The Mackie C300Z is a mid-priced 2-way speaker with a 12" woofer and a 1.75" compression driver housed in a wide-dispersion constant directivity horn, with a 300 Watt average power handling capacity.
The asymmetrical design and internal damping of the C300Z contribute toward a natural sound reproduction free of phase anomalies, and the rugged enclosure may be pole-mounted, flown, or used as a floor monitor. C series speakers are tuned exclusively by the renowned EAW design team, and offer design concepts applied to elite loudspeaker systems at a fraction of the cost.
Portable Passive loudspeaker with 1.75" HF compression driver and 12" LF transducer
750W peak power handling
HF compression driver mounted on multi-celled aperture, with constant directivity horn for wide 90° x 45° dispersion angle
Accurate reproduction of upper mid-range and high frequencies, tuned Low Impedance Compensated Crossover(LICC) for matching driver beamwidth patterns
Asymmetrical monocoque design with no parallel surfaces, causes reflection of mid and high frequency resonances at angles into internal damping materials, minimizes phase anomilies and other signal distortion
Equally viable as floor monitor or mounted/flown PA speaker with natural frequency response and dispersion, free from feedback-causing transient spikes
Dynamic protection for compression driver, 2nd order high-pass filter for over-excursion protection
Inputs and thruputs for parallel connection of up to 2 sets of speakers from single amp channel or powered mixer
Rugged impact-resistant enclosure with sturdy side handles, pole-mount, and integrated rigging points for "flying" the speakers
