Called the SIGMA Series, it features new custom speaker components as well as the latest generat ion DSPs and digital power amps.
Engineered for portability
Musicians and DJs who provide their own backline need a reliable sound system that sets up in a flash and is easily tweaked without a lot of fuss. It has
to respond directly and predictably to every mix. Live acts need resilient speakers w ith lots of load handling capacity and the staying power necessary to
operate at high levels for hours on end. The rig has to deliver tight, punchy bass response that gets people dancing as well as assertive mids and a sparkling
top end. And it has to be easy to handle. The SIGMA line does all this and more.
H.E.T™ Housing
Exceptionally light and remarkably rugged Developed by dBTechnologies, H.E.T (Hypr id Enclose Technology) housings are made of premium quality multiply
wood with a hardwearing, durable, and scratch-resistant coating. Tough, rugged plast ic side panels provide excellent protection for the housing as well as
integrated grips and electr ical connectors for utmost handling convenience and safety.
Digital processing for professional sound through and through
The integrated digital sound processor allows the final touches to be made to your sound, rounding it out to a warm, natural tone with powerful bass and
sparkling high frequencies. A variety of signal processing presets allows you to achieve your perfect sound w ith the minimum of fuss. All in all, the SIGMA
series is a fully integrated range of produc ts for professional use, setting a new standard in the field of live amplification and quite unique amongst its
competitors.
digipro G2® More power to your power amp — from a world leader in technology
dBTechnologies leads the way in the field of digital amplification. Our fully integrated digipro® G2 modules were developed specifically for use in very
compact active systems, based on the innovative technology designed for our digipro® G2 power amps and used in our high- end DVA and DV X ser ies
products, which set new standards for performance from such a compact package. The digipro® G2 power amp modules are rated at more than 90%
efficient, as only digital amplification can be. That means that they have no need of built-in fans and are extremely reliable and stable in operation.
Moreover, digipro® G2 ‘s components are protected by our tried and tested built-in limiters, and our carefully designed c ircuitry ensures that the output
remains even and transparent — the most important qualities for maximum listening pleasure — even in noisy environments.

OPERA DX
dBTechnologies has added another chapter to the celebrated Opera Series’ 12-year success story: Welcome to the new Opera DX line. Our engineers have
again succeeded in treating users to state-of-the-art features and functions unrivalled in this price range. The digipro® G2 digital power amps, DSPs and
asymmetrical horns have been tuned to deliver peerless performance. And with that, the three Opera DX 500, 700, and 900 lines provide a tailored solution
for every sound reinforcement application.
The secret to the extraordinary performance of products bearing the dBTechnologies brand is the custom design effort that went into each component.
These units outperform their rivals because almost every component was developed from the bottom up for the given product.
All components in an OPERA system are manufactured in our plants or sourced from trusted suppliers that we have relied on for many years, with dBTechnologies’ quality assurance experts rigorously monitoring the production process. Final assembly takes place at our home base in Bologna, Italy, where we
burn in speakers and put every enclosure to the test for several hours before it ships.
®
This painstaking attention to detail has made the OPERA series one of the most successful and most frequently copied speaker systems. dBTechnologies
leverages leading-edge technologies and proven manufacturing processes to continue making – in Italy rather than offshore - quality products that deliver
unmatched performance for the price.

Multi-Purpose
If you need several loudspeakers, you can drive as many OPERA 110 MOBILES as you like from
only one transmitter, within the possible range of the transmitter. The range of the transmitter is
between 70 and 100 m, heavily dependent on the environment. For longer distances the optional
directional antenna set RDA 950 should be used for better operating reliability. With this, distances
well above 100 m can be achieved. If the audio signal, as well as a microphone signal, applied to
the first unit (e.g. CD) is to be sent to other OPERA 110 MOBILES, this can be achieved with the MS
110 set.
The optional RMS 110 master - slave set contains a directional antenna with integral transmitter
for transmitting the complete audio signal from the first unit to other OPERA 110 MOBILES using
a second carrier frequency. For simple connection there is both a low volt output w ith adjustable
voltage between 3 - 12 volts and a mix output for 6.3 mm jack available.
