Funktion One Launches Modular Stadium Technology at ISE

	Funktion One Modular Staduim Technology horm

Funktion One introduced the MST (Modular Stadium Technology) horns at ISE. The MST is a series of large format loudspeaker horns which, due to their size, deliver excellent low frequency dispersion control (not usually encountered). In acoustically challenging environments such as arenas and stadia, sound can be focused where it's needed, without unnecessarily exciting the reverberant space. This control, combined with Funktion One's latest 10" cone midrange device, presents a unique loudspeaker for large sound reinforcement applications with ultra-low distortion and exceptional pattern control, according to the company. This technology allows for clear message transmission and intimate, intelligible, and involving sound.

MST horns made their maiden outing on the official music boats of the Flotilla for the Queen's Diamond Jubilee last year. They performed to a very specific requirement of focusing the sound in a "stripe" that passed down the river with the individual boats (see the URL below for more information).

In late 2012, their Russian distributor, Edelweiss Audio, announced Funktion One was selected for their design submission for the Russian 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi. MST systems are currently deployed in the ice hockey arena and extensive bob sleigh site in Sochi -- both challenging environments. These two main systems employ a total of 55 x MST horns with numerous smaller speakers for peripheral areas. Both bob sleigh and ice arena systems are full music entertainment systems in addition to their role providing clear announcements and commentary.
