‘It’s important to us to provide integrators, production teams and rental partners with a complete solution and the right tools to do their jobs,’ says Wharfedale Pro Applications & Solutions Manager, Alex Lane. ‘Introducing this new range of accessories underlines our commitment to these values, and we hope existing fans of our WLA series will enjoy the new additions and new clients will have yet another reason to choose Wharfedale Pro for their projects.’
Dolly boards specifically designed for Wharfedale Pro’s WLA 1, WLA 2 and WLA 312X line array units are included in the new range, including those to fit the WLA 1 and WLA 2 subwoofers. All five dolly boards in the range are crafted from high-quality birch plywood and come with castors and metal accessories, allowing loudspeakers to be transported in a vertical arrangement. All are finished in Wharfedale Pro’s characteristic Tough-Tone paint.
Two dolly frames are also available. Suitable for use with WLA 2 loudspeakers and subwoofers, the dolly frames offer an additional option for easy transportation, while also facilitating safe and secure ground stacking or flying of line arrays.
‘Our WLA accessories are created in response to the common challenges production and rental companies face when transporting heavy audio equipment,’ Lane says. ‘So many of our valued partners around the world asked us for these accessories so, we listened and delivered.’
