Input connection to the system is
made via screw terminal strip (one pair) for
full-range inputs.
The internal passive crossover
features Sound Guard™ II tweeter protection
circuit, an advanced topology crossover with
high performance components, to provide
high power handling and reliability. Peavey’s
proprietary high-frequency driver protection
circuitry, Sound Guard, provides long and
medium-term driver overload protection
without impairing musical transients or
dynamics. The crossover provides driver
roll-off and protection, as well as driver EQ
for the woofer and horn; the sum total is a
crystal clear and very smooth response.
High-quality, reliable crossover components
include polypropylene capacitors, and high
current inductors and input connectors. The
optimal integration of the crossover with the
selected drivers results in a smooth

frequency response from 74 Hz to 18 kHz.
Despite its compact dimensions, this
enclosure can put out some very serious
sound levels, and take 500 Watts program
of clean amplifier power, resulting in an
outstanding amount of clean coverage with
amazing clarity.
Frequency response
This measurement is useful in
determining how accurately a given unit
reproduces an input signal. The frequency
response of the Quadra 10 is measured at a
distance of 1-meter using a 1 Watt (into the
nominal impedance) swept-sine input signal.
As shown in figure 1, the selected drivers in
the Quadra 10 combine to give a smooth
frequency response from 74 Hz to 18 kHz.
Directivity
Beamwidth is derived from the -6 dB
points from the polar plots (see figure 3)
which are measured in a whole space
anechoic environment. Q and Directivity
Index is plotted for the on-axis
measurement position. These are
specifications that provide a reference to the
coverage characteristics of the unit. These
parameters provide insight for proper
placement and installation in the chosen
environment. The blending of the
components of the Quadra 10 exhibit a
desirable beamwidth and directivity (figure 3
and 4) suitable for sound reinforcement
applications.

Power Handling
There are many different approaches
to power handling ratings. Peavey rates this
loudspeaker system’s power handling using
a full-range form of the AES Standard 2-
1984. Using audio band 20 Hz to 20 kHz
pink noise with peaks of four times the RMS
level, this strenuous test signal assures the
user that every portion of this system can
withstand today’s high technology music.

high by 14.00 inches wide by 13.19 inches
deep. The weight shall be 31 pounds.
The loudspeaker system shall be an
Architectural Acoustics model Quadra 10.
Architectural and Engineering
Specifications
The loudspeaker system shall have an
operating bandwidth of 74 Hz to 18 kHz.
The nominal output level shall be 96.0 dB
when measured at a distance of one
meter with an input of one Watt. The
nominal impedance shall be 8.0 Ohms.
The maximum continuous power handling
shall be 250 Watts, maximum program
power of 500 Watts and a peak power
input of at least 1,000 Watts, with a
minimum amplifier headroom of 3 dB.
The nominal radiation geometry shall be
90 degrees in the horizontal plane and
40 degrees in the vertical plane. The
outside dimensions shall be 18.75 inches
Harmonic Distortion
Second and third harmonic distortions
vs. frequency are plotted in figures 5 and
6 for two power levels, ten percent (10%)
of rated input power and either one
percent (1%) of rated input power or one
Watt, whichever is greater. Distortion is
read from the graph as the difference
between the fundamental signal
(frequency response) and the desired
harmonic. As an example, a distortion
curve that is down 40 dB from the
fundamental is equivalent to 1% distortion.
