with a range of Martin Audio sub-woofers including the Martin Audio W8LS direct
radiating sub-woofer system or the Martin Audio WLX horn-loaded & ported
(Hybrid
tm
) sub-woofer system. See Section 5.7.
W8L, W8LC and W8LM systems combine patentable driver loading techniques -
researched and proven by Martin Audio over many years - with no-compromise
vertically-coupled waveguides and true constant directivity horns to achieve a level of
efficiency and coverage consistency not usually found in this popular format. W8L
Series horns develop low curvature vertical wavefronts for smooth, comb-free
coupling at practical vertical splay angles. A feature not possible with spaced, point-
source drivers.
W8L Midrange section
Wavefront W8L Series line arrays feature integral, quick deployment flyware systems
which allow progressive curvature columns of up to 16 cabinets to be assembled. By
hinging at the front rather than the rear, the rigging system minimises gaps between
the acoustic elements which would otherwise interfere with the line array effect.
Viewed from the side, W8L Series enclosures are trapezoidal in shape with 3.75º wall
angles to allow arrays of varying curvature to be constructed. A series of inter-cabinet
splay angles from 0º to 7.5º are selected by links at the rear of the enclosure. The 7.5º
maximum splay angle allows tight curvature at the bottom of the array, obviating the
need for dedicated down-fill systems. All hardware is integral and captive.
