Redline™. Engineered for professionals. Engineered for you.
From the very outset, Redline was designed for you, the live audio professional.
From corporate events to festivals, every aspect of the design has been targeted
at making your life easier. From enclosure handling and tments to acoustical and
electronic components, Redline is built to live as you do: with demanding clients,
tight schedules and even tighter budgets.
Corporate class Your world is hotel ballrooms, tents and exhibition halls. Redline
sets up fast, requires little or no tuning, sounds spectacular and looks as good as it
sounds. Your crew will love Redline because they know it’s there. Your clients will
love Redline because they don’t.
Robust reinforcement Outdoor stages, pavilions, auditoria and festivals are your
livelihood. Redline is exible enough to serve as mains, lls, and monitors, allowing
you to bring one system and cover them all.
Intelligent installations Your business lives in clubs, houses of worship, theaters
and auditoria. Installs simply, sounds fantastic and works forever. Period.

Extreme performance.
In a results-driven world, professionals rely on the rock solid, high performance
tools that deliver – show after show.
Every Redline system contains highly-customized precision transducers that have
been engineered to meet the specic demands of the Redline family. RL12 and
RL15 oer perfectly consistent directivity via Beamwidth-Matched Crossovers1 on
90x60° user-rotatable horns. Painstakingly-engineered 4-aperture elliptical ports
provide huge bass support with no turbulence, while maximizing transducercooling air ow for utmost reliability.
Brilliant electronics.
Each Redline system includes a complete electronics module with processing
and 1,250 watts (1,000W for LF, 250W for HF) of Class-D Power Factor Corrected
amplication. Redline features renowned EAW Focusing™2 processing to pristinely
deliver the impulse response of a studio monitor and the impact of a freight train.
Sophisticated DynO™ algorithms optimize the power transfer from ampliers to
transducers to audience to optimize headroom and integrity of sound at
maximum output.
Three simple pre-dened voicing options help you get ready in minutes while
sounding like you’ve tuned for hours. Push-button cardioid functionality (using two
or more RL18S subwoofers) keeps low-frequency energy o the stage and on the
audience. And a rear-panel LED mute keeps Redline invisible in aestheticallysensitive situations.

Beamwidth-Matched Crossovers Introduced over a decade ago for our MK series loudspeakers,
EAW Engineers use carefully-designed HF horns and crossovers to eliminate polar irregularities
through the crossover point.

Focusing Use of advanced digital signal processing to perfect the impulse response of a
loudspeaker in the time domain. Eliminating horn “honk” and splashiness, this makes the
loudspeaker sound more like a studio monitor than a “PA” speaker.

Road-ready enclosure.
With roots deeply entrenched in touring, EAW knows how to design enclosures
for live sound reinforcement. Incorporating symmetrical monitor angles to form
left-right wedge pairs, integral road glove-ready wood handles for portability, and
sleek but strong sculpted grilles on a RoadCoat™ enclosure that can take a beating
without showing it, Redline is meant to be used. And used. And used some more.
RL18S enclosure depth is optimized so that, with one subwoofer rotated,
a cardioid pattern can be generated in seconds with two button presses.
