Fender Fortis F-10BT Powered Loudspeaker

Fender's Fortis F-10BT is an active two-way sound reinforcement

loudspeaker designed to deliver excellent fidelity, features, durability,

and ease of setup and use. Powerful and versatile, it offers a bi-

amplified design, two input channels compatible with multiple signal

sources—including high-quality Bluetooth audio streaming, special

analog audio routing for true stereo pass-through when using two

enclosures, and application-specific EQ switching. Along with user-

friendly rear-panel controls and a comfortably lightweight enclosure,

Fortis F-10BT also offers:

•

10" low-frequency speaker

•

1" titanium horn-loaded high-frequency compression driver

•

Dedicated high- and low-frequency power amplification with

active crossover

•

Universal power for 100V to 240V operation

CHANNEL 1: Balanced line/mic input with combination XLR/

TRS input connector, volume control and "Line/Mic" pushbutton

switch.

CHANNEL 2: Stereo Bluetooth and auxiliary input with volume

control, Bluetooth pairing button and blue status LED, and

3.5mm auxiliary input (interrupts Bluetooth signal when in use).

LOOP AND EXTENSION OUTPUTS: Balanced extension output

(right) with XLR-3M male connector sends signal to opposite

side of stage for stereo sound. Balanced loop output (left) with

XLR-3M male connector duplicates internal mixer output and

sends signal to additional Fortis speakers or subwoofers on same

side of stage. In "Mono" (up) position, "Mono/Stereo" pushbut-

ton switch mixes left and right inputs and provides mono mix to

line output; in "Stereo" (down) position, it routes left channel to

internal amplifier and right channel to line output. Note that Bal-

anced Extension Output (right) follows operation of "Mono/Stereo"

pushbutton switch.

LIMIT LED: Activity indicator for driver/amplifier protection

limiter. Illuminates intermittently when system nears maximum

level; illuminates continuously when in system-protection mode.

FRONT LED SWITCH: Three-position switch configures bi-color

LED on the front of the enclosure to indicate power only ("power"

EQ SWITCH: Three-position switch provides specific EQ profiles,

including mild high-frequency boost for increased sparkle and

chime ("High" position), slight midrange boost for greater voice

clarity ("Mid" position) and flattest speaker response ("Flat" posi-

tion).

LF SWITCH: Three-position EQ switch provides specific low-end

tone shaping. Includes low-frequency boost ideal, for example, for

DJs who want to provide increased bass ("Boost" position); flattest

speaker response ("Flat" position); and built-in high-pass filter that

removes low frequencies such that an external subwoofer can be

added to the system to achieve greater volume with overall bal-

anced response, and also compensate for naturally occuring bass

boost when enclosure is placed on its side and "coupled" to the

floor ("Sub/Mon" position).

H. POWER CORD: Connect to a grounded outlet in accordance with

the voltage and frequency specifications.
