Designing an X1i or X2i array

X1i and X2i rigging methods
There are two methods of deploying X1i and X2i line arrays: With a custom frame, or with the
optional Electro-Voice grid and rigging kits. The Electro-Voice grid and rigging kits (sold
separately) are a cost-effective method to suspend smaller, simple arrays quickly. One rigging
kit is needed for each element in the array. Each array requires at least one grid. Larger and
more complex arrays will require a custom frame. Custom frames are not designed or
provided by Electro-Voice and need to be provided by third parties.
Warning!
Qualified professionals must carry out the design, construction, and installation of custom
!
frames, in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. Any hardware used to suspend a
loudspeaker not provided by Electro-Voice is the responsibility of others.
