Frequently asked questions
What is the actual difference between these two speakers?
Product B explicitly specifies an integrated multi-tap transformer supporting both 70/100V and 8-ohm operation, while Product A focuses on standard configuration details.

Can I use the AWC62 in a 70V distributed system?
