High-Output MK3 Line Array with FIR Precision and Touring Power
The BASSBOSS MFLA-MK3 is a dual 12" powered line array cabinet built for modern large-format sound reinforcement, featuring 6000W of onboard amplification, long-throw controlled dispersion, and linear-phase response via 96kHz FIR DSP. It delivers full-bandwidth clarity at extreme SPL levels while preserving phase coherence across the array.
The MK3-series amplifier update introduces higher output voltage, universal 90–250V power compatibility, and waterproof connections, ensuring flexible use in global touring and outdoor environments. Optimized power allocation maximizes performance across both LF and HF sections while extending thermal headroom for sustained output.
The MFLA-MK3 uses dual 12" neodymium woofers in a tuned bass-reflex configuration for extended low-mid energy, paired with an advanced 1.4" exit compression driver mounted on a proprietary constant-directivity waveguide. The result is seamless vertical coverage and wide horizontal throw with minimal lobing—ideal for flown arrays in concert venues or stadium applications.
ControlBASS™ integration allows full network-based tuning, including FIR-based phase correction, gain, delay, limiting, and custom preset recall. The cabinet’s trapezoidal shape and precision rigging hardware support consistent array angles for predictable coupling and vertical control at scale.
As a standalone top or integrated line array element, the MFLA-MK3 pairs with high-output subwoofers like the SSP218-MK3 or KRAKEN-MK3 for scalable coverage from clubs to national tours.

Control Modes for the BASSBOSS MFLA-MK3
The MFLA-MK3 features onboard 96kHz DSP with full network access via ControlBASS™ software, enabling real-time adjustment of gain, EQ, delay, polarity, and limiter settings. The DSP supports FIR filtering for linear-phase alignment across multi-cabinet arrays, ensuring coherent summation even with asymmetrical or curved rigging geometries.
Dual etherCON network ports allow pass-through connectivity, streamlining array deployment and simplifying front-of-house access. Factory presets include full-range, bi-amp, and extended HF tilt modes for stacking, flying, or ground-supported configurations.
Polarity inversion and up to 10ms of user-selectable delay provide tools for phase-aligned integration with subwoofer platforms like the SSP218-MK3 or DJ18-MK3. Secure locking power and signal connectors guarantee operational stability in festival and touring use.
How to Deploy in the Field
- Flown Arrays: Use integrated rigging hardware for vertical line-source deployment with precision angle control and consistent coupling.
- Ground-Stacked: Mount on appropriate subwoofer platforms using MFLA-MK3 interlock rigging for scalable vertical coverage without flying points.
- Hybrid Configurations: Combine with top-firing or side-fill cabinets in complex stage designs using DSP-based delay and gain alignment.
- Single-Box Operation: Run as a standalone powered top for mid-sized installs where full array scale is not required.
- Fast Rigging: Tool-free flyware, captive pins, and fixed angle options accelerate load-in/load-out for touring or rentals.
Amplifier Architecture of the BASSBOSS MFLA-MK3
The MFLA-MK3 is driven by a 6000W RMS Class D amplifier module, re-engineered in the MK3 series to deliver higher voltage output and deeper reserves of sustained power. This translates into increased transient response and greater headroom during high-demand performances like vocal-forward concerts, EDM stages, or broadcast-level speech reinforcement.
The amp delivers dedicated power to both LF and HF sections through independent channels with multi-band limiting. This precision routing allows consistent coverage regardless of input content or stacking position within a line array.
All MK3 amps include universal voltage support (90–250V), allowing the MFLA-MK3 to operate globally without reconfiguration. Locking powerCON True1 connectors and waterproof construction ensure stable operation under challenging touring and festival conditions.
Digital Signal Processing in the MFLA-MK3
The MFLA-MK3 leverages BASSBOSS's 96kHz FIR-capable DSP platform for precision tuning and seamless array summation. FIR filters are employed to correct phase anomalies and maintain coherent wavefronts across the full horizontal and vertical coverage area of the array.
ControlBASS™ software provides full network access to all DSP parameters, including factory presets, user banks, delay, gain, EQ, polarity, and multi-stage limiting. This enables precise optimization for venue-specific deployment—whether flown above a stadium crowd or stacked for an indoor church install.
Dual etherCON network ports allow redundant daisy-chaining, minimizing cabling and making front-of-house tuning fast and reliable across large deployments.
