Carvin's new LSx (Live Sound) Series loudspeakers give new mean-
ing to high performance loudspeaker systems for today's club scene.
Building upon the company's long-standing reputation for state-of-the-
art systems offering great sonic performance coupled with proven reli-
ability and solid value, the new LSx Series loudspeakers deliver all the
features musicians and mobile DJs demand.
Consisting of ten models encompassing five 2-way systems, three
3-way systems, and two subwoofer systems, the LSx Series is ideally
suited to address a wide range of sound reinforcement system require-
ments—from intimate clubs to large scale, high impact music venues.
With key features like steel grills to protect the drivers, recessed steel
handles for easy transport, high order – low loss biampable crossovers
that ensure high intelligibility of spoken word and accurate reproduction
of music sources, plus Neutrik Speakon™ and quarter-inch connectors
across all models, Carvin's new LSx Series loudspeakers are just what
your audience has been waiting for!
Going one step further, all LSx Series loudspeaker enclosures utilize
multi-layered, cross grain laminated plywood construction. Why is this
important? Unlike other materials, plywood construction results in rigid
enclosure walls that reduce flex and sonic coloration caused by cabinet
resonance, with the added benefit of a structurally more robust enclosure
designed to handle the rigors of the road. Finished with great-looking,
rugged Duratex™ sprayed on coverings, Carvin's new LSx Series loud-
speakers look every bit as compelling as they sound!

LiMiteD WaRRanty

Parts and labor are covered for 3 years on manufacturer's defects.
Warranty does not cover burned out drivers caused by excessive power
or distortion, or physical damage caused by general use, moisture or
dust. CAUTION: Square wave distortion from power amps can destroy
drivers much faster than clean RMS power. The power generated by
the APS internal power amps has the capacity to damage the drivers, in
which case they would not be covered under warranty.
