  • Page 13: System Design

    Venu V2 loudspeakers can be arrayed as a single pair facing forward to provide a wide stereo image. Figure 6.1: Venu V2 Series loudspeakers single pair arrangement For applications requiring wide horizontal coverage, use two Venu V2 Series loudspeakers in pairs, angled at about 40°.

  • Page 14: High Frequency Loudspeaker Placement

    This is the most desirable position for the loudspeakers in this example. Figure 6.5: Correct loudspeaker placement Venu V2 Series User Guide V1.0 Page 14...
  • Page 15 Figure 6.6: Multi point loudspeaker arrangement In the horizontal plane rotate the Venu V2 Series loudspeakers toward the audience area at an angle such that the centre line of the dispersion from each loudspeaker meets about two thirds of the way towards the rear of the audience area.
  • Page 16 6 System design Avoid directing the Venu V2 Series loudspeaker straight forward. This will result in a proportion of the power being directed towards the walls, creating possible reflective issues, as well as causing a gap in coverage at the centre of the audience area.

  • Page 17: Typical Operating Modes For Low

    Although the modes of arrangement shown here are typical operating modes for low frequency enclosures, the Venu V2 Series low frequency enclosures design lends itself to wide range of configurations. Simple planer arrays and stacks to directional and steerable arrays are possible given suitable electronics and presets.

  • Page 19: Asymmetrical Waveguide Orientation

    Due to the asymmetrical nature of the high frequency waveguide it must be orientated correctly. The narrow end of the waveguide creates the wider dispersion and should always be facing down as shown in the figure below.
