KEY FEATURES

• High-Output Coaxial Active Stage Monitor
• Single magnet neodymium motor
• Dual taper angle monitor configuration (45° or 55°)
• Very compact size Low-profile design
• Dual-angle pole holder for multipurpose applications

INTRODUCTION

The CX14A is a coaxial stage monitor designed specifically for live sound,
although the very compact, low-profile enclosure also makes it suitable for
theatre and television applications.
The combination of a high-performance coaxial transducer, a carefully designed
cabinet, and powerful Class D amplifier together with CORE DSP processing
provides very high SPL before feedback and excellent intelligibility even at very
high power.
The unique 14" LF transducer's coaxial design offers a very stable acoustical
pattern over 80° in both the horizontal and vertical axes. The high frequency
range is reproduced by a low-distortion compression driver equipped with a 3"
aluminium voice coil and polyester/titanium diaphragm. The special shape of the
LF cone allows precise and controlled conical dispersion of 80°.
The reduced size and weight of the birch plywood cabinet makes the CX14A
one of the most compact and lightweight stage monitors in its category. The 45°
and 55° angled sides enable it to be positioned at differing distances from the
performers depending on the stage size and type of monitoring needed.
A convenient dual-angle pole holder allows the CX14A to be mounted on a
standard speaker stand to be used as a multipurpose front of house loudspeaker.

  • Page 3 LOW CUT This PRESET is the same as NORMAL WEDGE but with a low cut at 110 Hz 48 dB/oct. To be selected when a CX14A is used in combination with a subwoofer to form a DRUM FILL or a SIDE FILL system. It can be used also in case you need to cut drastically the monitor LF response.
  • Page 4 POWER AMPLIFIERS Powering the loudspeaker drivers is a well-proven DA series Class D amplifier module used in many of the Axiom powered loudspeaker products, with audio quality that is comparable to some of the best analogue Class A-B designs, but with the benefit of lower weight and better than 90% efficiency.

  • Page 6 EDITING USER PRESETS If you connect the CX14A stage monitor to a PC, using PRONET AX Control Software you can edit the user presets. Here below a typical stage setup of a band using 8 CX14A wedges from a monitor engineer point of view: Setup - Device Name: here you can assign a unique name at the unit (twelve characters are available).
  • Page 7 PEQ - EQ1-5: 5-band full parametric EQ. Note: CX14A is already optimized for the best performance for wedge monitoring, so we suggest to make only small adjustments to adjust the response for particular enviroments or instrument mic’ing. PRESET: you can store or recall preset in the device’s memory or load and save presets in your computer HD as *.pcf files.
  • Page 8 LIMITED WARRANTY Proel warrants all materials, workmanship and proper operation of this product for a period of two years from the original date of purchase. If any defects are found in the materials or workmanship or if the product fails to function properly during the applicable warranty period, the owner should inform about these defects the dealer or the distributor, providing receipt or invoice of date of purchase and defect detailed description.
