Description
The ARC Audio AS100 is a matched pair of 27 mm fine-woven silk-dome tweeters designed for active and DSP-controlled speaker systems. The raw-tweeter format allows crossover frequency, slope, equalization, delay, and level to be set around the vehicle installation rather than relying on a fixed passive network.
An N35 neodymium motor with a precision-machined top plate and secondary bucking magnet drives the silk dome. A copper shorting ring helps control inductance and non-linear distortion, while the tuned rear chamber manages dome compliance and resonance for smoother operation near the lower end of the tweeter’s range. Internal venting beneath the diaphragm assists heat dissipation during extended listening.
The AS100 is rated for a published minimum recommended power of 70 watts, a maximum of 185 watts, and 92 dB sensitivity. Integrated protective grilles are included.
