HDN 60


HDN 60

The HDN 60 serves as a highly efficient, ultra-compact high-frequency compression driver. Engineered as a high-fidelity acoustic solution, it is perfectly suited for integrating into lightweight 2-way passive enclosures and highly portable active sound reinforcement systems. This driver excels in applications where impeccable voice intelligibility and high-frequency sparkle are required, making it an exceptional asset for corporate fixed venue installations, precise stage monitoring, and highly mobile touring rigs that demand flawless audio without the heavy footprint.

Delivering robust acoustic output despite its incredibly small size, the HDN 60 boasts a highly sensitive 109 dB (1W/1m) output capability. It is confidently rated for 60 watts of continuous AES power handling, while smoothly managing dynamic peaks up to 120 watts of program power. This translates to surprising dynamic headroom and substantial overall loudness that easily competes with much larger drivers. Live sound engineers will appreciate its ability to maintain high-definition clarity at high sound pressure levels, ensuring that delicate vocal nuances and cymbal crashes remain highly articulate and free from muddy compression artifacts.

The acoustic engine inside the HDN 60 centers around a highly responsive 1.75-inch (44.4mm) copper-clad aluminum voice coil coupled to an intense neodymium magnet structure. This streamlined motor assembly translates amplifier power into acoustic energy with lightning-fast transient precision. Exiting through a versatile 1.4-inch throat, the driver is optimized to mate with a wide variety of professional horns, dictating a precise dispersion pattern that ensures smooth, even, and phase-accurate coverage, aggressively preventing high-frequency drop-offs across the designated audience area.

Sonically, the HDN 60 delivers a beautifully balanced frequency response spanning from 1 kHz to 20 kHz, making it highly adept at handling critical crossover networks. The acoustic purity of this transducer is achieved through the use of a premium PEEK diaphragm. This material choice imparts a highly desirable sonic character, yielding warm yet transparent upper mids and remarkably smooth, crystal-clear highs that actively resist the ear-fatiguing harshness often found in lesser drivers. Its natural frequency curve allows for highly efficient crossover integration, preserving the utmost fidelity of the source audio.

The physical construction of the HDN 60 prioritizes real-world value, uncompromising build quality, and unmatched road-worthiness. Weighing a mere 1.7 kg, with a slim overall depth of 48mm and a 120mm diameter, it significantly minimizes cabinet weight, which is a massive advantage for touring crews and overhead rigging operations. The driver mounts rock-solid to any compatible horn via a 4 x M6 bolt-circle array, and is offered in adaptable 8 or 16-ohm nominal impedances for immediate compatibility with modern amplifiers. Built to withstand the harsh vibrations and abuses of live sound environments, the HDN 60 is a reliable, high-performance transducer that technicians can trust entirely.
