dBTechnologies B·HYPE-15 2-Way Active Speaker

The dBTechnologies B·HYPE-15 2-Way Active Speaker provides a professional sonic performance to all kind of users. The most accurate sound reproduction combined with aggressive sound pressure levels and enhanced portability.

B·Hype series aims to provide a professional yet efficient sonic performance to all kind of users, combining an extremely efficient CLASS D amplifier with aggressive sound pressure levels (up to 126,5 dB for the 15” cabinet), while delivering the most accurate sound reproduction.

The new dBTechnologies B·HYPE-15 2-Way Active Speaker is a versatile active speaker. It is equipped with one 1” neodymium compression driver (1” voice coil), and one 15” woofer (2” voice coil). The dispersion pattern is asymmetrical on vertical axis, and it is diversified (top and bottom) on the horizontal one. This allows a narrower and more efficient sound coverage, and a better performance in case of reverberant environments. The combo input (with source type selection) allows an easy and versatile use, suitable for a dynamic microphone and standard line input. The user can enhance lower and upper frequencies with the convenient DSP preset function. A balanced link output allows the audio connection to a second loudspeaker.

The featherweight cabinets (from 14 to 38 lbs) come with a clean and contemporary full grille design, enhancing both portability (3 handles -1xside and 1 on top-) and multifuncionality: each cabinet can be used horizontally as a stage monitor (on both sides) and features a pole mount cup in order to be used on tripods or stacked on dBTechnologies Subs.

Features:

• Maximum efficiency up to 126,5 dB SPL
• Professional acoustic performance
• Innovative horn design for uniform and extended coverage
• Compact featherweight
• Clean and contemporary design enhancing portability
• 3 handles
