About the Turbosound MV212 Dual 12" Full Size Variable Curvature Line Array Element for Touring and Install Applications
The Turbosound MV212 is a full-size, high-output line array element engineered to deliver exceptional sonic clarity and powerful projection for large-scale touring sound systems and permanent installations. This versatile cabinet incorporates a dual 12-inch neodymium woofer configuration paired with a precision high-frequency compression driver, all housed within an optimized, trapezoidal enclosure designed for seamless acoustic coupling in vertical arrays. Its defining feature is the innovative Variable Curvature technology, which allows the physical adjustment of the cabinet's upper baffle to modify the vertical dispersion pattern, enabling system technicians to tailor the coverage angle precisely to the venue's geometry without needing multiple cabinet types. This adaptability makes it a powerful tool for achieving consistent sound pressure levels across both near and far fields.
The acoustic design prioritizes both high output and detailed fidelity, with the dual low-frequency transducers providing robust, articulate bass response and the advanced horn/waveguide ensuring smooth, controlled high-frequency dispersion. Components are driven by a sophisticated passive crossover network that optimizes phase alignment and power distribution between the drivers. The enclosure is constructed from rugged, multi-ply birch plywood and finished with a highly durable, textured coating to withstand the physical demands of road travel. Integrated, recessed rigging hardware based on industry-standard designs allows for quick, safe, and precise array assembly, with multiple points for attachment and safety lanyards.
As a core element of a large-format line array, the MV212 is built for scalability, capable of being flown in substantial numbers to cover expansive audiences in arenas, festivals, and major performance venues. Its performance characteristics are balanced to provide the headroom and dynamic range necessary for modern live music production while maintaining the intelligibility required for speech reinforcement. The combination of variable curvature, robust construction, and high-power handling establishes this cabinet as a professional-grade solution for audio engineers who require a single, flexible loudspeaker element that can be configured to meet the exacting acoustic challenges of diverse professional environments.
