MV212 Variable Curvature Line Array Element

The MANCHESTER MV212 is a full-size dual 12-inch, three-way passive line array element engineered for sound reinforcement in touring and fixed-install applications. Designed in conjunction with Lake DSP and Lab Gruppen amplification, it provides the FOH performance and array flexibility required for medium-to-large venues.

Transducers and Coverage

Two 12-inch neodymium cone low-frequency drivers are paired with two dual-concentric MF/HF compression drivers, producing a 100-degree horizontal by 5-degree vertical nominal pattern at -6 dB. Variable inter-cabinet splay angles allow the array to be tuned to venue geometry.
