INTRODUCTION

The Crossover

This unique Low Impedance Compen-

sated Crossover (LICC) design places

inductors in series with the woofer whose

values are markedly lower than conven-

tional designs. This reduces the amount of

energy that is typically wasted as heat and

increases the amount of energy that is

transformed into real acoustic power. It also

incorporates dynamic protection for the

compression driver from non-linear signals.

The Cabinet

The C200 cabinet was designed to be the

strongest molded composite cabinet on the

planet. This material is as strong as con-

crete, and rigid enough to prevent

unwanted vibrations and standing waves in

the cabinet. It has built-in fly points for

hanging, and a socket in the bottom for

mounting on a tripod stand. Although it is

an exceptional choice for installed sound

situations, its light weight and durable fin-

ish also make it ideal for portable sound

system use. The asymmetrical trapezoidal

design of the cabinet also makes it easy to

use as a floor wedge for stage monitor appli-

cations.

The C200 offers a portable, lightweight

solution for a variety of high-powered

sound reinforcement applications.

Thank you for choosing the Mackie C200

sound reinforcement loudspeakers.

The C200 is a portable two-way loud-

speaker system, specifically designed to

complement our PPM Series line of profes-

sional powered mixers. They are capable of

extremely high sound pressure levels, and

designed to give you the best performance of

any portable compact loudspeaker in its

class and price range.

The Transducers

The C200 features a 10-inch high-power

low-frequency woofer and a 1.4-inch tita-

nium diaphragm high-output compression

driver. The woofer incorporates technology

used in large-format touring systems and,

with a precision 2-inch voice coil, is virtu-

ally indestructible.

The high-frequency compression driver

is mounted on an acoustically non-resonant

exponential waveguide, providing a wide,

controlled dispersion pattern and precise re-

production of the critical upper mid-range

and high-frequencies. The result is an unbe-

lievably smooth off-axis response that allows

everyone in the audience to experience the

same high-resolution audio no matter

where they are seated.

Each driver has been specifically designed

by our engineers for optimum performance

in a lightweight high-strength cabinet.
