The system comprises a horn-loaded 15” LF drive unit, a horn-loaded 8” MF drive unit and six 1” compression drivers on a waveguide, creating a horizontal line source which allows X3 enclosures to be packed together to form arrays.
The result is a system designed to offer predictable horizontal coverage in an application, particularly those where high SPL is required. The difference between X3 and other point source systems currently available on the market is the SPL capacity and system headroom, as well as the tightly controlled dispersion, according to the company.
Each X3 should be thought of as a 20-degree “building block” which attach to each other to make up the desired coverage angle: 60 degrees = 3 boxes and so on. Due to the HF manifold, each box adds to the next, creating a line array in the horizontal plane.
EM Acoustics has incorporated a drive unit test system into the X3. A button-push on the rear of the box, powered by an integral 9V battery, gives a visual indication of a malfunction in any of the 8 drive units.
