Danley Sound Labs SM80T Synergy Horn Coaxial Loudspeaker
Tom Danley’s Synergy Horn™ fundamentally changed the audio business, as Danley cracked the code of developing horns that are full range, point source loudspeakers that are phase accurate, and consistent in response over the entire coverage angle. This advance allows multiple drivers of different bandwidths into a single horn and makes them behave as a single full range loudspeaker. The SM80 is simply a smaller, lighter version of the Synergy Horn family. What that means is that SM loudspeakers deliver the same clarity and full range of audio thanks to their proprietary single source technology. And, because of its size and weight, the SM family can provide amazing sound in a wide range of methods.
Don’t let it’s size fool you, the slam and impact of this compact loudspeaker can easily reach distances over 260 feet due to it’s zero-self-interference design. On top of that, the incredible pattern control of a full-face constant-directivity horn keeps the acoustic energy on the audience and not the walls or ceiling, which increases direct-to-reverberant ratios and thus improving intelligibility indoors. Outdoors, the Synergy Design is less prone to interference to wind than multi-cabinet deployments, is safer and quicker to set-up on a conventional tripod stand, and the pattern control effectively reduces off-site noise.

Allen & Heath iLive Digital Audio Mixing System
iLive is a uniquely flexible digital mixing system. By putting the DSP and audio in the MixRack global audio leaders Allen & Heath have opened up a whole world of control and networking possibilities. An iLive system can be anything from a full blown touring rig controlled by modular Surfaces that look and feel much like conventional mixing consoles, right through to an ultra-compact setup with just a MixRack controlled via a laptop or tablet. Firmware and show files are compatible throughout the iLive family, making it easy to transfer settings from one iLive system to another.
Audio connections are kept at the stage with the stage box, and remotely controlled by the surfaces over a single CAT5 cable. The surfaces are simply a controller for the MixRack but also provide local inputs and outputs at the mix position. All models feature a touchscreen, name and colour virtual ‘write-on’ strips, banks of motorized faders with independent layers, SoftKeys, built-in headphones, local monitor and talkback. All offer the same control, the difference being the number of faders and a reduced rotary control section for the smaller models. Each bank of faders has 4 or 6 layers providing between 72 and 112 control strips depending on the Surface size. For smaller events, the MixRack can be completely controlled wirelessly via tablet or PC for an ultra-compact setup.
Brown Bear Sound’s inventory includes two 64-channel/32-bus MixRacks each fitted with 64x64 Dante Digital Interface cards, three control surfaces, two tablets and one waterproof touchscreen PC controller.

JTR Speakers Orbit Shifter Pro Folded Horn Subwoofer
This large format subwoofer utilizes a heavy-duty proprietary 18” driver with a large Xmax of 30mm one-way, coupled to a folded, front loaded bass horn with large mouth opening to reduce turbulence and therefore distortion. Comparable in size to a typical dual-18” bass-reflex subwoofer, but with high efficiency and high power handling allows a single Orbit Shifter to replace more than two dual-18” conventional professional grade subwoofer cabinets. All of this while using less truck volume, set-up time, power compression and amplifier power.
With a frequency response of 34-121Hz that reaches even deeper when used in multiples, and a maximum output of 148dB, this easily transportable subwoofer with rattle the foundations of any concert. Built-in handles at the top and bottom, tilt-back rattle-free casters, and a drawn-steel pole mount make this subwoofer an ideal base for pole-mounted mains. Brown Bear Sound’s inventory includes four Orbit Shifter subwoofers driven by high-efficiency Class-D amplifiers with three-stage limiters and precisely tuned crossovers to suit any of our deployments.
