The hd ML8Beam is equipped with the latest beamsteering technology to offer a flexible adaptation of the speaker emission – up to 119 dB - in any kind of venues. In this way, a perfect sound distribution even in complex architectures and strongly reverberant rooms is achieved. In fact the unique Harmonic Design Algorithm enables one main beam to be steered to create a specific frequency independent opening angle. In this way the unit develops a much better speech intelligibility and creates an excellent listening experience of music for every listener. Therefore it’s the perfect solution for a lot of installations, as restaurants, bars, airports, train stations, home cinema, conference rooms, hotels, A/V, public buildings, concert halls, broadcast, conference and media technology. Using the intuitive software hd LevelZ, the sound field can be simulated and predicted, thus allowing to achieve the best possible result with the needed units, not wasting time to do tests nor wasting money. The ultra compact width of 80mm makes the hd ML8Beam the narrowest beamforming speaker on the market... almost unobtrusive in most fixed installations. To provide reliable and durable operations, the electronic – 75W amp for each 2” driver, DSP, etc. - is integrated into the housing of the loudspeaker and is optimally protected.
