TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
MH242iE
DESCRIPTION
A 2-way biamp mid/high system in a trapezoidal enclosure.
Includes 2x horn-loaded 12-in midrange cones and a 2-in
exit compression driver on a 40 x 30 constant directivity
horn.
APPLICATIONS
The MH242iE Virtual Array mid/high loudspeaker is engi-
neered to combine with BH, BV or TD Series LF modules to
create true 3-way large format arrays. 3-way design dramati-
cally improves the quality of vocal reproduction while the
cone-driven large format midrange horn extends pattern con-
trol into the lower octaves. It provides very long throw and
very high output in large scale permanent installations. Com-
prehensive mounting/suspension points. Six year warranty.
Applications include:
Large Theaters
Concert Halls
Stadiums
Cathedrals
Large HOW’s
Dance Clubs
