QSC WL2082i Installation Line Array System (Discontinued)

Description

Details

Line array systems have become the primary loudspeaker configuration for tour sound and many large installations. With the advent of the WideLine WL2082-i Installation Line Array (ILA), QSC offers a professional system at breakthrough pricing making line array performance accessible to a far broader range of house of worship and performance venues. Most line array systems currently available are designed for touring applications. As a result, the overall system cost is driven beyond the means of many facilities that could benefit from line array acoustic performance. By focusing on installation applications, using a molded enclosure and simplifying the rigging design, QSC was able to drive cost out of the system while retaining the sound quality, coverage and power of high end touring systems.

Each Installation Line Array element uses a pair of high-power, neodymium magnet, 8" diameter low frequency drivers in a two-and-a-half way configuration. Both woofers produce low frequencies but only one covers the midrange resulting in more uniform directivity in the crossover region. For high frequencies, a pair of 1.75" (voice-coil diameter) neodymium compression drivers with titanium domes are mounted on a patented* multiple aperture diffraction waveguide that provides extremely wide coverage (140°). As a result, a WL2082-i system will rarely require additional side or center fill speakers and solid stereo imaging is preserved across the listening area.

The system may be used in bi-amplified or tri-amplified mode. In general, the tri-amplified mode will produce the best performance and, for arrays larger than four boxes, will not increase the total cost of system amplification.
