The i218-M is Clair Brothers mobile large
format innovation in line array technology.
Built for large environments where maximum
output (145dB max) and coverage are
required. It incorporates an all new approach
in modular midrange and high frequency
technology, providing excellent controlled
directivity. The centrally located mid/high
modules provide 90° horizontal by 10° vertical
coverage and are symmetrically flanked by
the i218-M low frequency sections. Each
18 in. low frequency driver is front loaded in
independent tuned vented chambers.

The i208-M has one of the most versatile, quick and easy to use rigging systems in the industry today. Each enclosure is equipped with structurally integrated bimodal rigging to allow for quick coverage angle adjustments for multiple venue arrangements. Rear rigging hardware allows for angle adjustments between 0 and 10 degrees at 0, 2.5, 5, 7.5 or 10 degree increments.

As with all Clair Brothers products, the i208-M is constructed of the finest Baltic birch plywood and finished with a rugged exterior epoxy to withstand the most demanding conditions.

The speaker grille is constructed of high-grade 14 gauge perforated steel and finished with a commercial grade powder coat finish.
