d&b 16C Loudspeaker

The 16C is a passive 2-way column loudspeaker housing four 4” neodymium drivers and 0.75” compression driver mounted on a CD horn. In the vertical plane, the cabinet provides directivity control down to 500 Hz.

The HF horn has a nominal dispersion of 90° x 40° (h x v). The 4" drivers are arranged in a unique cardioid setup radiating through waveguide elements at the front and damped ports at the rear of the cabinet.

This design provides a cardioid dispersion pattern with an average broadband attenuation to the rear of approx. 18 dB. The loudspeaker cabinet is based on an extruded aluminum profile with a metal grill protecting the front of the loudspeaker.
