Electro-Voice MB 200 B - U-shaped wall/ceiling lyre bracket and suspension for SX Series speakers

The Electro-Voice MB 200 B is a professional black lyre or U-shaped bracket designed for wall or ceiling mounting and for the secure suspension/flying of SX Series cabinets. It is part of the Electro-Voice “System 200” installation system and is supplied as a kit with hardware and friction pads. Its architecture captures the cabinet in a rigid frame with structural anchor points, allowing for tilt orientation of up to 60° and the suspension of one or two loudspeakers vertically when following the manufacturer’s guidelines. It is compatible with the SX300 and SB122 models as per official specification, and is widely used with the SX100/SB121 in the System 200 ecosystem. Additionally, it can create horizontal arrays of 2 to 6 cabinets in combination with the MB-300 kit, providing great versatility for fixed installations in auditoriums, educational establishments, places of worship, hospitality and retail.
