User manual ELECTRO-VOICE XLC BROCHIRE (TOURING)

[. . . ] The formidable EVTM X-LineTM not only provides easy rigging, but also combines EV's legendary sonic clarity and vocal intelligibility with the uniform, predictable coverage that only a superior line array can offer. Now, the same designers have distilled the incredible sound of the X-Line into the new X-Line Compact. [. . . ] This revolutionary system delivers unprecedented performance and amazing flexibility to sound designers and installers everywhere. The applications list goes on and on: large indoor and outdoor spaces, high-ceiling venues, performing arts centers, auditoriums, large houses of worship with wide horizontal coverage requirements, coliseums, sports facilities, gymnasiums. . . anywhere first-quality sound is needed permanently. Cabinets The XLC system is designed for use in groups of four or more cabinets. As with the X-Line, three different cabinets offer maximum flexibility for applications. They are the XLC 127 main cabinet, the XLC 124 down fill cabinet, and the XLC 118 subwoofer. Onstage orientation of high-frequency components further improves stereo imaging and reduces polar lobing in the mid-bass response. Intelligent cabinet design minimizes the distance between drivers from cabinet to cabinet, maintaining true line-array characteristics even in curved-front arrays. Most importantly, the XLC uses EV's revolutionary vertical plane-wave generator to correct high-frequency phase response and make vertical wave-front summing exceptionally coherent. All this adds up to incredible sonic clarity and uniformity, even in hard-to-cover areas. Innovative Rigging The XLC's advanced integrated rigging frame and easy-to-use, custom system hardware make one-person installations a reality. The captive front interlocking system has no separate parts to keep track of and "disappears" into the frame to maintain an uncluttered, attractive appearance.
