At the NAMM 2012 Show, On Point Audio premiered the new OPA28 NP, a very compact dual-8-inch coaxial loudspeaker.
The high-output OPA28 NP measures 18.4 inches high, 7.3 inches wide and 8.1 inches deep. It’s diminutive size is made possible by On Point Audio’s proprietary Narrow-Profile 8-inch drivers, which are actually only 6.8 inches (172.72 mm) in diameter.
The loudspeaker also employs a coaxially mounted 1.35-inch / 34.3 mm pure titanium compression driver with 80-degree conical radiation so that the loudspeaker can be placed horizontally or vertically without changing its coverage pattern.
The OPA28 NP is specified as capable of delivering 127 dB maximum output, with 400-watt continuous, 1,600-watt peak power handling and high sensitivity.
The OPA28 NP’s enclosure is made of rigidly braced 12 mm birch plywood and is equipped with 14 x M8 metal reinforced suspension points that enable use of eyebolts, a pivoting U-Bracket and other optional suspension hardware for specialized applications.
The enclosure is coated with On Point Audio’s PowerCoat rugged external finish and is equipped with a heavy-gauge, CNC steel grille. The input section offers two Neutrik Speakon connectors and a 4-position barrier strip.
“The OPA28 NP’s unique combination of pristine sound, superb power handling, high output capability, incredible flexibility and slim, elegant enclosure is unmatched. Our dealers and customers will be thrilled by this competitively unique, high-value product,” says On Point Audio president and founder Doug MacCallum.
