This time in Real World Gear we look at the big guns - large format line arrays, those with 12-inch and larger woofers. Line arrays are modular, multi-way enclosures arrayed in vertical columns, with their cabinet’s geometry optimized to provide full-frequency transducer coupling from one enclosure to the next along the height of the array. This is achieved at lower frequencies with cone transducers forming a column from one cabinet to the next, at frequencies where the distance between their…

Meyer Sound has introduced the JM-1P arrayable loudspeaker, a self-powered high-Q system designed to integrate seamlessly in tight-packed clusters where horizontal coverage must be predictably scaled to exacting requirements. Distinguished by its precisely defined 20-degree horizontal by 60-degree vertical pattern, the JM-1P delivers controlled coverage while minimizing reverberation in large or reflective acoustical environments. With a consistent polar response and trapezoidal enclosure patented by Meyer Sound, the JM-1P delivers optimum performance in tight-packed arrays providing horizontal coverage that is proportional…

AT 2009 InfoComm in Orlando, Fulcrum Acoustic debuted the CX/DX family of loudspeakers, the first of the TQ Install Series. Eight different products, all based on coaxial designs, provide 90- x 45-degree or 60- x 45-degree horn patterns and 12-inch or 15-inch woofers. A newly designed coaxial transducer/horn assembly, along with TQ processing, alleviates the problems previously associated with coaxial approaches. For example, the CX1595 is a coaxial loudspeaker that packs the output capability of a non-coaxial 15 inch, horn-loaded-HF…
