XLE181
2-Wa y, High-Output,
Very Compact
Line-Array Element
General Description:
The XLE181 is a 2 –way using a single 8" neodymium LF
transducer and two neodymium 2" voice coil compression
drivers combining through 2 hydra® plane wave generators
into a 120° x 10° waveguide. The XLE181 can be used in biamp or full-range modes using a sophisticated internal
passive network. Designed for use in arrays of four or more
elements. The XLE181 delivers full bandwidth audio with
precise, predictable coverage control. Integrated rigging with
hinge points located correctly between array elements is
simple to use and quickly provides uncompromised line
array performance. Groundstacking is easily done by using
EV’s XGS-4 Groundstack Kit for XLVC.
The XLVC family consists of two full-range systems with
dual woofers, two full-range systems with single woofers
and a subwoofer system. The dual-woofer versions include
the XLD281 with a 120° horizontal coverage pattern and the
XLD291 with a 90° horizontal coverage pattern. The singlewoofer versions include the XLE181 with a 120° horizontal
coverage pattern and the XLE191 with a 90° horizontal
coverage pattern. The subwoofer module is the XS212. Most
applications using flown very compact elements require
subwoofers integrated into the same array as the full range
systems. The XS212 sub woofer arrays can be created and
flown behind the XLE181 full range array using an additional
grid and EV’s CBEAM (Coupler Beam). LAPS modeling
software quickly provides array configurations and rigging
information.
