Dedicated Midrange Design
The B&C 6PEV13 has been developed specifically for dedicated midrange reproduction where efficiency, vocal articulation, and controlled dispersion are priorities. Its extended operating bandwidth allows integration into a wide range of professional multi-way loudspeaker designs while maintaining smooth response characteristics.
With a usable frequency response extending from 120 Hz to 7000 Hz, the driver provides flexibility when integrating with both low-frequency and high-frequency transducers. This broader response range supports more versatile crossover implementation while maintaining clear mid-frequency reproduction.
The ferrite motor assembly has been optimized to provide stable magnetic performance and efficient energy transfer. Combined with the lightweight moving system, the motor structure contributes to controlled transient response and improved articulation across the critical vocal frequency range.
Voice Coil Construction and Thermal Stability
At the center of the B&C 6PEV13 is a 37 mm copper voice coil wound on a glass fibre former. The use of copper windings provides improved thermal handling while maintaining efficient power transfer and stable operating performance.
The driver supports 100 W nominal power handling and 200 W continuous program power, providing sufficient output capability for professional midrange applications while maintaining long-term reliability under continuous operation.
The combination of optimized voice coil geometry and lightweight moving components contributes to controlled thermal behavior while helping maintain consistent output characteristics during extended use.
Cone Geometry and Suspension Design
The B&C 6PEV13 utilizes an exponential cone profile combined with a triple roll surround design, providing controlled movement characteristics optimized for dedicated midrange reproduction.
A single spider suspension system maintains mechanical stability and predictable cone behavior while preserving efficiency throughout the intended operating bandwidth. The suspension design has been optimized for lower excursion applications where transient response and vocal accuracy remain priorities.
The untreated cone assembly contributes to reduced moving mass, helping improve transient performance and maintaining fast response characteristics throughout the midrange operating region.
Professional System Integration
The compact dimensions and extended frequency range of the B&C 6PEV13 make it suitable for a broad range of professional loudspeaker designs.
Its relatively low moving mass and high sensitivity characteristics allow system designers to integrate the driver into compact enclosures without compromising output capability. The driver’s efficient parameter set supports use in dedicated midrange sections requiring high acoustic output and controlled response.
Typical applications include:
- Professional multi-way loudspeaker systems
- Stage monitor systems
- Compact line arrays
- Vocal reinforcement systems
- Professional PA loudspeakers
- Installed sound reinforcement systems
