SPEAKER

FUSSION 3000

■ Mackie’s FUSSION 3000 is a high-output, 3-way, medium-

throw, active speaker system. It features high-precision trans-

ducers combined with application-specifi c amplifi er technol-

ogy that allows this integrated system to generate high output

levels with very low distortion characteristics.

■ FUSSION 3000 transducers include a special, low induc-

tance, double voice-coil 8-inch, horn-loaded (80˚ x 70˚ )

midrange transducer designed to deliver the lowest possible

distortion even at full power. It operates between 500Hz and

2,500Hz, eliminating the placement of a crossover point in the

middle of critical voice frequencies. The result is super-smooth

phase and power response that delivers extraordinary intel-

ligibility at high output levels.

■ A 3-inch titanium diaphragm compression driver, mounted

to an 80˚ x 70˚ horn with a 1.4-inch exit throat, reproduces fre-

quencies above 2,500Hz. Mackie Designs has implemented a

unique “Vacuum Tube” philosophy for amplifi ers designed for

mid and high-frequency reproduction. The FUSSION 3000 fea-

tures two Trans-Fet amplifi ers, one for the midrange driver and

a modifi ed version for the high-frequency compression driver.

Our Trans-Fet technology combines a very simple Class AB

design topology with special transformers fi tted on the ampli-

fi er outputs, that assists in eliminating intermodulation distor-

tion by-products. This type of design emulates the celebrated

warmth and transparency of vacuum tube amps. The result is

clear, and accurate reproduction.

■ The FUSSION 3000 delivers deep, quick bass through the

use of four 12-inch high output woofers. Each 12-inch woofer

handles 350 watts RMS long term. Placing four devices within

the cabinet allows the FUSSION 3000 to produce very deep,

precise reproduction of low frequencies. Using four 12-inch

woofers allows low frequency reproduction to be extremely

“quick” compared to other designs. The low frequency ampli-

fi er module is an excellent example of the effi ciency of active

designs. This amplifi er uses a high-effi ciency, high-current

topology to produce 1500 watts of power from a module the

size of a single sheet of paper.

■ Frequency response of the FUSSION 3000 is linear between

55Hz and 18KHz. The system processor provides complete sys-

tem management of all electronic and acoustic functions includ-

ing electronic active crossover, electronic phase alignment,

electronic time correction, electronic equalization and complete

amplifi er and component protection. Because it is designed to

Architects’ and Engineers’ Specifi cations

The active, 3-way, full-range loudspeaker system shall

incorporate four 12-inch low-frequency (LF) transducers,

one horn-loaded 8-inch mid-frequency (MF) transducer and

a 1.4-inch exit, 3-inch titanium diaphragm, compression

driver high-frequency (HF) transducer. The LF drivers shall be

mounted in a vented, multi-ply birch wood enclosure, tuned

for optimum low-frequency response. The MF transducer

shall be sealed from the rear and loaded on a one-piece horn

assembly providing optimum compression ratio and disper-

sion characteristics. The HF transducer shall be mounted on

an aluminum, constant-directivity horn. The system shall pro-

vide a nominal coverage pattern of 80˚ (horizontal) x 70˚ (ver-

tical). System frequency response shall vary no more than

±3dB from 60Hz to 18kHz measured on axis. The loudspeaker

shall incorporate a low-frequency amplifi er, capable of deliv-

ering 1500 watts over a frequency range of 20Hz to 500Hz.

The system shall incorporate a 300-watt amplifi er specifi cally

designed to power the MF driver over the range of 500Hz

to 2.5kHz and a 150-watt amplifi er specifi cally designed to

power the high-

frequency driver over the range of 2.5kHz to 20kHz. The

amplifi ers shall be mounted on an aluminum heat sink

installed within the cabinet. The loudspeaker enclosure shall

have a trapezoidal shape and shall incorporate four side han-

dles along with hanging and rigging hardware. The system

will include a control panel with XLR input connector and an

XLR loop-through signal connector, a high-pass or full-range

mode selection switch, a sub-out XLR connector providing

low-pass audio and control signal for subwoofer systems, a

“Fill-Out” XLR connector with level and phase controls, and

power and protection mode LED indicators. The front of the

loudspeaker shall be covered with a powder-coated, weather-

resistant perforated steel grille.

The active 3-way full-range loudspeaker system shall be

deliver very high output levels (133dB peak-full range) and

wide dispersion, the system can only be line-arrayed with

other FUSSION 3000 cabinets. The system’s wide dispersion

characteristics do not allow it to be used in large arrays.

■ FUSSION 3000 is the fi rst professional speaker system

to create a completely ideal union between transducers

and amplifi ers. To ensure long-term reliability and perfor-

mance, the amplifi er cards and processor are mounted to a

huge heat sink eliminating the need for fans, dramatically

extending life expectancy and eliminating maintenance

cycles. An easily-accessible rear input and control panel

offers substantial signal routing fl exibility. All audio connec-

tions are via XLR connectors, including a main input with a

loop-through output for connection to other enclosures.A

Full Range/High Pass switch allows the FUSSION 3000 to

be operated full range or above 85Hz only. A SUB-OUT con-

nector allows simple connection to the Fussion 1800AS/

1800S active subwoofer system. The SUB-OUT signal is

low-passed below 85Hz and also contains the limiting and

protection circuitry for the active subs. For sound reinforce-

ment situations where “fi ll” speakers are needed, there is a

Fill-Out connector with level and (0˚–180˚) phase controls.

Mackie’s FUSSION 3000 can run on 115V AC or 230V AC

single phase. The system features soft-start circuitry that

eliminates “pops” and precisely controls AC in-rush current

surges.
