M2
The M2 is a 2-way active monitor employing two 12" LF drivers in
an airflow optimized bass-reflex cabinet. It contains a 1.4" HF
driver using a compact but extremely strong neodymium magnet
assembly, mounted on a low distortion horn optimized for monitor
applications.
The M2 cabinet is constructed from marine plywood and has an
impact resistant paint finish. The front of the loudspeaker cabinet is
fitted with a rigid metal grill backed with a replaceable acoustically
transparent foam. Two sockets which accept the Z5048 Flying pin
are located on both sides of the cabinet allowing quick and flexible
rigging.
CAUTION! Only operate M2 cabinets with a d&b D12 amplifier in
"2-Way A ctive" and M2 mode or an A 1 mainframe fitted with an
M2 controller module, otherwise there is a risk of damaging the
loudspeaker components.

Connector wiring
The M2 cabinet is fitted with two EP5 connectors (male/female). All
pins are wired in parallel and uses the pin assignments 1/2/3/4
and 5 (Pin 5: SenseDrive - D12 only and in conjunction with 5-wire
cables).
Using one connector as the input, the second connector allows for
direct connection to additional cabinets.
The M2 can be supplied with two CACOM connectors as an option
to drive the M2 cabinet with the d&b A1 mainframe.
