INTRODUCTION
The AX2010A Ver cal Line Array element is designed for a wide range of sound reinforcement applica ons where a fl exible and easy to use ver cal
array systems is needed. The AX2010A has been designed both for rental live sound applica ons and for fi xed installa ons and has been engineered
for the simplest use possible but without sacrifi cing anything in sound
quality and performance.
compression drivers, equipped with very light-weight diaphragms. Two
transmission line waveforming waveguides have been used to load
the HF drivers, in order to provide a detailed and natural sound and to
achieve a long-distance HF projec ng capacity.
The two 10" woofers employed in the reproduc on of the mid-bass
range are equipped with very light-weight cones. The lightness of the
diaphragm is furthermore improved by the use of aluminium voice
coil instead of conven onal copper. This ensure a fast reproduc on of
the mid range and of mid-bass musical passages, improving also the thermal capacity of the voice
coil and, consequently, controlling the overall power compression. The two 10" woofers are back
loaded by a short hybrid transmission line that minimizes the eff ect of the box resonances and eliminates the "boxy" mid-bass sound commonly
obtained from regular bassrefl ex enclosures. The crossover fi lter approach is based on a "Constant Power" technique. Thanks to a par cular phase
combina on between the two ways around the crossover frequency, this approach is able to provide a very stable horizontal coverage and a very
stable off -axys sound image, also minimizing unwanted eff ects around the crossover frequency. The further applica on of phase lineariza on
techniques, combined to constant power crossover, yield a linear phase response and a coherent me response. This allows for a natural percep on
of acous c instruments and voices and for an improved depth of the sound image.

Usually the boxes are arranged to make an arc for the best coverage of the audience, so the center of gravity moves backward.
