-inch compression drivers equipped with mounting screws. Compatibility therefore requires verifying the presence of this mounting system on the driver.
What directivity does this 1-inch horn offer?
The specified directivity is 80 x 50 degrees. This coverage targets the listening area while limiting sound dispersion towards the side walls and ceiling.
From what frequency should this horn be used?
The indicated frequency response is above 1.5 kHz. The system’s crossover must be adapted to this usage range to ensure a coherent mid-high frequency transition.
What are the dimensions of the Celestion H1SC-8050 horn?
Its size is 178 x 178 mm, with a depth of 88 mm. Weighing 0.20 kg, its reinforced ABS frame facilitates integration into a compact enclosure.
Is this horn suitable for stage monitors or fixed installations?
Its square geometry and 88 mm depth allow integration into compact front-loaded enclosures, stage monitors, or fixed installations. The 80 x 50 degree dispersion helps maintain clarity of vocals and instruments within the covered area.
