Martin Audio Blackline S12+ Compact, sub-bass system

The Blackline S12+ is an extremely compact sub-bass system. It has been designed for use with the F8+ and F10+ full-range loudspeakers in situations where extended low frequency output and increased system headroom are required. When used with an F8+ or F10+, it will extend the response of the complete system to below 50Hz.
It features a new, high power 12” (300mm)/3” (75mm) voice coil, long excursion drive unit reflex loaded in a birch plywood enclosure. The driver has a water resistant cone and inside/outside coil windings for improved heat transfer. The S12+ can operate in either passive add-on mode using its own internal switchable passive network or may be used actively with an M3+ or DX1.5 controller. In the active configuration, the controller will provide crossover, EQ and limiter functions for the S12+ and F8+/F10+ combination.
The S12+ is provided with a top hat fitting that can be used to pole mount an F8+ or F10+ above the enclosure.
