1 SOUND IS FRONT AND CENTER WITH MS34 MONO+STEREO AT AES NY 2019
Intended for use primarily as a fill speaker, the MS34 from 1 SOUND (www.1-sound.com) is anything but a typical fill speaker. The MS34 is a two-channel point source loudspeaker that preserves a true mono signal for a solid image while also providing the listener with a spacious stereo image — all from the same compact enclosure. I’m not sure what’s going on under the hood of the MS34, but the demo was stunning. When the MS34 was switched to stereo, I was looking for the “man behind the curtain” with the extra speakers that were creating the stereo image — but of course none were to be found. This very interesting technology deserves a good look and listen. For more on the company, see “Company 411,” FOH Nov. 2019, page 52.
