WLA-121SUB

The science behind the new WLA-1 Hybrid Curvature Array is intense.  

With 12” and 15” full-range elements and a breath-taking 21” subwoofer, the new WLA-1 system has been 

engineered by IAG’s International R&D team to be highly versatile - making it perfect for touring and fixed 

installations.

The drivers inside are very special. Designed and Engineered by Wharfedale Pro UK and manufactured in 

Europe by Beyma, the full-range WLA-112 and WLA-115 elements use a coaxial design in combination with 

the exclusive incredible EVO-Fold high frequency waveguide. This design provides consistent dispersion 

coverage on both the horizontal and vertical planes with the sound radiating from one, singular and 

coherent, source.  Together with the dedicated FIR pre-sets library a flatter phase front is granted allowing 

outstanding audio quality performance.

 

This highly engineered solution combats issues that traditional constant curvature two way systems suffer 

from due to physical spacing between the drive units.

Meanwhile, the WLA-121SUB uses a 21” Beyma driver with a 4.0” Quattro voice coil which results in the 

most extreme, but controllable flying subwoofer in the Wharfedale Pro line up.

The WLA-1 system can easily be configured in 3 different ways.  As a sub-top pole mount, as a flown array 

with the optional Common Fly Frame, or as a Horizontal system with the optional WLA-1 Link hardware.  

Such versatility allows for users to deploy the system for multiple activities.

WLA-1 is a unique Hybrid Curvature Array.  The science behind its development has been intense, but this 

extreme engineering results in an extra-ordinary system with massive lows, consistent coverage and 

phase coherence.
