Applying Flare Audio's theory of Waveform Integrity, Flare Audio has revolutionised bass enclosures with the release of SB21, SB18 and SB12. These compact enclosures (less than half the size of typical 21", 18" and 12" sealed design bass loudspeakers) deliver clear strong bass over the driver's full frequency range without false enhancement.
The SB21C features a 21" 1400w driver in a 600mm x 600mm x 300mm 42kg enclosure, the SB18C houses an 18" 1200w driver in a 513mm x 513mm x 261mm 23.5kg enclosure and the SB12C, a 12" 900w driver in a 374mm x 374mm x 178mm enclosure.
Employing Flare Audio's patent-pending Vortexand Space technologies, the SB Series of bass enclosures remove pressure and port interference to create natural high definition sound over the whole of the driver's frequency range; essentially rendering the enclosure itself sonically invisible. The SB Series uses no internal dampening or artificial enhancement, it requires no tuning or electronic correction.
The natural high definition sound produced by the SB Series is highly controllable and containable and can be scaled from small portable use through to the largest venues. Easy to move around, setup and store, the savings in transportation costs for portable sound and touring is significant. The SB Series is a boon for venues, saving space and minimizing overspill outside the room. Installers are able to create a true 'wall of sound' or sink the SB enclosures into walls for a hidden, immersive bass experience.
Currently installed in everything from music industry executives' offices to the new Olympic Cinema, these versatile units are delivering on Flare's objective of delivering the artist's work as it was created, says the company.
Flare Audio is presenting both Club and Mobile systems in the AudioLab, and has a range of products on display at Stand B36.
