Introduction

The Christie Vive Audio LS1S, LS2S, LS4S, and LS5S Line Source surround speakers are designed for small-to-medium sized auditoriums. They can also be used as screen channel speakers in small auditoriums.

The speakers can be combined with a Christie S115 or S215 subwoofer when surround sound bass management is required, to create a three-way, bi-amplified, full range system.

The speakers contain an internal passive crossover, allowing them to operate without the need for a speaker processor or electronic crossover. Hardware attachment points on each speaker allow for multiple installation options.
