HK Audio LINEAR 9 112 XA Multifunctional Speaker - Each - Black

HK Audio LINEAR 9 112 XA Multifunctional Speaker - Each - Black

Optimised horns for perfect dispersion behaviour

The dispersion angle of each speaker’s horn is optimised for its intended use. The 12" LINEAR 9 112 XA speaker offers a dispersion angle of 70° x 50 for medium sound coverage depths. It can be rigged either via the rigging points (steel cables or chains in combination with the AP-8 attachment point) or with the TB-28N tilt bracket.

Powerful and wide – coverage without loss of sound

LINEAR 9 is a great choice for both its mid/high units and its subwoofers, with outstanding low-frequency sound pressure levels. The sound quality that HK Audio is famous for is even impressively maintained right up to the back row of the audience.

Smart

The LINEAR 9 family has a high-performance integrated DSP with additional DSP Out. The DSP not only allows users to access the right presets directly on the speakers, but also to set up larger systems on a Mac or PC using an Ethernet connection and even make adjustments mid-event. The DSP Out also makes it possible to integrate a non-networked speaker and process its signal with the DSP CONTROL software.

Professional equipment

All LINEAR 9 speakers have professional connections for safe and smooth operation in the demanding day-to-day rental business. For example, both the mid/high units and the subwoofers have lockable PowerCon and EtherCon connections. All the speaker chassis and drivers used have been specially developed for HK Audio and come from premier suppliers.

Multifunctional cabinet for an even wider range of applications

Thanks to their cabinet shape with integrated 30° slant, the multifunctional speakers are also suitable for use as transverse stage monitors. Both models offer a preset optimised for use as a monitor, which compensates for the overemphasis of the low frequencies caused by ground coupling. The practical functionality is rounded off by the standard rigging points. The combination of a multifunctional cabinet and practical features allows the XA models to be used not only as stage monitors, but also as the ideal front, side or near-fill addition to a larger setup consisting of the LINEAR 9 210 LTA.
