HistorySound Projects was founded as Master Blaster in 1983 and is presently responsible for the total design and worldwide marketing of Sound Projects soundreinforcement systems of modular design. The name Master Blaster has gradually been abandoned and replaced by SOUND PROJECTS. Presently thousands of SOUND PROJECTS products are used all over the world and imported into several countries in Europe, Asia and America.
1986: Introduction of the MASTER BLASTER CONCEPT
As the first company in the world to do so, Sound Projects (at that time trading as Master Blaster) introduced a professional self-powered loudspeaker system with seperate mid-high and bass modules. This "twin-bin" approach allowed easy stacking/rigging for auditoriums ranging from intimate nightclubs to large outdoor arenas.
1991: Presentation of the GRAND TOUR
In the footsteps of the concept came the Grand Tour; ultimate fidelity, slim and extremely powerful. With fully integrated individual power amplifiers per speaker, and control/protection electronics in the heart of the system. The Grand Tour was the first set equipped with η-max? technology.With the presentation of the Grand Tour in 1991 the company once again deviates from the traditional technical approach. New ergonomic and acoustic considerations are added. New materials like polyurethane foams and lightweight multilayer plywood, as well as proprietary aluminum extrusion are introduced. In spite of the built-in electronics the Grand Tour therefore weighs less and has smaller dimensions than most competing and equivalent products.
1994: The arrival of the PERSONAL MONITOR
Early 1994 the Personal Monitor is introduced, a lightweight cabinet build around a wide dispersion waveguide that loads the 12-inch and 1-inch driver.Like the Grand Tour the waveguide of the PM is specially designed to vastly improve the radiation pattern of the used speaker combination, by matching the two drivers precisely, both in terms of frequency response and directivity. Due to improved directivity control the system is less sensitive to differing acoustic circumstances and room effects. Because of the improved loading of the driver, the waveguide reduces diaphragm excursion whilst increasing the component efficiency and thereby the maximum soundpressure. The succes of the Personal Monitor has been consolidated with an upgraded grey carpeted version, equiped with a fullrange/lowpass switch making it useable as a as is or with a sublow.
