Point Source Array Modules

7
The modular point source nature of VARIAi lends itself to building custom coverage patterns to match room geometries. In this fashion, simple arrays
such as the one shown below are straightforward. The MPS connector is the only connector needed and are provided with each loudspeaker.
Each connector includes four 1/4” shackle pic points that can used to directly connect suspension hardware to the array.
This ‘SHACKLE’ mode has some limitations
1. No more than 5 enclosures.
2. Subwoofers are not included in the array.
3. No more than 150lbs loaded on any one shackle point.
4. Connectors can only accept pull forces in plane with the steel. No rotations or outward bridles.
NOTE: The RHANG frame does not have these limitations.
For larger arrays and where rigging requirements include bridles or odd angles, the RHANG frame is required. When utilized properly, arrays of up to
2000lbs can be assembled with both the standard and WR versions.
RHANG—The RHANG frame connects directly to any of the VARIAi enclosures in the same
manner all other connectors (M8 bolts). Once connected, rigging hard-ware can be used to
connect to any of the eight 15/16” holes in the frame. Us-ing four pic points, the frame is rated
to safely suspend arrays of up to 24 enclosures.
REAR PICK BAR— In addition to the RHANG frame, for pull back conditions that require
bridles or larger rigging hardware than 1/4” shackles, the REAR PICK bar is used and simply
bolts into the center hole on each connector. The REAR PICK bar connects with M8 x 25mm
bolts provided.
