FMX 10

Thank you for choosing a dBTechnologies Product!

The FMX 10 is a versatile coaxial active stage monitor. It is equipped with one 1” compression driver (1” voice coil), and one 10” woofer (2” voice coil). The coverage pattern is 60° (H) x 90° (V), (the horn is rotatable) and the mechanical design allows also the vertical usage (36 mm diameter pole mount hole). A powerful DSP can adapt the live or playback performances to different usage scenarios. The balanced audio input allows the usage of a microphone or a line source (a mixer or instrument).
