TRIPOWER REFERENCE™

ISP Technologies introduces the ultimate in high performance, High-SPL and High Fidelity mobile sound-reinforcement systems: the “Concert Series”. You know the excitement of a live concert; the sound is high impact with huge amounts of power and extremely high SPL! Now you can have that same level of performance with high power, high SPL and amazing fidelity for any performance. ISP Technologies new Concert Series includes the novel, high performance Tripower Reference top box, a high output dual 15 low mid trap cabinet, and the XMAX subwoofers configured to be used as both 4-way and 5-way full Active Systems. The new high performance Concert Series systems offer sound reinforcement specifically designed to provide concert level SPL and high impact performance for venues with 500 to 2000 seats. Most systems designed for this level of performance, when driven even close to their limits, simply fall apart in the midrange portion of the spectrum. Virtually all of the systems designed for this size venue lack the deep powerful high impact bass required to reproduce a live kick drum and bass guitar and simply don’t deliver in the critical midrange frequency response from 400Hz up to 1.5KHz. The typical system uses a large format compression driver designed to cover frequencies from about 1KHz to 20KHz. The common problem is while the large format compression driver can deliver extreme SPL up to about 8KHz it seriously drops off in level above this frequency. These systems will typically apply high frequency equalization to boost the output level above 8KHz. The result is the compression driver starts ringing which generates audible intermodulation distortion. The sonic result is a gross degradation in fidelity, definition, and a general sound that’s typically shrill and not very distinct. The new Concert Series sound reinforcement systems from ISP Technologies offer a number of options for different venue sizes and SPL with the highest level of fidelity available and devoid of the above described problems. The new ISP Concert Series systems will outperform systems costing more than three or four times the cost and provide a fidelity, definition, and transient response previously unavailable at this price. The Tripower Reference offers outstanding high fidelity, high resolution, and high output sound. With 134dB peak SPL at 1 meter and a balanced spectral output, the Tripower Reference will become the new standard of speaker to which others aspire. The high-current 1150-watt RMS tri-amplifier uses the patent pending DAA™ power amplifier technology, and has 4th order electronic crossovers built-in, plus time alignment and phase correction. The high fidelity and high resolution of the Reference is achieved by a unique design whereby all drivers operate in their range of pistonic motion free from cone and diaphragm breakup, which plagues virtually all other designs. Designed for use with the XMAX subs,the upper bass and lower mids are handled by two 12-inch cast basket drivers with 4-inch edgewound voice coils and Kevlar impregnated cones, giving 1150 watts of continuous power capacity. A massive 4-inch, ferrofluid cooled voice coil compression driver with embossed titanium diaphragm takes care of the mids and is crossed over before breakup occurs. By using a high SPL, high performance 4-inch compression driver crossed over specifically within the frequency band where its output is ruler flat means the Reference maintains critical spectral balance providing Hi-Fidelity performance even at maximum SPL output. The highs are handled by a 1-inch throat, 1.75-inch voice coil compression driver with a non-resonant polyester diaphragm and a high energy neodymium magnet, offering a sweet, extended high end with extreme performance. Custom mid-frequency and high-frequency horns with 90 degrees horizontal coverage and an asymmetrical vertical pattern of 10 degrees up and 30 degrees down, give the Tripower Reference optimum far throw and near field coverage. The Reference is available in a single box system, with flyware and for mobile applications is also available as a 2-box system with a 2×12 trapezoid cabinet and a separate MID-HI pack. The Tripower Reference 2-box system has the power amplifier built in the 2×12 cabinet and power is fed to the MID-HI pack with a 4-conductor speakon cable. The MID-HI pack is less than 50 pounds making set-up and stacking easy. For the ultimate performance, add the Reference 215 cabinets and you have the stunning performance of a 5-Way full Active system. This system packs the punch that will astound your audience with both power and fidelity. The Reference 215 is a 1000 watt, active, low-mid trapezoid cabinet designed with a built in band-pass crossover network operating between 100Hz and 260Hz with 24db/octave slopes which provides that extra headroom and punch in the low mids. Not only do you have a 5-way system but you have now added an extra 2000 watts of power in the audio spec
