The MFLA-MK3 is a high fidelity and extremely high output Dual 12” driver Dual 1.4” compression driver active line array cab. It features Ultra-Wide Horizontal Coverage, Superior Projection of High Frequencies, and Excellent Bass Performance.
The all new MK3 series deliverers a suite of updates to the BASSBOSS line, improving clarity, performance, functionality, and safety via the new amplifiers, new DSP, custom control software, waterproof connectors, and more.
The updated amplifiers + DSP feature much more powerful 96 kHz processors with pristine sound quality and eight touch-of-a-button on board presets.
The new state-of-the-art asymmetrical Class D amplifier provides a true 3200 Watts of RMS power and features enhanced power allocation between the HF and LF drivers. The fully integrated and comprehensive digital processing ensures smooth response and reliable operation thanks to meticulous filter alignments and multi-stage limiters that protect the drivers from excessive peaks & thermal overload by monitoring real power output over time.
New “Control BASSBOSS” software provides additional computer-accessible presets, networked remote control, and future proofing remote DSP update capabilities as new BASSBOSS programming is developed and released. Each unit features dual ethernet ports with a built-in network switch for computer connectivity and cascading networking ability.
IP65 waterproof connectors have been added to provide peace-of-mind in unpredictable environments, and the MK3 line offers 90-250VAC global power compatibility for use all over the world.
The comprehensive processing ensures consistent, undistorted high-SPL operation and maximum reliability. All the processing necessary for linear frequency response and phase coherent operation are pre-programmed into the DSP, delivering exceptional dynamic resolution and detail along with precise control. The proprietary processing programmed into the BASSBOSS MFLA provide the ease of plug-and-play operation and very simple and easy setups.
The MFLA cabinet features innovations in performance and practicality. The forward output of the dual 12” woofers pass through a multi-aperture diffraction matrix that distributes mid-range energy evenly and in phase over the height of the cabinet. This matrix thereby reduces the acoustical source spacing to provide exceptional projection of mid-range frequencies. The matrix also shifts upper-midrange frequency output toward the center of the cabinet, which broadens the horizontal dispersion of the midrange frequencies. Because this technology allows the MFLA to deliver coherent midrange propagation from a symmetrical 2-way design, the high frequency lenses can be utilized for extremely wide horizontal coverage, even off-axis, eliminating the need for front-fills.
The rear output of the woofers enters a vented enclosure that features integrated damper structures that enhance midrange clarity along with extensive bracing for minimal resonance. The vents are located to further improve midrange clarity and provide for wider horizontal coverage capability while they do their primary duty of delivering exceptional low frequency performance. Their location also provides for a secondary function of ducting cool air directly over the low-frequency driver motors for reduced thermal compression and improved reliability.
Fixed-Point Flyware ensures absolutely consistent box-to-box alignment. The high-frequency output remains coherent at higher frequencies because the cabinets cannot move front-to-back once the pins are inserted. This precision alignment in the direction that influences time domain is critical for the phase of high-frequency signals to remain coherent from box to box. This feature dramatically improves the very high-frequency propagation effectiveness of the entire array, allowing the MFLA to deliver pristine highs at greater distances.
The MFLA Flyware features a simultaneous compression and tension mechanism, allowing the cabinets to be flown or ground stacked using the same simple setup. The proprietary flyware design ensures there is no slack and no shifting in the box alignment once the boxes are pinned. The mechanism allows for single-handed adjustment of splay angles for ground-stacked operation or in preparation for flying.
The culmination of technology, components, features, DSP, and design has resulted in one of the most powerful, yet poised line array systems in the world.
