dBTechnologies Fifty Line: Premium Portable Speakers

Tuesday, 10 October 2023
The main purpose of the Fifty Line is to be able develop the highest possible SPL levels whilst keeping overall power consumption very low. This is achieved by maximising the radiating real estate of the transducers on-board the Fifty Top.

The Fifty Line is one of dBTechnologies’ most straightforward systems: easy transport options, smooth deployment with scalable options, and an outstanding final result.

Scalable system

The optimal way to deploy the Fifty Line is either to ground stack one or two Fifty Tops on Fifty Subs, or fly the Fifty Tops using the dedicated flybar.

The unique design of the Fifty Top allows up to two units to be vertically coupled seamlessly, in order to double the output capabilities. The waveguide is designed to minimise interferences between two Fifty Tops stacked together: all you need to do is flip one of the two upside down. 

When the venue requires a wider coverage, it’s easy to either fly or ground stack several Fifty Tops side by side, spreading the horizontal dispersion of the PA system to any desired amount.

Flying Fifty Tops is just as easy as stack them: the flybar design fits either one or two-height Tops, without the need to own different adaptors, and the dollies designed for transport are optimised for a smooth setup and tear down of the system. Nevertheless, the on-board rotary encoder provides for several quick-recall presets to adapt the system to basic applications.

Remote control

The Fifty Line also features complete network capability via Aurora Net control software which allows EQ, delay and processing customisation and real time monitoring of the PA system in use.

Impressive performance through acoustic innovation

The main purpose of the Fifty Line is to be able develop the highest possible SPL levels whilst keeping overall power consumption very low. This is achieved by maximising the radiating real estate of the transducers on-board the Fifty Top.

Each of the Tops is comprised of 4x 10” woofers and 2 compression drivers, carefully tuned for the utmost fidelity even at very high working loads.

FIR filters on board

In digital audio domain, FIR (Finite Impulse Response) filters operate on frequency response while maintaining a linear phase. dBTechnologies’ R&D tuned the Fifty Line using FIR Filters to optimise the overall system performance with pristine vocal reproduction and a much better high-frequency coherence when two Fifty Tops are paired in head stack mode.

dBTechnologies’ signature voicing is granted by the DSP power embedded in our Class-D 1600W RMS power amplifier, equipped in every Fifty Top.

A mighty companion

To really complete a Fifty Line system in any deployment you’ll need the Fifty Sub.

This cabinet has been designed to perfectly pair with Fifty Tops in ground stacked configurations, sharing the same design, as well as same DSP and Class-D 1600W RMS power amplifier.

dBTechnologies always recommends to stack 1x or 2x Fifty Tops over 2x Fifty Subs for optimal performance.
