Adamson Features Ultra Compact Metrix Line Source Series

The Adamson Metrix Multi-Purpose Line Source Series is an effective and economical choice for small to medium permanent installations in houses of worship, theatres and nightclubs, as well for the main system in smaller touring applications.

For large format touring, the Metrix Series is a solid solution for front fill, lip fill or out fill arrays. Despite its small package, the Metrix cabinets produce output levels required in today’s concert environments. The ultra compact line-source enclosures are the newest members of the SpekTrix family; featuring both a 5° vertical (Metrix) pattern, and a 15° vertical (Metrix Wave) pattern, by 120° horizontal pattern.

A newly designed Adamson ND8-ML 8.5” Kevlar neodymium mid-low frequency driver is optimized for the 2-way enclosure, and is paired with a 1.4” HF (3 inch diaphragm) compression driver, mounted on Adamson’s patented HF wave-shaping chamber.

A dual 15”, convertible cardioid sub, is flyable within the same array or behind the main array when trim heights are limited.

The Metrix Series is available in touring (Metrix-t) and installation (Metrix-i) versions. The Metrix-t encompasses Adamson’s AIR (patent pending) rigging system. The Metrix-t enclosure weighs 51 lbs and the Wave-t 53 lbs respectively.

For venues looking for a permanent option, the system can be purchased as the Metrix-i, featuring the brand new EIR (‘Enclosed Installation Rigging’) system designed for the economically concerned customer, looking for a high-end sound system. The Metrix–i weighs only 41lbs and the Wave-i comes in slightly higher at 43 lbs.
