SBÄM Festival Lake Pichlinger, Linz, Austria used products
Line Source Element G 10
The G10 is a passive high power line source element – acoustically optimized to reach an excellent sound quality and extraordinary performance. Particular attention was paid to the practical handling to ensure ideal transport characteristics as well as a quick and safe rigging.
High Power Subwoofer GB 218
Passive high power subwoofer equipped with two newly 18" long excursion neodymium speakers. The direct radiating design assures a extraordinary powerful and precise bass response at highest SPL down to the frequency limit of 25 Hz. Its bassreflex design has been optimized to minimize the flow noise. Due to the very low frequency tuning, the sound impression is voluminous but precise and responsive. The GB 218 is characterized by compact enclosure dimensions.
Line Source Element QL 906 90° x 6°
The 2-way line source unit QL 906 is equipped with two 1“ drivers coupled to a waveformer and two 8“ neodymium speakers combined with outstanding AQF acoustic filters. This filters, compounds of reticulated aminoplastic foams, dampen standing waves inside the speaker system and cancel parasetical side-lobars within the working direction, creating a wide while smooth horizontal dispersion and a perfect vertical scalability.
Stage Monitor MCX 12
The MCX 12 is a high-performance coaxial stage monitor offering various applications. Depending on the application, the design enables three set-up options: 35° angle for monitoring from short distances, 55° for longer distances, and 90° e.g. for front-fill applications at the stage edge. Due to its inconspicuous design, the MCX 12 fits harmoniously and eleganty into all surroundings. The speaker features a broad dispersion of 80°. The highly sturdy monitor convinces with its precise sound reproduction and gives musicians on stage a top-class sound experience. The flange inside the handle provides to possibility to use the MCX 12 as a PA system on a high stand. If required, the MCX 12 combines perfectly with the QLB 215 or QLB 118 X/G subwoofers. The monitor offers three Neutrik NL4 speakon connectors. Two of them are placed on the side of the high stand flange.
Stage Monitor MCX 15
The MCX 15 is a coaxial high performance monitor with low profile casing design. The design enables two set up options – with a flat angle of 35° for a monitoring from near to short distances and a steep angle of 55° for longer distances. With its elegant look it harmoniously fits into all surroundings. Due to the solid construction and the high protective front grid the MCX 15 can deal perfectly with
the hard stage requirements. The dispersion of 60° vertical and 40° horizontal has been adapted to the monitor angle and can be rotated by 90°. Each, left and right side includes a connection panel with each two Neutrik NL 4 Speakon sockets for an efficient cabeling and linking of the stage signals. In multifunctionality the MCX 15 sets new standards with a highstand flange inside the handle and two KME Variofix mounting points where a flying frame can be installed quickly and easy without any tools. The MCX 15 can be combined with the subwoofers QLB 215 and QLB 118 X/G, e.g. as a drum fill or front system.
Hybrid Source Element QF 5045 V2
The single hybrid array element QF 5045 V2 (newly developed high frequency unit) with a dispersion of 50° horizontal and 45° vertical is an absolute novelty in the combination of line source and point source technologies. The QF 5045 V2 contains a high frequency unit with 4 x 1“ HF drivers which are coherently working on a waveguide guaranteeing a precise dispersion and seamless transition of the high frequencies between the array elements. The mid range system is a direct radiating 12“ neodymium speaker. In this system the requirements for compact dimensions, high SPL and defined dispersion of a line array are combined in a symbiosis. The tonal tuning enables the operation of the 2-way system as full-range system or as mid/high system within a powerful PA combination. The QF 5045 V2 is optimized for clustering of maximum three units both in groundstacking and flying mode. Furthermore, thanks to the integrated flange, the operation on a high stand is possible.
QLB 215
The high power, universal bass system QLB 215 with exceptional sound quality comes with optimized transport dimensions for truck and transporter. Inside, two newly developed 15“ long excursion speakers work in a hybrid arrangement ensuring small dimensions remaining low cutoff frequency and minimizes airflow noise especially at low frequencies. The QLB 215 can be used together with either Line Array systems or other top units. Using suitable amplifiers (i.e. DA 230) the customer can construct directional bass arrays with more units. Two Speakon sockets on the back side and one socket in the front grid ensure easy cabling for all chosen using modes. An option for wheel mounting is also available on the back side.
