The Renkus-Heinz IC2 (IC Squared) live sound loudspeaker ‘combines the control and flexibility of Iconyx digitally steerable technology with the power and focus of a point-source loudspeaker, creating the world's first crossover array’.
Promising the benefits of both technologies, IC2 gets its first showing at the Plasa show in London. It features four 8-inch low-frequency Neodymium transducers and 1-inch Titanium Nitride coated HF drivers for high SPL point-source performance, with individual steering control of each driver for vertical pattern control of up to four beams. Each IC2 two-way 8-inch module delivers ‘articulate musicality and powerful punch’, with a versatile design that can be used as a stand-alone high-performance loudspeaker, a small ground-stack or a flown array of up to 20 cabinets.
Also new is the Modular Point Source Array series, which includes the self-powered CF101-LA and passive CFX101-LA systems. Designed for power, portability and versatility, the line is intended for small and mid-sized venues, including auditoria, night clubs, theaters and houses of worship.
With the flexibility to be flown, ground-stacked or pole-mounted, the CF/CFX101-LA delivers the performance and pattern control of a line array, with the clarity of a point-source system, in a compact and affordable design that is effective as a portable system or a permanent installation. Up to four CF/CFX101-LA cabinets can be arrayed to provide a 90°x60° coverage pattern, delivering up to 9dB higher output and tighter vertical pattern control than a conventional single cabinet. Traditional line arrays require two or three times as many cabinets to provide the same range of coverage.
