The Bose® Modular Bass Loudspeakers: Good Things Do Come In Small Packages!
Panaray® MB4 Modular Bass Loudspeaker
The Panaray® MB4 modular bass loudspeaker is a 200W, low-frequency loudspeaker that can be used for indoor permanent installations and for portable applications. Multiple MB4 speakers can be combined to effectively create a larger single bass enclosure resulting in higher SPL. The MB4 speaker’s output, bandwidth and size make it useful as a single bass unit, or as a modular building block to match other Bose® products in most professional systems. The MB4 speaker can also be used in conjunction with the MB4 endfire or broadside bass array brackets and the Panaray® system digital controller to create directional bass.
The MB4 speaker can be used with the Bose® Panaray® system digital controller to provide smooth accurate spectral response over the entire operating range of the system. The MB4 speaker can also be used with the Bose 1600 or 1800 amplifiers in combination with the MB4 plug-in EQ card to provide active equalization for the system. The Bose® ControlSpaceTM ESP88 system does also provide speaker equalization to match various modular bass configurations.
Panaray® MB12 Modular Bass Loudspeaker
This is the newest addition to the Panaray® LT family of loudspeakers. This unit is a compact modular bass loudspeaker that uses proprietary Bose® technology to deliver extended low frequency response and high output without audible port noise.
