Next-proaudio has unveiled the LA210x, a medium-format three-way, coaxial, active line array element designed to support a wide range of mid-to-large sized touring applications and installations where ease of use, from transportation to installation and rigging, are critical.
Built-in DSP and amplification eliminates the requirement for amplifier racks, long loudspeaker cables and basic system calibration.
Custom made European transducers and a maximally optimised acoustic design provide excellent sound fidelity at very high SPL levels. The LA210x features dual 10-inch (3-inch voice coil) neodymium woofers and a groundbreaking coaxial ring radiator loaded by an exclusively developed OSWG waveguide. This acoustic design delivers exceptional phase coherence and consistent coverage down to 300Hz and accurate transient reproduction.
Onboard DSP comprises a 96kHz, 40-bit SHARC engine, monitored by built-in LCD screen with a preset loading encoder, can be remotely monitored and controlled via Ethernet from a PC. The full-featured PC-software automatically identifies each device and allows simultaneous control of multiple devices through grouping facility. Everything needed to fine-tune the sound of your system is here.
Engineered for both touring and installation the system is driven by a passively cooled 2kW three-way ultra-efficient Ccass-D amplifier module, delivering 1kW for the LF section, 500W for the MF section and 500W for the HF section. Integrated universal mains power supply with PFC provides consistency and optimum performance anywhere in the world.
The three-point rigging system allows for quick and easy system set-up. The LA210X elements are easily connected via two front links. A rear centre link allows the user to define relative splay angles from 1° to 10°. The system will automatically lock to the predefined angles when lifting the array.
