Five-year Transferable Warranty MVP Series components are guaranteed to be free from defects in materials and workmanship for five years. This warranty is automaticall y transferable to any and all owners during the specified period.

Trapezoidal, carpeted, full-range, portable loudspeaker systems MVPSeries with Thermal-Link™ Protection System Community's MVP speakers provide great value, featuring good looks, low cost, versatility, ease of use, a proprietary solid state protection circuit, and HF compression drivers.

A full line of loudspeakers designed for professional musical performances, the MVP Series fulfill the sound reinforcement needs of vocalists, instrumentalists, DJs and club owners.

Thermal-Link™ High Frequency Driver Protection Every MVP full-range loudspeaker system (MVP25, 28, 35, 36, 37 and 38) employs a unique, thermallycompensated circuit to protect its high frequency compression driver. Call ed the Thermal-Link™ Driver Protection System, this circuit automaticall y adjusts the threshold of its safeguarding mechanisms to compensate for variations in driver temperature. Typicall y, when a driver is operated at high power levels, its temperature increases. The longer it is operated at high power, the hotter it becomes. With the increasing presence of heat, the driver's susceptibility to damage also increases. Equipped with the power to accurately sense changes in the driver's operating Temperature, Thermal-Link™ automaticall y adjusts the threshold of protection across the entire operating spectrum, making that threshold higher or lower as needed to insure that the driver is optimally protected against possible damage. When the protective threshold of the Thermal-Link™ circuit is reached, power to the high frequency driver is attenuated by 6 dB. After input is reduced to a safe level, the circuit automaticall y resets itself and restores full power. The patent-pending Thermal- Link™ protection is solid-state (there are no relay contacts or light bulbs to burn out).

Community's Low-mass High Frequency LM20™ Compression Driver Utilized in all full-range MVP Series products (including monitor systems), Community's new LM20, proprietary compression driver is outfitted with a non-metallic diaphragm to provide increased internal damping, and extremely low levels of distortion. Ferrofluid-cooled to efficiently and quickly dissipate heat, the device additionally employs a low moving mass design which provides extremely accurate transient and high frequency response.

MVP37

The MVP37 is a two-way, full-range loudspeaker system. Outfitted with dual cast frame 15-inch drivers the nclosure’s substantial low-end performance allows the unit to easily provide full-bandwidth sound reinforcement without the use of subwoofers, while its overall height is such that it can effortlessly project over the tops of crowds. Central to the MVP37 is a bass-ported design and a one-piece 90x40 lrge format molded horn section housing Community’s new proprietary LM20™ compression driver.

Just like all he other MVP Series, the MVP37 offers a Thermal-Link™ Driver Protection System automaticall y monitoring high frequency performance. The Thermal-Link circuit is designed to automaticall y adjust to the constantly changing protective threshold unique to a given application based upon driver temperature. Solid-state and self-resetting, this safeguarding network guarantees that each enclosure can remain running at maximum output, without risk of speaker damage. Externally corner protectors, recessed steel handles, rigging oints, rubber feet, a 16-guage steel grille, ¼” and locking connectors are all found on each MVP37 enclosure.
