When seeking a line array pro-touring PA cabinet capable of handling the largest venues, the specifications are exceptionally demanding. You require a speaker operating within ±3dB from 80Hz to 12kHz, boasting an average sensitivity of 108dB per watt, an output capability of 135dB, weighing under 100 pounds, and occupying less than 12 cubic feet. While such a comprehensive solution seems like it should be available, in reality, manufacturers don’t offer a commercial speaker that meets all these criteria simultaneously.
Enter the DR300—a groundbreaking solution that uniquely combines efficiency, bandwidth, output capability, size, weight, and versatility unmatched in the industry. Measuring 30 inches by 24 inches by 28 inches, the DR300 provides comparable volume to industry benchmarks like the EAW KF760 but at less than half the weight. It delivers a long-term low-frequency output of 135dB—surpassing the KF760 by 7dB—while requiring only an 800-watt amplifier compared to the 2000 watts needed for the EAW model. Its two-way system allows operation with two power amps instead of three, and it can even run with a passive crossover if extensive amplification equipment isn’t available. The DR300 stands as a highly competitive solution for professional audio needs, offering performance characteristics unparalleled by any other manufacturer.
