KEY FEATURES
• High output line array element
• Compact size, very good output-to-weight ra o
• High quality, low compression, low distor on HF driver
• Very stable horizontal coverage
INTRODUCTION
The AX2065A 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 AX2065A has been designed both for rental live sound applica ons and for fi xed installa ons and has been engineered
and eliminates the "boxy" mid-bass sound commonly obtained from regular bassrefl ex enclosures.
The AX2065A is processed by 40bit, 96kHz fl oa ng point CORE DSP and powered by DA SERIES digital
power modules, a new genera on of CLASS D power amplifi er with digitally-controlled SMPS. The
DA module employed for powering the AX2065A delivers in an ultra-compact package a maximum
power of 2000W and each AX2065A is able to power an addi onal passive AX2065P module through
the available power output on the back panel. This feature will allows to assemble very compe
hybrid solu ons both for rental and installa on applica ons.

AX2065A
ac ve ver cal array loudspeaker
for the simplest use possible but without sacrifi cing anything in sound quality and performance.
The high frequency range is reproduced by a low-distor on compression driver, equipped with very light-weight
Titanium diaphragms and a special new suspension design for
very natural sound. A transmission line wave-forming waveguide
has been used to load the HF driver, in order to provide a detailed
and natural sound and to achieve a long-distance HF projec ng
capacity.
The two 6.5" woofers are back loaded by a short hybrid
transmission line that minimizes the eff ect of the box resonances
