General Description:

The Electro-Voice Variplex Matinee is designed to
provide perfect coverage, wide bandwidth, and
extended dynamic range in today’s Cinemas. It uses
second-generation asymmetric directed coverage to
uniformly cover every seat in stadium or traditional
theaters. This design greatly reduces energy wasted by
focusing it on the audience, not walls and ceiling where
it can be reflected to degrade clarity. Ring-Mode
Decoupling (RMDtm) incorporated into the transducers
improves system transient detail that further refines
system sound quality. The Variplex M’s 3-way design
allows each frequency range’s transducers to be
optimized for low distortion, high power handling, and
smooth frequency response. Two high power 8-inch
midrange transducers clearly and accurately reproduce
dialog, music and effects in detail. A 2 inch diameter
compression driver with titanium diaphragm delivers
high level response past 18 kHz. Careful attention to
crossover and waveguide design further enhances
coverage and response. Variplex’s asymmetric
coverage simplifies aiming by directing energy uniformly
from front to rear. Variplex’s asymmetric coverage
directs energy for uniform coverage from front to rear,
simply placing the aiming axis at the row two thirds from
the front provides each seat exceptional sound. The
easily adjustable bracket provides aiming versatility for
difficult installations. The Variplex M can be used in
passive mode using a single amplifier channel, or in
biamp mode. The Matinee product line includes
subwoofers and surrounds speakers that provide
excellent performance to match the screen system.
