The self-powered JM-1P arrayable loudspeaker system provides precise horizontal control in a seamless, tight-packed array, while exhibiting an impressive power output of 138 dB max peak SPL at one metre, says the company.
The JM-1P's consistent polar response and trapezoidal enclosure allows for tight-packed arrays with each JM-1P cabinet adding 20 degrees to the horizontal coverage of the array, with minimal overlap in high frequencies. An array of three JM-1P loudspeakers provides 60 degrees horizontal coverage; an array of four JM-1P loudspeakers provides 80 degrees of horizontal coverage, and so on.
For sound designers working with highly reverberant or oddly shaped spaces, the JM-1P can accurately tailor the horizontal coverage to fit a room with a smooth response maintained throughout the venue, while avoiding echoes or excessive reverberation. The JM-1P features captive, easy-to-use QuickFly rigging, and can be flown in both vertical and horizontal configurations.
The JM-1P is designed to answer a variety of audio design challenges. It has the flexibility to serve as a main system, centre-fill and side-fill in large-scale sound systems.
