NX250 - Speaker - 250w, 12 inch / 1 inch

The NX250 is the direct replacement to the successful NX12 loudspeaker, and like its predecessor, it has a 12-
inch ceramic magnet woofer, 1-inch Mylar high frequency driver and handles 250 watts. The NX250 now has an
80º x 50º waveguide horn molded into the loudspeaker baffle, and has a slightly larger cabinet volume for
increased low frequency response. The new horn, patterned after the popular horn used in the élite loudspeakers
provides better dispersion in both front of house and wedge monitor applications.

The NX250 also features our ingenious PTC™ (Positive Temperature Coefficient) protection on the high frequency
compression driver. PTC™ is an ingenious current sensing / self resetting breaker that offers some serious
advantages over current protection schemes used in many loudspeaker cabinets. This protection scheme, while
always present in the signal path, remains inaudible until it becomes necessary for it to react. It kicks in at a point
where it effectively reduces output to the horn and protects that diaphragm from damage due to excessive power
input or signal distortion. Unlike a breaker it does not require a physical reset to allow signal back to the horn
driver, and unlike a bulb or fuse, does not need to be replaced if the circuit is tripped, and the fuse is blown.
Where PTC™ shines is in heavy feedback environments where most horn diaphragm damage occurs. In rare
situations even where a microphone might be dropped in a monitor, the sustained ‘squeal’ can destroy
diaphragms in seconds. PTC™ will significantly reduce output level to the horn to protect the diaphragm. When
the situation has been rectified, and the feedback eliminated the horn will return to full operating level within half
a second.

arrays, or for use as a monitor. An improved wedge monitor angle has been incorporated into the new design.
