Beschrijving

KV2 Audio has announced the introduction of the new ESM312, the latest addition to its range of stage monitors, equipped with a three-way, high-output design that’s aimed at serving the needs of large-scale monitoring applications.

The ESM312 is a passive syste with two bass reflex-loaded 12-inch neodymium woofers, a single horn-loaded 6-inch mid-range woofer and a 1-inch compression driver in a compact Baltic birch cabinet. It is stated to deliver 133 dB sustained output and 136dB peak with high dynamic range.

The compression driver has a complex geometry phase plug and a neodymium magnetic structure to help produce exceptional output for its size along with low distortion and extended frequency response. The woofers sport a sophisticated voice coil design and neodymium magnetic motor structure for increased force, lower distortion and increased frequency response linearity.

The wedge-shaped cabinet incorporates rear-mounted flip-out stands to accommodate 35- or 45-degree angles as required. A specially designed acoustic fabric covering inside the grille is intended to protect against liquid spillage while a wear-resistant polymer coating is designed to withstand the rigours of touring and repeated stage use. An ergonomically designed recessed handle on each side panel facilitates handling and transport.

The ESM312 is the latest – and most powerful – addition to KV2 Audio’s range of high-quality stage monitors. Aimed at large scale stage monitoring applications, the ESM312 is a very high output full-range low profile 3-way, passive monitoring solution. With two bass reflex-loaded 12” neodymium woofers, a single horn loaded 6” mid-range woofer and a 1” compression driver in a compact, elegant Baltic birch cabinet, the ESM312 is truly one of the most impressive monitoring solutions on the market today.

KV2’s most powerful stage monitor yet, the passive ESM312 requires just one amplifier channel, but delivers 133dB sustained output, and 136dB peak with very high dynamic range. A state-of-the-art 1” compression driver with a complex geometry phase plug and a neodymium magnetic structure ensures exceptionally low distortion and extended frequency response. The ESM312 also features dual 12” woofers with sophisticated voice coil technology and neodymium magnetic motor structures for a solid impressive bass performance down to 40Hz. It’s ability to reproduce vocals is quite simply unmatched by anything else available on the market, whilst its cardioid characteristics, when used in pairs, give the artist a true ‘personal monitoring’ experience whilst preventing sound spillage across the stage.

The compact, wedge-shaped design incorporates rear-mounted flip-out stands to allow for 35 or 45-degree angles as required. A specially designed acoustic fabric covering inside the grille protects against liquid spillage whilst a wear-resistant polymer coating is designed to withstand the rigours of touring and repeated stage use. An ergonomically designed recessed handle on each side panel facilitates handling and transport.
