APG, the French manufacturer or high end professional loudspeakers and inventor of
the modular line array, will unveil its full range of subwoofers from the SB Series at
Prolight + Sound 2017 (4-7 April, Frankfurt Messe) on a dedicated stand (Hall 3.1,
stand F32).
Consisting in four models – the SB110, SB112, SB115-M2 and SB118 – the new SB
range provides ultimate flexibility for both rental stagers and integrators. All
subwoofers were engineered using the same acoustic load based on the variation of
band pass design to maximize performance: 300W for the 10′ SB110, 600W for the
12′ SB112, 1000W for the 15′ SB115 and 1400W for the 18′ SB118.
Designed for low to very low frequency reinforcement of small to high power sound
systems, the new SB range from APG stands out with its compactness and sonic
performances in infra bass frequency range. All four models feature excellent
accuracy in low frequency reproduction and impressive precision. The SB110 and
SB112 host a ventilated ferrite cone driver, while the SB115-M2 and SB118 feature
a Neodymium driver.
Visitors will also have the opportunity to see the successful Uniline Compact (UC)
range, which was introduced to an international audience at Prolight + Sound 2016.
The Uniline Compact has since convinced all industry professionals who had the
opportunity to hear the product in action: Dozens of service providers, integrators
and end users from Europe and Asia have been praising the impressive
performances of the new system, which packs incredible punch for its size,
including in the lower ends.
APG’s marketing & business development director Gregory Dapsanse, explains why
the system is so successful with audio professionals: “The Uniline Compact is the
ideal range of speakers for people who are looking for ultimate flexibility in a
compact box. This versatility quickly translates into profitability for rental
companies and competitiveness for integrators.
“When put to the test against other brands with similar speaker size, the UC range
has won a number of comparative shootouts organised by brand agnostic
professionals. Its superiority lies in its bi-amplified three acoustic ways in one hand,
and the horns’ constant directivity.’
In France and Belgium only, APG’s historical market, 15 service providers acquired
the Uniline Compact loudspeakers while five venues have been fitted with them,
with a similar success in Europe and Asia: The level of flexibility of the UC system
is such that it was successfully deployed for an impressive range of projects
including TV shows, concerts and festivals – from jazz to rock and form classical to
world music – as well as corporate, sport and religious events, sound and light
shows, theatre venues, circus, and multipurpose halls.
In order to meet with the growing demand, APG also reinforced its workforce with
three new hires within a year: one R&D engineer and two client support engineers.
