The Martin Audio W8LCDI is a compact, wide dispersion,
vertically arrayable enclosure designed for the fixed installation
market. It can be used individually and in small quantities for short
to medium throw (up to 40 metres) applications as well as a
downfill element for the W8LCI. Its 20º vertical dispersion requires
fewer cabinets to cover the same area as a conventional line array
element, yet it still benefits from the smooth, predictable coverage
of a vertically coupled system.
