The WideLine features an open, natural sound quality and exceptionally wide 140° horizontal coverage pattern - the widest of any line array system currently available.
The WideLine's 16 ohm per transducer low-frequency impedance optimizes allocation of amplifier channels. In biamp mode the LF/MF sections of up to four enclosures can be powered by one amplifier channel operating into a two-ohm load. In triamp mode the LF and MF sections of up to eight enclosures can be powered by a single two-channel amplifier.
The enclosure of the WL2102-w (pictured) is constructed of industry standard birch plywood resulting in a slight increase in weight; 83 lbs/37.7 kg vs. 70 lbs/31.8 kg for the WL2102, at a substantial cost savings for more price sensitive applications where the ultra lightweight and extreme weather resistance of the cored composite enclosure are not required. The mechanical design allows composite and plywood enclosures to be arrayed together.
Wideline features a unique 3-point suspension system allowing construction of arrays of up to 24 enclosures (5:1 design factor). A 12 enclosure hang will maintain a 10:1 design factor which may be dictated by local regulations and practices. Vertical splay angles between adjacent enclosures are adjustable in one-degree increments from zero to ten degrees. All hardware required to construct an array is permanently attached to the enclosure; there are no loose parts to misplace.
