d&b audiotechnik unveiled the latest addition to its stage monitor range, the M4, along with the large-scale J-Series range, and the latest software additions to the d&b Remote network. The M4 is a 2-way high performance stage monitor with an integrated 15"/1.3" exit coaxial driver with a CD horn and passive crossover network. In its standard 50° x 70° dispersion configuration it provides a defined coverage area and, when used upright, serves as a powerful PA system. The M4 can be operated in 2-way active mode by changing the d&b D12 amplifier's configuration without any modifications to the loudspeaker.

The new J-Series is designed for large-scale applications, and as was ably demonstrated, is very quick to rig. The J8 and J12 produce a dispersion pattern of 80° and 120° respectively, using the same driver complement, vertical directivity, size, weight and rigging fittings. The J8 covers a distance range of over 100m and the J12 is suitable for short and medium throws of up to 40m. The J-SUB cardioid subwoofer completes the series and has a bass-reflex design using three 18" high excursion drivers, one of which radiates to the rear to produce cardioid or hypercardioid subwoofer performance
