QSC Audio WideLine Array Speaker System User Manual


 
The cabinet also contains a single 1.4-inch
exit, 3-inch diaphragm, 16 ohm neodymi-
um high frequency compression driver
capable of handling 80 watts. The hardware
design incorporates all components neces-
sary for easy to use box-to-box rigging. The
WideLine’s internal mid-range frequency
shading can be switched to either of the two
woofers. Both drivers handle the low fre-
quencies, but only one driver handles the
mids, this is said to create a smoother pat-
tern control at the mid-high crossover. The
selectable frequency-shading circuit
enables an operator to redirect mid-bass
build up without touching the EQ, for
improved intelligibility in an otherwise
problematic frequency range. A switch
allows the sound engineer to orient the
enclosure’s low frequency pattern for use as
either house left or right, without the need
to flip boxes. The modular design allows
for the quick connection and rigging of the
cabinets into an array. The frequency
response is stated to be 55 Hz to 18 kHz and
a sensitivity of 97 dB. The dimensions of
the cabinet are 10.75 inches H x 27.5 inch-
es W x 20.25 inches D.
