SM16
Dual-8” Passive Stage Monitor
QUICKSTART GUIDE
EXO
SM16 is an active high-performance stage monitor, featuring 2 x 8”
high-quiality woofers and a 3” compression driver. The 80º x 50º dispersion
provided by the horn offers a well defined coverage. Its compact design,
common in smaller monitors, surprises for its sound pressure.
EXO
SM16 allows for any kind of applications. In its vertical position, acts as
a powerful PA loudspeaker. It can be flown with a specific U-bracket.
EXO
SM16 stands out for its versatility and practicity due to its compact size.
The proximity of the acoustical centres of the two 8” woofers allows for
a slight narrowing of the acoustical lobes generated at the crossover
frequency, providing tighter directivity and greater focus on the horizontal
plane (in Stage monitor position), coinciding with the V/H offset of the HF
horn, favouring longitudinal coverage (parallel to the stage axis). This dual
woofer arrangement exhibits extremely dynamic response even a very high
SPL.
The HF section of the SM16-A utilizes a large magnetic assembly (150
mm) for a 3” voice coil, 1´4 exit compression driver (also present in
EVO
88)
coupled with an 80º x 50º horn.
This large HF system ensures clear, undistorted MF/HF and very high SPL at
both stage monitoring distances and in stage Fill/FOH applications.
EXO
SM16 offers all the most welcome features of a dedicated stage
monitor, with diminutive footprint, great multipurpose versatility and
extraordinary output for such a compact loudspeaker.
It is available with a tilt & lock U-Bracket for Pole mounting and Truss
suspension.
A two-unit wheeled flight-case (with all necessary power and signal
cabling) is optional, as well as soft-padded protective covers.
