Key Features
• Twelve 2.25" (64 mm) drivers mounted in a vertical line array deliver
wide horizontal coverage with narrow vertical pattern control
• Modular design allows stacking of multiple enclosures in a line
array configuration to provide increased vertical pattern control which
improves “throw” distance and reduces unwanted floor/ceiling reflections
• 145° horizontal x 20° nominal coverage for a single module.
Vertical coverage varies with number of modules stacked in line array
configuration
• Mid/high configuration allows bass management and design flexibility.
Use with Bose MB4, MB12, or MB24 modular bass loudspeakers for fullrange
reinforcement
• Optional brackets allow easy installation of single-, double- or triplestack
line array modules
Product Overview
The Bose® Panaray® MA12 is a mid/high-frequency modular line array loudspeaker designed to provide outstanding vocal intelligibility in

Footnotes:
1 Frequency response and range measured on-axis with recommended active EQ in an anechoic environment.
2 Vertical coverage varies by number of modules vertically arrayed and distance from line-source boundary. Use Modeler® software for the best prediction.
3 Power handling tested using pink noise filtered to meet IEC 268-5, 6 dB crest factor, 100 hours, with recommended EQ.
4 Sensitivity measured in free field (no boundary-loading gain) with recommended active EQ, referenced to 1W/1m.
5 Maximum SPL calculated from sensitivity and power handling specifications, exclusive of power compression.
