The Blackline H3T is a very high performance, all-horn, three-way system in a single, wide-bandwidth package.
The Hybrid™ low frequency section comprises a horn-loaded 15” (380mm) / 4” (100mm) voice coil driver that
is reflex loaded to extend the LF output to below the natural horn cut-off point. The 10” (250mm) mid-horn
features a unique ‘phase-ball’ loading device and is teamed with a 70º x 40º horn-loaded 1” (25mm) exit
compression driver for efficient mid-HF performance. The system has a switchable passive 2kHz mid-HF
crossover network to permit bi-amp/tri-amp operation.
The H3T is housed in a trapezoidal birch ply cabinet and may be horizontally arrayed for wide coverage
applications. Its twelve M10 inserts make a variety of mounting methods possible including horizontal or vertical
mounting. Generous handles and rear castors are fitted for easy cabinet deployment.
