Active Design: This means the speaker has its own built-in amplifier, eliminating the need for an external power amplifier. 1 This allows for optimized matching of the amplifier to the speaker drivers.
Full-Range Capability: Designed to reproduce a wide spectrum of audio frequencies, covering bass, midrange, and treble, suitable for various sound reinforcement applications.
Two-Way System (Most Likely): Typically comprises a woofer for low and mid frequencies and a tweeter for high frequencies, often with an internal crossover network to divide the audio signal appropriately.
Woofer Size: Likely features a woofer in the range of 10", 12", or 15", depending on the intended use and power output. Larger woofers generally provide more bass.
Tweeter Type: Probably uses a compression driver coupled with a horn to project high frequencies efficiently and with good dispersion, common in professional PA speakers.
Power Output: As a powered speaker, it will have a specified power output (RMS and peak) for its internal amplifier. This could range from a few hundred watts to over a thousand watts, depending on the model's intended application.
Frequency Response: Expect a specified frequency range (e.g., 50Hz - 20kHz ±3dB) indicating the range of frequencies the speaker can reproduce at a certain tolerance level.
Maximum SPL (Sound Pressure Level): A crucial specification for PA speakers, indicating the maximum loudness the speaker can produce at a certain distance (usually 1 meter).
Input Connectors: Typically includes professional input connectors such as XLR and 1/4" TRS jacks, often with selectable mic/line level sensitivity.
Output Connectors (Link/Mix Out): May feature output connectors to daisy-chain multiple speakers or send a mixed signal to other audio equipment.
EQ and Processing: Some powered speakers include basic EQ controls (e.g., bass and treble boost/cut) or even built-in digital signal processing (DSP) for more advanced equalization, limiting, and protection.
Cabinet Construction: Likely built with a robust and durable enclosure, often made of plywood or high-density plastic, designed to withstand the rigors of professional use.
Mounting Options: Typically includes pole mount sockets for placing the speaker on stands, and may also have rigging points for flown installations.
Protection Circuitry: Built-in protection circuits (e.g., overload, thermal) to prevent damage to the speaker components.
Potential Specifications (Illustrative Examples - Specifics for FR200B needed):
System Type: Active 2-way full-range
Woofer: 12" or 15"
Tweeter: Compression driver with horn
Amplifier Power: 200W - 500W RMS (This is a guess based on the "200" in the name, but could be higher)
