The new Alpha+ Hybrid Source Sound System from NEXO is a quick and easy-to-stack three-box system that includes M210 Main, B218 Bass and L20 Sub-bass modules. This large-scale point-source system focuses primarily on mid to large size FOH applications, from live music and clubs to theaters and venues.
Quick and easy to stack, Alpha + is a three-box system comprising M210 Main, B218 Bass and L20 Sub-bass modules. The M210 is a horn-loaded double-10” with four 3” HF compression drivers, the B218 a horn-loaded double 18” subwoofer and the L20 a band-pass single-20” sub taken from the existing P+ Series range. With a comprehensive range of hardware available, stacked and installed systems of various sizes can be configured with Main and Bass modules typically used together in a ratio of 1:1.
The continuously varying horizontal directivity from 60° at the top of the M210 Main Module to 120° at the bottom can be modified to 90°/120° or 60°/60° using flanges, and the waveguide block can be “unlocked” and its articulation changed from Narrow vertical coverage (0°/-20°) to Wide/Standard (+20°/-20°). Such control over dispersion characteristics gifts Alpha + with many of the benefits of line array coupling in a configuration referred to by NEXO as Hybrid Source, along with the easy deployment typical of point source systems.
NEXO’s 4 x 4,500 Watt (2 Ohms) NXAMP4X4Mk2 Powered TD Controller provides the perfect amplification and processing platform for the Alpha + Series. A basic stacked system of one M210, one B218 and two L20 left and right requires a single NXAMP4X4Mk2 for each side, with two channels for the Main, one for the Bass and one for both Subs.
“Like its predecessor, Alpha + is an impressively powerful system, with new features that make a lot of sense in the modern world,” says NEXO sales and marketing director Gareth Collyer. “A stacked system that can handle a mid-sized festival stage saves a lot of cost building towers and flying line arrays, and Alpha + goes where a line array won’t — such as theaters and venues without hanging points. And all the clubgoers around the world who’ve enjoyed a great night on an Alpha-powered dance floor are in for a real treat when they hear Alpha +”.
