portable line array system
Key Features
•High-performing, powered, portable two-way loudspeaker system with a 195° H x 0° V nominal dispersion designed for the production and reproduction of live music, music playback, speeches and A/V sound reproduction
•24-driver articulated line array loudspeaker technology produces wide, uniform sound coverage throughout the entire listening area— even off to the extreme sides
•Consistent front-to-back coverage, 24 drivers mounted in a vertical line array produce little drop in sound pressure level per doubling in distance than a conventional point source
•Retractable folding leg mechanism for easy transport
•Lightweight, interlocking components
•Expandable bass design supports the use of multiple B1 bass modules or a single B2 bass module
•Digital Ethercon port provides single-wire connectivity for the T1 ToneMatch audio engine
