While building on the guidelines of the FBTMaxX Series, the ProMaxX Series 2-way speakers feature a sophisticated new cabinet design that increases low frequency SPL and virtually eliminates undesired resonance. A new FBT horn design provides improved projection, accuracy and uniform dispersion of the mid high and high frequencies. Two ergonomically placed carrying handles are integrated into the cabinets for easier placement on speaker stands and when transporting.
Along with our new cabinet designs, the ProMaxX Speaker Series with its innovative electronic DSP circuitry and FBT’s latest technological breakthroughs in the development Class D amplification circuitry, “Raises the Bar to New Heights” for lightweight powered speaker systems. Combining this with their ease of use and the
versatility for many portable or installed sound reinforcement applications, the ProMaxX Speakers provide Musicians, DJ’s, Audio / Video Contractors, Sound Reinforcement and Audio Rental Companies with advanced systems of Pro audio reproduction.
The ProMaxX Series consists of 4 powered and 3 passive models. Three Two -way speaker systems in gas-injected polypropylene molded cabinets and a powered sub with a Baltic birch plywood enclosure. ProMaxX 10a / ProMaxX 10: 10” LF woofer +1” HF driver ProMaxX 12a / ProMaxX 12: 12” LF woofer + 1” HF driver
ProMaxX 14a / ProMaxX 14: New 14” LF woofer + 1,4” HF
driver ProMaxX 15Sa Subwoofer: a compact 15” band-pass design subwoofer in a Baltic birch plywood enclosure.

> New sturdy, gas-injected polypropylene
molded enclosures, engineered to contain undesired resonance
> B&C neodymium magnet loudspeakers,
custom made for FBT
> The latest generation of B&C HF
neodymium magnet compression drivers
> FBT’s latest Class D, LF and HF power
amplifiers with high efficiency switch mode power supplies enclosed inside a thermally efficient lightweight aluminum die­cast chassis. This allows for the optimization of the speaker load without the use of fans for cooling
> Proprietary filter algorithms, dynamic
equalization at low frequencies, and advanced energy control allow high SPL while always granting reliable and distortion free audio reproduction
> New and original horn profile provides
extremely accurate and uniform dispersion for the entire frequency radiation angle, not just for the horizontal and vertical plane
> An increase in total SPL thanks to our
new enclosure design, engineered with 4 bass-reflex ports to increase the size of the radiation area, This further enhances low frequency efficiency and performance without a substantial increase in the external dimensions of the cabinets
> Two integrated ergonomically placed
carrying handles, M10 fly points, top-hat speaker stand socket

Instead of rotary EQ controls, FBT’s New Digital Signal Processor with 8 factory equalization presets provides
simple and efficient EQ adjustment. Hundreds of hours of testing in the anechoic chamber in our factory went into the development of these presets to optimize the ProMaxX speakers for use for numerous applications Practically 8 speakers in one! The presets include:
> ORIGINAL: corresponds to the typical FBT
sound for use in general applications
> FLOOR: the ProMaxX immediately becomes
an ideal stage monitor
> VOCAL: provides increased intelligibility and
presence for vocals and speech
> WARM: provides a full bodied response to
the low-mid frequencies and less aggressive on the highs
> HI-END SYSTEM: provides a response
similar to speakers used for touring sound
> FARFIELD: optimized response for listening
distance over 15-20 meters, (48-65-ft,)
> NEARFIELD: optimized response for
listening distance of up to 8 mt (25ft,)
> LOUDNESS: low frequency emphasis /
presense at lower volumes for recorded music playback or disco
Our new unique 14” LF woofer with a 3” voice coil is featured in the ProMaxX 14a, This 14” woofer is housed inside the same enclosure as the ProMaxX 12a, and delivers the performance of a 15” woofer, but at the
size and weight of a 12”!
Two - way cabinets have 3 monitor tapers for use as a floor wedge at 12°, 45°, 55°, providing extraordinary versatility for monitor placement on stage
