It also includes a ground lift switch for eliminating noise issues caused by ground loops, and a HPF EQ switch to help cut through muddy stage mixes. Designed to be adaptable, the FRFR-108 MK2 can be used in a wedge, upright, or pole-mounted position, making it versatile enough to fit any stage or room. Weighing in at 21.05 lbs. / 9.5 kg, the speaker is both rugged and relatively lightweight, making it easy to transport and perfect for road use.
