Turning its attention towards corporate A/V and fixed installation, Nexo has announced the Geo-M6 Series is– initially comprising the Geo-M620 arrayable cabinet and the Geo-M6B bass extension.
The Geo-M6 Series is, at launch, comprised of the Geo-M620 arrayable cabinet and the Geo-M6B bass extension.
The Geo-M620 is a full-range unit for stand-alone, curved array or line array applications. Extremely compact (191mm x 373mm x 260mm) and lightweight (under 10kg), it uses a Nexo-designed long-excursion high-efficiency 6.5-inch LF driver and 1x 1-inch throat driver on a BEA/FEA optimised HR Wavesource, to deliver a 80Hz-19kHz (±3dB) frequency response with nominal peak SPL of 127dB. HF dispersion is 80° or 120° horizontal, with 20° vertical coverage, 0° to 20° splay when arrayed. Using Nexo’s HRW waveguide for optimum HF coupling between elements, the M620 performs in a variety of configurations, facilitated by a fully-integrated three-point rigging system.
The Geo-M6B is a low and mid-frequency extension for more powerful reinforcement, such as live music. With one 6.5-inch 8Ω long-excursion driver, the M6B weighs 7.6kg and shares the same physical footprint as the M620, allowing the cabinets to be arrayed together in the same column. Featuring a flare-shaped port tube to increase low-frequency efficiency and linearity at high power, the M6B offers a usable range @-6dB of 70Hz-1kHz.
Made out of a lightweight polyurethane composite, the Geo-M6 cabinets are available to order in any RAL colour designation. Amplification is via Nexo’s NXAmp4x1 TDcontroller; with three cabinets per channel, this means that a 12-cabinet system can be powered by one amplifier, and controlled over a Dante or EtherSound network.
Geo-M620 loudspeakers can be used singly, in pairs, in curved arrays of three, in line arrays up to 12 cabinets long, depending on application and enabled by a range of simple accessories that allow flying, wall-mounting, pole-mounting and ground-stacking, pairing with any of Nexo’s range of subbass cabinets to create a portable SR solution. Geo-M6B bass extensions can be deployed inside a M620 line array, allowing increased line array length for improved directivity control and output in the low-mid frequency range.
‘The Geo-M6 Series delivers many benefits to a rental house, making inventory super-versatile and adaptable to different assignments,’ says Nexo Sales Director, Denis Baudier. ‘However, the design of this product also offers maximum potential in the permanent installation environment – whether it is a pair of M620s wall-mounted in a dynamic retail space, or 12 line-arrayed cabinets in a house of worship, the Series has the aesthetic and performance characteristics to appeal to many different applications.’
Intended applications include theatre, conference facilities and auditoria, exhibition centres, function rooms, airports, shopping malls and all sizes of houses of worship.
