    SW-118M or SW-218V/EB subwoofers and is designed to integrate smoothly and easily with other Tecnare products. While CLa208 can be used as a main system, individual CLa208 cabinets work well for under-balcony coverage and frontfill. Also, Cla208 is an excellent downfill or sidefill complement to a CLa21 or CLa312 main system for tours playing a variety of venues.

    1.4.2 Amplification To power Array Series, Tecnare recommends amplifiers with the power ratings enough to feed the loudspeakers. For high power or live applications, it is recommended to oversize the amplifiers relative to the nominal AES output of the subwoofers.
  • Page 11 In certain specific cases it is possible to slightly under-power the subs or loudspeakers as long as the amplifier will not be driven to its limits. In any case, the Tecnare processors should be deployed in front of the amp to ensure that the amplifiers to not go into clip.
  • Page 12: Loudspeaker Configuration

    Operation Manual Loudspeaker Configuration The CLa208 loudspeaker employs a combination of drivers to enable you to optimiza both coverage and directivity in a CLa208 line source system. Deployed as stand alone line source, the CLa208 system can be operate over the nominal bandwidth of the CLa208 enclosure 62 Hz- 18KHz.

    CLa208 loudspeaker array. Tecnare SW118M, SW218V or SW218EB can achieve frequency response down to 30 to 45 Hz range, extending the low-end bandwidth. Preset for DP-Series processor and T-Series amplifier are available for different configuration and applications.

    Tecnare loudspeaker controllers. ® Tecnare only recommends using preset/amplifier developed by Tecnare, otherwise there is a risk of damaging the loudspeaker components. DP Series Loudspeaker Controller, PA Series amplifier and T-Series amplifier are ideal for this purpose. Ensure that the right preset was selected before connecting the loudspeaker with the amplifier.

    Integrating SW-118M subwoofer with CLa208 Curvilinear Array Loudspeaker A CLa208 array can be deployed in combination witn Tecnare SW-118M subwoofer in applications were LF reinforcement is needed. When fitted with rigging hardware, SW-118M subwoofers may either be ground stacked, flown as part of a CLa208 array, or flown separately alongside a CLa208 array, to boost the system’s low-frequency output and headroom.

    Configuration For other configuration, it will usually be necessary to determine the signal delay setting by measurement. When loudspeaker and subwoofers are physically separated by more than 1,2m (4feet), or delay ® must be used between them, a measurement system such as SMAART should be used to determine the correct delay and polarity.
