The Opera Series, an Accessible Benchmark in Modern Sound Reinforcement
Designed to deliver clear and powerful sound without complexity, dBTechnologies' "Opera" series has established itself as a reliable choice for musicians, DJs, and professionals demanding a high-performance portable speaker. The Opera 10 sits at the heart of this range with a versatile 10-inch format, easy to transport and capable of reaching a high SPL level while maintaining a balanced timbre.
For Whom and For What Uses?
Ideal for small to medium gigs, rehearsals, bars, conferences, or DJ sets, the Opera 10 excels both as a front-of-house speaker and as a stage wedge. Its lightweight design and pole-mount capability make it practical for quick-deploy events, while its built-in presets facilitate adaptation to vocals, instruments, or music playback.
Acoustic and Electronic Design Serving Clarity
The asymmetric directivity horn optimizes vertical dispersion and horizontal projection so every listener benefits from a consistent spectrum. Advanced digital processing, based on linear phase FIR filters, stabilizes the response and improves mix intelligibility even at high volumes. Class D bi-amplification delivers clean and controlled power, with Peak, RMS, and thermal limiters for effective protection under real conditions. Finally, the dual input and selectable XLR output (CH1 Link or Mix) simplify small setups without a mixer.
