| The original design concept for the M2 was a compact near-to-midfield monitor, which would remove the need for larger built-in systems with their inherent problems of accuracy, installation and cost. Every component of the M2 has been designed for both quality of reproduction and extreme reliability, and each driver can comfortably handle very high transients with no degradation of signal or components, leading to an outstanding dynamic response when coupled with a suitable amplifier with good current capabilities.
The result is a system which, in its various configurations, is the most flexible monitor package ever designed. By combining M2 with Dynaudio Acoustics subwoofer systems, it is possible to use one basic package for anything from desktop to main monitoring.
The M2 is essentially flat from 45Hz to 20Hz, and the
specially designed bass, mid range and high frequency
drivers are capable of reproducing impulsive
transients of up to 1000W each without compression.
Stereo imaging is pinpoint accurate thanks to the
computer optimised designs of the crossover and drivers, and the M2 is capable of SPLs of up to 125dB at 1.25m as a stand alone system. When combined with a pair of Dynaudio Acoustics subwoofers, the system becomes a full 4 way main monitoring system capable of very high SPLs with a full frequency response down to below 35Hz.
APPLICATIONS
Producers and engineers from all over the world have
found that a mobile flight cased M2 system can
satisfy all their main monitoring requirements
wherever they work, thereby virtually eliminating the
problems associated with different rooms
and acoustics.
For television, radio and film work, the M2 provides
extremely accurate imaging with full frequency
response in a remarkably compact package,
occupying the minimum of "real estate" in a
busy control room.
MAIN FEATURES
