Description

Designed for use in permanent professional 
installations in churches, theaters, auditoriums, 
gyms and theme parks, the SSE LA is a dual-radius 
curved line array that provides a controlled and 
contoured vertical coverage pattern for improved 
intelligibility in large reverberant spaces. The 
dual-coverage pattern provides a tight 20° vertical 
coverage for the primary long-throw pattern and a 
40° vertical coverage for the secondary short-throw 
pattern. The smooth curves of the SSE LA array 
allows the it to be flown much lower than most “J” 
lines can, increasing the flexibility and utility in 
spaces with low ceilings. Adding to this versatility is 
an attenuation switch for the lower half of the short-
throw pattern that reduces the output so that it does 
not overpower the audience just below and in front 
of the array.

Constructed of premium birch plywood for strength, 
rigidity and light weight, the SSE LA has a perforated 
metal grille covered with cloth for a subdued 
appearance. Built-in Flying Points allow flexibility in 
coverage angles while providing stability.

The SSE LA mid-high curved array is comprised 
of sixteen 2" neodymium speakers with wide 
bandwidth and a very smooth response across their 
operating band. When mated with a companion 
woofer module, the combination provides a clear, 
smooth full-range sound from a flown system. Input 
to the array is via barrier strip screw terminals. An 
optional active crossover with equalization ensures 
smooth, consistent frequency response across the 
operating band.  

Features:

• Dual-radius curve provides long-
  throw and short-throw coverage 
  from one enclosure

• Short-throw pattern attenuation 
  switch for improved flexibility
• 400 W program/800 W peak power 
  handling
• Controlled vertical coverage 
  pattern improves intelligibility in 
  larger spaces
• Increased flexibility of flying 
  height with dual pattern
• Processor-based crossover and 
  EQ for maximum performance
• Flying points incorporated
• Available in black and white 
  painted finishes
