The MONARC MLA6 is a low-profile, axially symmetrical, three-way line array module based on McCauley Sound's MONARC line array technology.

Engineered to deliver high definition, high SPL sound reinforcement for a broad range of applications, including concert / touring sound and mixed-media corporate events, the MONARC MLA6 offers sound designers the ideal tool for creating precision coverage zones of acoustically accurate, tonally superior sound reproduction.

The MONARC MS6 is a high-output, precisely matched companion sub woofer for the MLA6 that can be either flown with the array or conventionally stacked, delivering magnificent precision and punch in the low-frequency bands.

SEAMLESS COVERAGE
All MONARC MLA6 and MLA5 modules feature an InterCell Summation Aperture. Recognizable as the “V” shaped recess in the center of the cell, this technology effectively combines the array’s mid and high-frequency energy output, creating a distortion-free wavefront. Virtually free of lobing and comb-filtering artifacts, output from a MONARC array will remain vertically uniform and continuous, regardless of splay angle.

TIGHT PATTERN CONTROL
Planning coverage has never been easier. MONARC MLA6 modules offer excellent horizontal pattern control, creating completely uniform wavefront that is measurably coherent across the entire usable bandwidth, and exhibits nearly NO drop off out to 90° of the horizontal plane… yet is over -24dB down at 100°. This near-perfect horizontal coverage makes the MONARC family highly predictable and simple to design around.

EFFORTLESS RIGGING
The MONARC MLA6, MLA5 and MS6's Integrated Rigging System requires NO tools, has NO extra pieces to lose and requires NO HAND LIFTING to fly. This system is so efficient and easy to use, that once on deck, a complete MONARC array can be interconnected and raised, by a single person, in under ten minutes!

DISTORTION FREE MIDRANGE
Full range MONARC cells employ proprietary HX32™ Carbon-Honeycomb Nomex Composite cone drivers to substantially improve midrange tonality and clarity. Specifically engineered for the MONARC family of line array, these midrange specialists practically eliminate harmonic distortion and mid-band phase cancellation… delivering the most natural midrange of any large format P.A.

100% COMPATIBLE WITH MONARC MLA5
While the MONARC MLA6 brings forward several advancements to the MONARC family, the MLA6 remains compatible with 2001’s MONARC MLA5. Existing MLA5 owners and new MLA6 owners can still cross-rent and share inventories.. even combine MLA5 and MLA6 in the same array.

LIGHTWEIGHT NEODYMNIUM COMPLEMENT
MONARC cells now feature neodymium complements, which dramatically reduces the per-cell weight of the system. The large-format MLA6 now weighs in at a mere 199lbs, while retaining all the power and punch that the MLA5 was famous for.

HEAVY DUTY TRANSDUCERS
MONARC modules overcome the durability and maintenance issues common to others’ line array designs by implementing high power-handling, high-performance McCauley componentry with features like field-serviceable basket assemblies, multiple-spider suspensions, and extremely heat tolerant Inwound 4” voice coils and more.


VOLUMETRICALLY-LOADED
The MLA6 and MLA5s volumetrically-loaded LF section increases LF efficiency and reduces dependency on sub woofers by extending the usable low frequency response to below 45Hz… reducing and in some applications eliminating the need for sub woofers altogether.

ULTRA-LOW PROFILE
MONARC technology is designed to be ultra-compact and stay out of sight lines. Inch for inch, module, for module, not only do MONARC series systems have measurably superior SPL capabilities and outperform the competition in terms of clarity and intelligibility, but they will do so in far less vertical space.

FLY OR STACK OFF THE SAME HARDWARE
MONARC and M.LINE ultra-lightweight fly bumpers double as the base for groundstacking applications. Also, by attaching a castor accessory, fly-bumpers can be quickly converted into carts, giving operators the ability to castor and transport both individual and pre configured groups.

EXTREME WEATHERPROOFING
MONARC cells are completely weatherproofed, using McCauley’s exclusive PROCOAT™ elastomeric treatment. This finishing process makes MONARC systems practically invulnerable to rain, snow, extreme temperatures, and high-humidity conditions.. and will protect from common road related damage like scrapes and scuffs.
