Design Recommendations

When creating a design that uses FreeSpace

DS 16F loudspeakers, you should consider the following:

• The FreeSpace DS 16F loudspeaker is ideally suited to background music and paging applications.

If your customer’s requirement is for a foreground music system, consider the FreeSpace DS 100F

loudspeaker.

• Recommended mounting height for the FreeSpace DS 16F loudspeaker is between 8 and 20ft (2.4 and 6.1m).

• Maximum SPL for a typical application is between 87 and 99 dB-SPL.

• Always add 25% headroom to your amplifier to accommodate various types of program material.

Coverage requirements vary for each application, and the loudspeaker spacing will vary based on

mounting height and listener height. Use the following two steps to calculate the required loud-

speaker spacing distance for your application.

Total system sound pressure level varies based on the mounting height, loudspeaker tap and room

acoustics. For typical applications, use the chart below to determine the total sound pressure level

that will be achieved using the DS 16F loudspeakers.

For more detailed information, refer to the FreeSpace DS 16F loudspeaker Design Guide.

Calculate the loudspeaker spacing distance by

multiplying the loudspeaker throw distance by

the desired coverage multiplier.

Calculate the loudspeaker

throw distance.
