    The following graphics will assist in making a rough estimate as to the distance range of the CA 1001. The graphics only take into consideration the sum of the direct sound and not the influence of the room. Because of this there can, in some cases, be noticeable deviation.
  • Page 11: Arrayed Speaker Systems (Cluster)

    *If several 90° systems are clustered, unwanted interference effects may appear. As a result, we do not generally recommend clustered configurations of CA 1001 systems. If wide angles are to be covered, we recommend the use of several systems with ro- tated horns in one cluster.
