Large-Format Line Arrays

Large-Format Line Arrays

Big jobs and huge installations require sizable systems, and we offer this look at a selection of large-format line arrays, here defined as systems with dual 10-inch (or larger) woofers. In this range, speakers are rarely used as simple pairs and are usually deployed in multiple cabinet arrays, with prices often determined as part of an overall system purchase (typically with subs, amplification, rigging, wiring, dollies, etc.) and as such, single-cabinet pricing becomes less meaningful and is not provided. URL’s for each company are attached; contact the manufacturer for more information.

Touring options include a four-wheel transport cart with covers for one, two or three cabinets. The install version has 16 3/8-inch threaded fly points, and the included amplification and processing package can be ordered in a 2U chassis.
