The North Line CH430T is an all-weather, wide-range horn speaker designed for clear voice paging, background music and tone signalling in commercial public address systems.
It combines the long-throw speech projection of a horn speaker with the fuller sound quality of a 4.5-inch full-range dynamic driver. Its frequency response extends from 100 Hz to 12 kHz, making it more suitable for music and general audio than a traditional narrow-range paging horn.
The constant-directivity horn provides controlled 90-degree horizontal coverage for consistent sound across the listening area. A built-in transformer supports selectable 70V and 100V power taps, while the 8-ohm bypass setting allows connection to compatible low-impedance amplifiers.
