Electro-Voice expanded its stadiums and sports venue line up with the MTS series of full-range, high-output, long-throw, point-source loudspeaker systems.
Each MTS model is equipped with four 15-in woofers and dual coaxial mid/high frequency compression drivers. It generates more than 151 dB peak SPL with exact directivity for very-long-throw applications.
Four slot-loaded, high efficiency low-frequency drivers are symmetrically coupled to the same full-range waveguide as the compression drivers to create a true point-source with substantial bass response, eliminating the need for additional subwoofers in many applications.
The MTS series includes 16 models. These are based on two standard three-way configurations (MTS-4153) with 60- x 40-degree or 40- x 30-
degree coverage, and two cardioid configurations (MTS-6154) that provide the same coverage patterns with enhanced low-frequency directional control. The 60 x 40 models can deliver extremely high SPLs: 151 dB peak (music) and 154 dB peak (speech) down to 55 Hz at -10 dB; the 40 x 30 models are capable of 152 dB peak (music) and 155 dB peak (speech) down to 50 Hz at -10 dB. Each version is available with black or white finish, and each is available in a partially weatherised (PW) version for sheltered use or in a fully weatherised (FW) version for full exposure to the elements. All MTS loudspeakers have an IP55 rating.
MTS is engineered for use with amplification and processing from Dynacord as part of a Sonicue-driven hardware/software ecosystem. Design files are provided for advanced acoustical and mechanical system simulation in venues. Electro-Voice Preview loudspeaker software can be used to create acoustic designs with MTS, including those that augment the full-range MTS models with the recommended X12i-128 dual-18-in subwoofer.
