Martin Audio X12+ Compact, high output, two-way system

Compact, high output, two-way system from£POA

PRELIMINARY DATA

The Blackline X12+ is a high-power, high-output, two-way system equally suited to portable live sound applications and fixed installations. It features a high-specification 12” (300mm) low frequency drive unit and a 1” (25mm) exit compression driver mounted on a user-rotatable 80° x 50° constant directivity horn.

The 12” (300mm) LF driver has a lightweight 3” (75mm) voice coil and flux demodulation rings to reduce distortion at high excursions. Its neodymium motor system combines high sensitivity with low weight and advanced cooling reduces power compression to negligible levels. The 1” (25mm) exit HF driver has a 1.7” (44mm) titanium dome and ultra-high flux neodymium motor system for maximum efficiency, plus a copper cap to extend the HF response. The internal HF/LF crossover is switchable between passive or bi-amp operation, depending on user requirements.

The X12+ is the perfect solution for high-power applications where flexibility, ease of installation and speed of deployment are important factors. The versatile, multi-angle enclosure and rotatable horn facilitate either horizontal or vertical orientation, and comprehensive brackets support the full variety of mounting options – including surface, ceiling and pole mount. Integral M8 inserts for simple eyebolt suspension increase the options even further. In its +horizontal configuration, the X12+ is also ideal as a compact, high-output stage monitor.

When used in bi-amp mode, or with a subwoofer such as the Blackline S15+ or S18+, it is recommended that the X12+ is used with the Martin Audio DX1.5 or DX2 controller. When operated as a passive system, it may be used without a controller, but will benefit from the DX1.5 or DX2′s EQ and limiter functions.
