General Description:

The Electro-Voice ® Xi-1153A/64F is a full-bandwidth, three-
way, triamp system is designed for medium- to long-throw
applications. The orientation of LF section and the mid-
bass horn create a two-element line array that extends
vertical pattern control to below 350 Hz. Using VBS (Vertical
Beam Shaping) technology this benefit can be increased
by another 20° to 40° of pattern control above 300 Hz. VBS
uses filters to overlap the LF section bandpass with mid-
bass bandpass. By carefully phase matching the acoustic
response in the overlap region the vertical pattern control is
dramatically improved. Frequency response on-axis is
unaffected, while gain before feedback is increased by 10
to 15 dB for microphones located under the loudspeaker.
Its high-frequency horn/driver section is rotatable to provide
proper coverage for vertical or horizontal system
installations. The low-frequency section is powered by a
15-inch driver (EVX-155) in a slot-loaded, closed box
configuration suitable for moderately high sound pressure
levels. When very high levels are desired we suggest
augmenting with the Xi-1191A. For maximum low-frequency
performance, combine in a four-way configuration. The
DL12ST 12-inch, application-specific mid-bass driver
features RMD™ and a 60° x 40° horn. The ND6-16 high-
frequency driver/horn combination is fully "shrouded" to
preserve midbass wave-front detail.
