Application Notes
Flying Redline from threaded mounting points
Redline attachment points are designed to accept M8 hardware. Always use a minimum of two
points to suspend any loudspeaker. See section on “Rigging” later in this manual for more
information.
Arraying RL12 and RL15
Redline loudspeakers can be arrayed in various ways. However, arraying loudspeakers requires
special consideration for the overall array’s mounting angle, projection pattern, rigging/mounting
method, and for system tuning adjustments. These issues can be significantly more complex than
when the loudspeakers are used individually. The recommendations in this section may not be
suitable for particular applications or for the desired sonic results. For assistance in configuring
Redline in an array, contact EAW’s Application Support Group.
Vertical Array
1.
Non-Rotated Horn (90° horizontal
coverage): Use a 90° splay between
enclosure sides.
2.
Rotated Horn (60° horizontal
coverage): Use a 60° splay between
enclosure sides.
If a different splay angle is needed for proper coverage, we suggest spacing the cabinets several
feet apart, creating an exploded array to reduce comb filtering at critical frequencies.
Horizontal Array
1.
Rotated Horn (90° horizontal coverage): Orient
the enclosures so the LF drivers are adjacent
(i.e. enclosure bottom to bottom).
2.
Use a 45° splay between the enclosure
bottoms.
As with vertical arrays, if a different splay angle is needed for proper coverage, we suggest spacing
the cabinets several feet apart, creating an exploded array to reduce comb filtering at critical
frequencies.
