B&C Speakers - DCM420 16 Ohm Driver

The DCM420 16 Ohm from B&C Speakers is a new-generation compression driver designed for the midrange register. Its large 100 mm voice coil, combined with a HT polymer diaphragm, guarantees remarkable stability, even when the acoustic pressure rises very high. Covering a range from 300 Hz to 6 kHz, it handles a critical area of the sound spectrum with a finesse rarely achieved in this format.

With 220 W of continuous power and 112 dB of sensitivity, the DCM420 is designed for professional broadcast systems that demand high output without distortion. This combination ensures energetic, controlled reproduction, perfectly suited to both modern line arrays and high-power loudspeakers. The dynamic reserve available means it can cope with the most intense conditions without compromising quality.

The use of neodymium magnets in the motor reduces weight while increasing magnetic flux density to 1.9T. This technological choice improves diaphragm control, limits losses and makes the whole unit more compact. For loudspeaker suppliers and manufacturers, this means lighter weight and simpler installation, without sacrificing power.

The motor also stands out for the precision of its design. Every element, from the dome to the suspension geometry, has been optimised to limit mechanical deformation and significantly reduce harmonic distortion. The result is a more natural, more defined midrange, which remains intelligible even at high volumes.

Thanks to its 2-inch output neck and standardised format, the DCM420 can be easily adapted to many of the horns available on the market. This flexibility makes it an ideal solution for designers of high-end systems looking to combine robustness, efficiency and musicality.
