FA22 Dual 12" Coaxial Loudspeaker
Product Series: FA Portable
A portable, 3-way multi-purpose loudspeaker. Its rotatable horn provides broad coverage that is beneficial in both stage monitor and mains operation. Its multi-faceted enclosure includes a pole mount socket, 40° and 50° rear angles for stage monitor use, and M10 threaded accessory plates for use with optional suspension hardware.
Overview
The FA22 is a portable 3-way coaxial loudspeaker that is well suited
for a variety of sound reinforcement applications. Its neodymium
coaxial transducer and 90° x 45° horn provide broad coverage that
is beneficial in both stage monitor and mains operation, and its
dedicated neodymium low frequency transducer provides additional
low frequency directivity and mid bass impact. Its multi-faceted,
enclosure includes a pole mount socket, 40° and 55° rear angles
for stage monitor use, and M10 threaded accessory plates for use
with user-supplied suspension hardware. The compact enclosure is
vertically-oriented, but if a horizontal orientation is desired, it can
be easily obtained by exchanging the pole socket with one of the
M10 accessory plates and rotating the coaxial transducer to provide
appropriate coverage angles.
Fulcrum Acoustic’s TQ™ processing is an integral part of the FA22
design. Sound, innovative acoustical design combined with state of
the art digital processing leads to exceptional clarity and precise
transient response, even at very high sound pressure levels. The
required digital signal processing can be provided by one of many
supported platforms. Free air and stage monitor presets are available
for all platforms.
The FA22’s unique TQPassive™ internal crossover is designed to
work in conjunction with TQ™ processing. It provides the high
efficiency, excellent damping, and precise directional control normally
associated with tri-amplified operation, but it does not require a third
amplifier and processor channel. There are no resistive components
in the crossover to heat up, so its response remains consistent even at
high levels.
The FA22ac’s versatility, high performance, and aesthetic appeal make
it a compelling choice for A/V rental companies, live performance
venues, corporate A/V, nightclub PA, theatrical productions, and more.
