UK - dB Technologies new electronically-controlled active system, Fifty Line, is a flexible and compact PA system with three main components. The FL10 passive high frequency speaker, equipped with a horn loaded 10" woofer and a B&C 1" pressure driver (coaxially mounted). dB has used its long history and experience in plastics to develop this horn and this is reflected in the weight, sound and output pressure of the system. The 1" driver has been specially designed and manufactured for the unit to achieve an smooth frequency and dispersion.

FL15 is the mid-bass of the system, incorporating both a 500W/RMS power amp and a 300 +100 W/RMS power amp, used to power the FL 10, by way of a four-channel speaker cable. The result of combining the two units is a complete full-range speaker system.

FL18 sub-bass is a bass reflex unit driven by an 18" B&C woofer, together with an internal 600W/RMS class-H power amp. Fifty Line offers an exceptional acoustic sound, in an extremely flexible and compact system, according to dB Technologies. As a full-range setup, FL 10/FL 15 is suitable for smaller productions and speech applications. With the addition of the FL 18 sub, it can be used for rock/disco applications.
