MARTIN AUDIO BLACKLINE F10+

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

Blackline F10+
Compact two-way passive system

The Blackline F10+ is a versatile, two-way passive system, designed to provide exceptional sound reinforcement and stage monitoring from a very compact enclosure. It features a powerful 10” (250mm) low frequency driver and a 1” (25mm) HF compression driver mounted on a constant directivity 90° x 50° horn. Depending on the application, the HF horn can be rotated to allow the multi-angle enclosure to be used in either its vertical or horizontal orientation. A demodulating ring fitted to the LF driver reduces distortion and improves the performance at the upper end of the LF driver’s range at high levels. Additionally, the directivity of the LF driver has been matched to the HF horn by a combination of optimisation of the water-resistant LF cone profile and improved crossover design.

Use of a controller with the F10+ is optional. For demanding applications, an M3+ or DX1 controller configured to perform EQ and limiter functions is recommended.

Features

• Compact two-way system
• User rotatable 90° x 50° horn
• Flexible mounting options
• Five year limited warranty

Applications

• Club sound reinforcement
• Unobtrusive stage monitoring

MARTIN AUDIO BLACKLINE F12+

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

Blackline F12+
Compact two-way passive system

The Blackline F12+ is a high power, compact two-way system with a new, vented-chassis, 12” (300mm) LF driver and a new 1” (25mm) exit compression driver mounted on a rotatable 80° x 50° constant directivity HF horn. The LF driver has a tough, water resistant cone and features a high BL motor with a flat-wire copper coil and an aluminium demodulating ring. This reduces intermodulation distortion and improves midrange performance when driven hard. Increased excursion is available by virtue of a triple roll surround and deep motor structure. The directivity of the LF driver has been matched to the HF horn in the crossover region by improved crossover design and cone profile optimisation, also the new HF compression driver utilises an ultra-lightweight Kapton diaphragm for extended high frequency response.

A Martin Audio M3+ or DX1 Electronic Controller is available to provide F12+/subwoofer crossover and limiter facilities.

Features

• Compact two-way passive system
• User rotatable 80° x 50° horn
• Top hat fitting for speaker stand mounting
• Five year limited warranty

Applications

• Live club performance
• Floor monitor
• Club installs
• AV presentations

MARTIN AUDIO BLACKLINE F15+

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

The high power Blackline F15+ is a high performance, wide-bandwidth system in a compact and efficient package. Extended frequency response is provided by a new 15” (380mm) LF driver and a new 1.4” (35mm) exit compression driver mounted on a rotatable 80° x 50° constant directivity HF horn. The new LF driver features a tough, water resistant cone and a lightweight, high BL, neodymium motor system with inside/outside coil windings for improved heat transfer. An aluminium demodulating ring reduces distortion and improves midrange clarity at high levels and increased excursion is available via a triple roll surround and deep motor structure. The new HF driver utilises a titanium diaphragm with controlled break-up modes for improved sonic performance at high frequencies and the crossover design and LF cone profile have been optimised to match the directivity of the HF horn and LF section through the crossover region.

A Martin Audio M3+ or DX1 Electronic Controller is available to provide F15+/subwoofer crossover and limiter facilities.

Features

• Wide-bandwidth system
• User rotatable 80° x 50° horn
• Top hat fitting for speaker stand mounting

MARTIN AUDIO BLACKLINE F215+

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

Blackline F215+
Two-way passive reflex with dual bass drivers

The Blackline F215+ is a two-way passive, trapezoidal enclosure with dual 15” (380mm)/3” (75mm) voice coil low frequency drivers and a 1.4” (35mm) exit titanium diaphragm compression driver, mounted on a proprietary, rotatable, 80° x 50° constant directivity horn.

Below 250Hz, both LF drivers operate together to produce low frequencies, whilst above 250Hz, only the upper LF driver is used to reproduce the midrange up to the crossover point. This technique avoids the uneven response which would occur if both drivers were allowed to operate together over the midband.

Each of the two new LF drivers features a tough, water resistant cone and a lightweight, high BL, neodymium motor system with inside/outside coil windings for improved heat transfer. An aluminium demodulating ring improves the midrange performance at high levels and increased excursion is available via a triple roll surround and deep motor structure.

The F215+ can be used with or without a controller. Use of the M3+ or DX1 will enhance the low frequency performance of the system and provide high quality limiters to protect the F215+ from being overdriven.

Features

• Very high SPL from a full range passive enclosure
• Extended low frequency performance from dual
• 15” (380mm) low distortion drivers
• User rotatable 80°x 50° horn
• 1.4” (35mm) exit titanium dome compression driver
