DIGITAL SIGNAL PROCESSING
The DSP inside a Typhon-AX8 and Typhon-AX8-BT is extremely powerful. Here we describe the 4 modes and their possible real-life applications.
FLAT: The Flat mode is ‘the truth’. This mode is ideal for when connecting guitar effects processors directly to a Typhon-AX8. Full Range, Flat Response. Simply YOUR sound.
MONITOR: This mode rolls of low frequencies which are not needed when Typhon-AX8 is on the floor. High frequencies are also attenuated to reduce risk of feedback.
BASS: By pushing the bass frequencies, this mode is ideal when Typhon-AX8 is being used at lower volumes. It delivers a more powerful sound without having to turn the volume up.
PUNCH: A ‘crisp’ and ‘tight’ DSP mode which gives the impression of power and tightness. Use this when you really need to cut through.
BEHIND THE GRILL
Custom Wharfedale Pro transducers have been selected for Typhon.
The custom compression driver features a large 1.75” voice coil. This is coupled to a 100° x 80° waveguide for smooth HF dispersion.
The custom Wharfedale Pro LF transducers have a newly designed ferrite core, use flat coil windings to aid cooling, and feature a moisture rejecting cone material which allows Typhon to be used in damp or humid conditions.
In fact…..all Typhon loudspeakers are IP54 Certified !
LETS LOOK INSIDE
Just like all other Wharfedale Pro plastic active loudspeakers, Typhon uses the largest HF voice coils in their class. All models use a 1.75″ coil HF compression driver.
These custom made Wharfedale Pro compression driver delivers crisp and precise high frequencies, even at extreme volumes.
The internal amplifiers of Typhon have been tuned specifically for the HF and LF drivers that we have chosen. This makes for perfect power and frequency transfer, resulting in the sonic experience that you’d expect from a Wharfedale Pro active loudspeaker.
HARDWARE
A completely new polypropylene cabinet design with a full frontal steel grille houses the most advanced active loudspeakers ever created by Wharfedale Pro.
This injection moulded cabinet is carefully engineered to feature 5 carry handles making transportation easy and well balanced.
For on stage or for fixed installation, the carefully designed hardware of Typhon makes setup and positioning easy and effective.
Need to wall mount or fly? With 9 x M8 rigging points and a 35 mm pole socket compatible with the WPB-2 bracket, Typhon fits almost anywhere.
