Engine and Compression

B&C Speakers WGDE550 8 Ohm Driver + ME102, 70 W AES compression driver with 140° horn, 108 dB, ideal for professional line-array.

ARTICLE N° 111778
The DE550 compression driver in the WGDE550 is distinguished by its 51 mm aluminium voice coil and HT polymer diaphragm, both of which guarantee clear, dynamic reproduction. With AES power of 70 W and a sensitivity of 108 dB, it delivers formidable efficiency, even in demanding configurations. Its optimised 2 T magnetic field helps to limit distortion, while offering consistent precision throughout the frequency range.

Covering a bandwidth of 1 kHz to 17 kHz, this motor is perfectly suited to line-array systems requiring faithful reproduction of midrange and treble. Its design allows it to operate with a recommended cut-off from 1.2 kHz, making it particularly versatile for a wide variety of professional applications. Sound engineers will appreciate this flexibility, which makes it easy to adapt the system to the broadcast environment.

The addition of the ME102 horn optimises horizontal dispersion with a uniform coverage of 140°. This is crucial in line-array installations, as it ensures that every listener, regardless of position, enjoys the same level of clarity. The ME102's cast aluminium construction ensures robustness and longevity, while maintaining a compact structure that is easy to integrate into modular systems.

The DE550's lightweight yet robust design, weighing in at just 1.17 kg, makes logistics much easier for service providers. Less load without sacrificing acoustic power is a major advantage for tours and installations where every kilogram counts. Combined with the ME102, the package offers an efficient, durable solution for sound reinforcement professionals.

The WGDE550 8 Ohm Driver + ME102 is ideal for contractors looking for a reliable and accurate driver for their line-array systems. Its combination of high efficiency, homogeneous coverage and robust design makes it a safe choice for ensuring clear, powerful sound at any type of event.
