1. The CTA 208 Mid/High Unit
Fig. 1: CTA 208
Design and Construction
The CTA 208 Mid/High unit‘s top and bottom
panels slope at an angle of 4.5°. Water-repellent,
black PU lacquer coats the enclosure made of 18mm, 13-ply birch plywood. Your choices of array
curving angles (or splay) are 0° and 9°. The baffle
board cover consists of a metal grille; found behind
it are two CD horns equipped with acoustical lens
for the four 1" drivers.
The CTA 208 weighs 29 kg. It is 51 cm wide, 52.5
cm high and 34.6 cm deep (including rigging
attachments). Two grips on the side panels simplify
transport and set-up.
Fully integrated rigging attachments comprising
three quick-release pins and three rigging
connectors, two mounted on the sides and one in
the rear, serve to fly the mid/high units.
Electrical and Acoustical Data
The CTA 208 enclosure features two 8" cone chassis
speakers and four 1" B&C high frequency drivers
with a front-mounted acoustical lens in a CD horn
configuration. An internal passive crossover with a
crossover frequency of 2 kHz addresses the drivers
via a special acoustic lens. The CTA 208 enclosure‘s
nominal electrical power-handling is 500 watts
RMS at 8 ohms impedance. It produces 105 dB
(1W@1m) sound pressure, measured under halfspace conditions. Maximum SPL measured under
the same conditions at one meter is 134 dB at 10%
THD. The CDR 108 radiates at a horizontal angle of
100°. Frequency response ranges from 95 Hz to 19
kHz (±3 dB).
1.1 Specifications, CTA 208
A professional two-way system featuring cylindrical
wave technology, this cabinet serves to set up
vertical line arrays and project a coherent wavefront
across the entire frequency range. The precisiontuned enclosure sports two 8" midrange speakers.
Four 1" high-frequency drivers address two constant
directivity horns with 100° horizontal directivity via
a special acoustic lens. Vertical directivity depends
on the number of CT A 208s in use.
The housing is made of 15/18-mm birch plywood
coated with black PU varnish. Its fully integrated
rigging hardware adjusts to two 0° and 9° angles
for setting up line arrays. An integrated pole mount
offers two tilt angles of 3° and 11°. An impactresistant steel grille covers the front.

ConTour Array™ 1.0
C. Rigging ConTour Array™ Enclosures
1. Components and Applications of
ConTour Array™ Rigging Hardware
Please also read the Notes on Rigging Safety in Chapter A of this manual.
Fig. 5: Integrated rigging attachments
Fig. 6: ConTour Array™ rigging frame
Fig. 7: Shackles for attaching motors, chain hoists
ConTour Array™ rigging hardware consists of the
following parts:
• a rigging frame with two shackles for attaching
motors or chain hoists.
• integrated rigging points on the side and back for
flying ConTour Array™ CTA 208 Mid/High units.
• three quick-release pins per CTA 208 for
connecting the enclosure to the rigging frame.
Important note on pins: Quick-release pins connect
rigging hardware and speaker enclosures, and their
proper function must be tested and verified. Pins
must always engage fully in the (fitted) hole. Under
no circumstances may these pins release on their
own when subjected to tractional forces. The nib in
the center of the pinhead must always be depressed
to insert pins; it releases the ball detents in front.
Once the pin engages in the hole, the nib must ease
back to its initial position.
1.1 Mounting the Rigging Frame
It takes two people to perform these tasks. Remove
the quick-release pins from the enclosure. Set the
rigging frame on the enclosure. First attach the two
front connectors. Turn the rigging frame‘s connector
component down and slide it into the rear rigging
connector.
Insert the rear pin through the hole labeled 0°.
Attach to the rigging frame the shackle that accepts
the motor hook. Your choice of pick point depends
on how sharply you aim to curve the array later.
Tip: If you intend to rig additional enclosures, we
recommend that you attach all the required speaker
cords to the rigging frame now because this task
becomes more difficult as the array grows higher.
Be sure to use cords of sufficient length!
1.2 Setting the DualCurve™ Angle
Curve the two CTA 208 cabinets using the rear
connector component. You have two angles to
choose from, 0° and 9°. Remove the pin on the rear,
insert lead the connector into the rigging track and
secure the connector component with the pin as
pictured.
Hoist the mounted CTA 208 Mid/High cabinets to a
height that allows you to roll a second case holding
two enclosures under the array. Remove the two
front pins from the enclosure you wish to mount.
Move the second case with two additional CTA 208s
into position. Slowly lower the top two cabinets
until the two front connectors engage. Insert the
two front pins first, ensuring they engage fully and
securely (see Figure 12 a). You may have to shift
the two enclosures slightly to ease the pins into
position. To attach the rear connector component,
you must swivel it out of the track and ensure it
faces down (see Figure 12 b). Insert the pin through
the hole labeled 0° or 9° as required.
Note: Depending on application, you may not be
able to select a pick point with a shackle. In this
case, use two shackles and a suitable O-ring as
shown in Figure 10.
Check all pins on the top rigging frame to ensure
they seat firmly. Attach the motor to the shackle.
Important: Ensure the motor‘s chain bag hangs
freely and does not rest on the rigging frame!
Engage the motor to lift the cabinet from the case.
Roll the case off to the side. Remove the two front
pins from the enclosure you wish to mount and fold
down its connector component. Now you can rig
further cabinets.
Hoist the array consisting of four CTA 208
enclosures high enough to remove it fully from the
case. Secure the hoisted array against blasts of wind
or unintentional twisting to prevent it from moving.
Fig. 12 a, b: ConTour Array™ ground-stack connectors
Depending on application, use two or three
ConTour Array™ subwoofers as the stack‘s base. Set
the desired number of subwoofers on top of one
another.
Caution:
Secure the ground stack to prevent it from tipping!
Use the M10 bushings on the back of the CTA 118
subwoofer and the ground-stack connectors to do
this.
Mount mid/high units individually, one after
another, on the top CTA 118 Sub. Use the ConTour
Array™ stack plate as the base and connector to
the subwoofer. Attach it to the CTA 118 Sub’s pole
mount using the M20 thumb screw. The stack plate
lets you easily adjust mid/high units without having
to move the subwoofer. On this stack plate, you can
freely select the desired down-tilt between 0° and 9°
in 1.5° increments.
Connect no more than two CTA 118 Subs to one
mains phase (16 A). If you use the Powercon Link
port, connect no more than one further CTA 118
Sub. The 13-A limit on maximum input current (see
label) applies to Great Britain because UK power
cables are approved to 13 A only. 16-A current is
permissible in other countries using EU power
cables.
Caution: If you must power the CTA 118 Sub with a
generator, ensure the generator is running before
you switch the system on. Never switch systems
off and on with the help of the generator! This can
damage the PWM power amps’ switching power
supply!
Note: The Powercon Link is not available for 100120-volt units.
