AD-7242 Compression Driver – Precision Meets Power

The AD-7242 Compression Driver – Precision Meets Power compression driver, built to deliver exceptional high-frequency performance in professional PA systems, touring rigs, and permanent sound installations. With a powerful 120W RMS power capacity and program power handling up to 240W, it ensures outstanding audio clarity and projection even in the most demanding environments.

At its core lies a 72.5mm (3-inch) CCAW voice coil, engineered for excellent thermal conductivity and high sensitivity. This allows the driver to operate at high power levels without distortion or thermal fatigue. The sensitivity rating of 108 ± 2dB guarantees robust output with minimal power input—ideal for large venues, outdoor events, and high-SPL applications where every decibel counts.

The AD-7242 offers a wide frequency response of 800Hz to 20,000Hz, ensuring accurate reproduction of high frequencies. It delivers exceptional clarity for vocals, instruments, and sound effects. Whether you’re mixing live sound or setting up a fixed system, this driver provides dynamic range and crisp audio performance.

Durability is a key strength of the AD-7242. It features a titanium diaphragm, chosen for its light weight and resistance to fatigue, ensuring long-term reliability under heavy use. The Strontium Ferrite Y35 magnet generates a stable magnetic field for consistent, high-output performance across the entire frequency spectrum.

The AD-7242 measures 170mm in overall diameter and weighs 4.65 kg, providing a solid, durable build. It’s engineered for rugged use while remaining flexible enough for integration into mobile rigs and fixed installations.

Whether you’re upgrading your existing setup or building a new system from the ground up, the AD-7242 compression driver combines power, precision, and durability in a compact, professional-grade format. It’s the ideal solution for audio professionals who demand reliability, sonic excellence, and long-term performance.
