MV212-XV
The Bi-amped 3-way full range MV212-XV is a compact dual 12" 790-Watt line array element that is ideally suited to a broad range of speech and music sound reinforcement applications in fixed installation, portable and touring audio systems. The MV212-XV is designed to work in conjunction with Lake DSP and Lab Gruppen amplification, providing optimal FOH performance, as well as offering considerable flexibility to readily adapt to varying venue requirements.
Custom-Engineered Drivers
Turbosound is recognised the world over for designing and building some of the most iconic loudspeakers and subwoofers. We take meticulous care and pride in maintaining that reputation by utilising only drivers designed specifically for each application – it’s what sets us apart from the competition.
Featuring two 12" neodymium cone low frequency drivers and 1 dual concentric MF/HF compression driver, the MV212-XV delivers unparalleled clarity and intelligibility in a compact enclosure that belies its impressive performance. Due to its broad 100° horizontal by 10° vertical dispersion pattern, the MV212-XV provides exceptional coverage in wide rooms and in distributed fill applications.
Construction and Connectivity
An integral suspension system engineered to meet BGV-C1 specifications is provided for suspending or ground stacking multiple MV212-XV elements per hang guided by a WLL safety factor. Designed for speed and simplicity of use, custom-engineered flybars are available as separate accessories. The companion MS215 dual 15" subwoofer is specifically designed for use with MV212-XV, providing additional low frequency extension and impact for more demanding sound reinforcement applications. Finished in ultra hard wearing black polyurea, the cabinet is constructed from 15 mm ¾") birch plywood and includes a rugged powder coated perforated steel mesh grille backed with reticulated foam. The rear panel connector plate carries Neutrik speakON * NL4 connectors for input and link connections to additional enclosures.
Integration with Lab Gruppen PLM+
With the ever increasing complexity of modern day line array systems. Seamless integration with the Lab Gruppen PLM+ is a prerequisite for the MANCHESTER series from Turbosound. Our engineers have prepared and meticulously designed a series of presets that will allow the user to achieve the maximum system performance and consistency possible. These can be found within the download section.
Acoustic Simulation Tools
EASE GLL files are provided for EASE Focus Acoustic Simulation Software, which is available for free download. This allows accurate calculation of both acoustic coverage and suspension pick point selection for tilting and aiming the array at the desired angle.
Architecture & Engineering Specifications
The loudspeaker shall be of the three-way bi-amp passive type consisting of two 12" (315 mm) LF drivers and one 1.4" (36 mm) HF exit MHF compression driver (MF:4”/100mmVoice Coil diameter, HF: 2.5” / 65mm Voice coil diameter). Performance specifications of a typical production unit shall meet or exceed the following: frequency response, measured with swept sine wave input, shall be flat within ±3 dB from 50 Hz to 20 kHz and within -10 dB from 35 Hz to 20 kHz. Nominal dispersion, at -6 dB points, shall average 100° H x 10° V. Nominal impedance shall be HF: 12 Ohms, LF: 8 Ohms. Power handling shall be MHF: 190 Watts continuous, 760 Watts peak, LF: 600 Watts continuous, 2400 Watts peak. Sensitivity, measured on axis, mean averaged over the stated bandwidth, shall be MHF: 114.5 dB, 1 Watt @ 1 metre, LF: 101 dB, 1 Watt @ 1 metre. Maximum SPL of 143 dB (Average Peak level over overlap bandwidth. Measured at 1 metre on axis with dedicated pre-set). Dimensions: 354 high x 810 wide x 490 mm deep (13.9 x 31.9 x 19.3"). Net weight: 50 kg (110.2 lbs). The loudspeaker system shall be the TURBOSOUND MV212-XV. No other loudspeaker shall be acceptable unless submitted data from an independent test laboratory verifies that the above combined performance / size specifications are equalled or exceeded.
