Nexo and Yamaha gear up for BPM 2019
- Details
Having recently won a PLASA Award for Innovation, the Nexo P12 point-source loudspeaker will be a highlight, along with the L15 subwoofer. Described by the PLASA judges as “the loudspeaker version of lighting’s [ETC] Source Four, having interchangeable horns with tool-less interchangeability”, the P12 features a system for varying high-frequency coverage patterns. Available in both touring and installation versions, the P12 is ideal for a wide range of short-throw sound reinforcement applications.
BPM visitors will be able to hear the P12 and L15 in action at the show’s Sound Experience, where a range of speaker manufacturers will have three demonstration slots each day.
Yamaha will also be showing a range of its loudspeaker systems, including the DZR Series of bi-amped powered loudspeakers; each of the four models also has a Dante-enabled counterpart, allowing users to fully integrate a DZR system with Audinate’s industry-leading digital audio networking.
DZR loudspeakers are complemented by DXS XLF Series powered subwoofers, which feature frequencies extended down to 30Hz, perfect for professional touring DJs, musicians and sound engineers who need extra low end. The DXS18XLF and DXS15XLF are also both available in a Dante-enabled version.
New Yamaha models on show will include the DXRmkII Series of powered loudspeakers, an upgraded four-model range which combines power and innovation to deliver impressively high output with superior quality and clarity. And for maximum convenience, STAGEPAS 1K is an all-in-one portable PA system that combines the highest sound quality and SPLs with lightweight cabinet design, professional mixing functions, simple setup and control.
Finally, Yamaha will be showcasing its HS Series powered nearfield monitors. Building on the legacy of the NS10, the HS5, HS7 and HS8 are available in both black and white models, with all available in an I version (featuring added mounting points), plus the black HS8S subwoofer.
