Product description
An active three-way cardioid monitor: a waveguide-loaded 25 mm dome and two 6-inch alumina-ceramic mids on the front, with two side-firing 8-inch woofers run in dual-opposed phase so the onboard DSP can steer a cardioid pattern that suppresses rear and side reflections. Hypex amplification (100 W + 250 W + 250 W) with a nine-band DSP controller, and analogue plus AES/EBU, coax and optical digital inputs.
