Controlled Power, Precise Dispersion

Power and Control

The Class D amplification delivers 1000 W with excellent efficiency, while the integrated DSP ensures protection of the amplifier and power supply. The "FIR-X" filtering optimizes the crossover between low and high frequencies for a stable sound image and clear transient response.

Drivers and Coverage

The 15-inch woofer (2.5-inch voice coil) provides solid low-end support, complemented by a 1.4-inch driver for high frequencies. The constant directivity waveguide ensures even coverage of 90 x 60 degrees, useful for maintaining the same sonic signature across the listening area.

Connectivity and Setup

Two Combo XLR and RCA inputs accommodate microphone, line sources, or players, with an XLR output for daisy-chaining to a subwoofer or slave speaker. Ergonomic handles, a carefully designed protective grille, and an enclosure adapted for floor monitoring (approximate 50-degree angle) facilitate transport, safety, and placement. M10 rigging points are provided for suspension in installations.
