Description
Ideal for houses of worship and other smaller public address applications, the Samson dB300a two-way, portable active loudspeaker system delivers bi-amped, high-efficiency, 300 Watts RMS of power. The dB300a features a balanced microphone and line level inputs, XLR output and two band EQ.
The dB300a's rugged speaker cabinet is molded from high-impact polypropylene, and like its larger cousin, the dB500a, features an array of mounting options. Designed with versatility in mind, it can be easily stacked or permanently installed. The design of the dB300a also makes it usable as 30 or 45 degree floor monitors as well.
The dB300a speaker system by Samson takes the concept of powered PA systems to a new level. By combining 300 watts of super clean power, advanced active processing and the highest quality speaker and cabinet components, the dB300a provides studio quality sound for any kind of live sound reinforcement application. The loudspeaker features a super heavy-duty, custom designed, 12-inch low frequency driver and a 1.75 inch titanium diaphragm high frequency driver on a 1" throat, wide dispersion horn. The dB300a offers crystal-clear audio and an ultra-wide sound field. The top end is clear, sweet and articulate. The low-end is enormous. The dB300a is powered by a Class H amplifier that pumps 250 Watts to the low frequency driver and a Class AB amp that provides 50 Watts to the high frequency section—more than enough power to fill any large club. The efficient Class H amplifier design provides the power to deliver transient spikes with incredible punch and sonic purity.
The dB300a goes beyond concert-quality to studio-quality thanks to Samson’s exclusive Optimax processing. Optimax processing uses sophisticated circuitry to compress and limit output at ideal levels. This allows the dB300a to provide huge volume levels without sacrificing low end. The dB300a offers a practical back-panel, mixer-like preamp section that provides mic and line inputs with individual input level controls. Controls for the selectable low pass filter and extension output selection are also included. The trapezoidal shape of the speaker cabinet offers more than just superior acoustics, not only is it a front-firing PA speaker, the dB300a’s are also designed to operate as wedge-style monitors. Adding to the dB300a’s practical design is a catalog of mounting options.
With the dB300a, setup and break down is quick and easy. The compact cabinet can be easily stacked, using the built-in stacking bumpers or stand mounted using the integral 1 3/8" pole mount receptacle. For permanent installations, the enclosures can be fixed to a wall or ceiling using the optional MB300U U-bracket mounting kit. The dB300a can also be suspended using the four built-in fly points and fixed in arrays using the MB300A array kit. If you are traveling to different venues with your loudspeaker system, the heavy-grade steel grill, scuff-resistant textured finish and rigid corners offer excellent protection against wear and tear on the road. As fixed sound reinforcement or as a durable, great-sounding road PA, the dB300a active monitor is ideal for sound professionals and performers looking for serious power and studio monitor sound quality from a PA speaker system.
