7 System design

7.1 System design principles

Incubus Series loudspeakers can be arrayed as a single pair facing forward to provide a wide 
stereo image. 

For permanent installation, it is recommended to fly the Air Array loudspeakers for more even 
coverage. This also allows co-located low frequency enclosures in a single block, increasing 
sensitivity and providing more consistent bass coverage.
