Shuttlesound is focussing its high-end product display on compact line array, featuring flown hangs from three different ranges, the XLC, XLD and XLE. The well-established XLC design has recently been given a major boost in the shape of the DVX upgrade, incorporating new EV 12" low-frequency/mid-bass woofers into the XLC127 cabinets, giving greater high-SPL stability and full-bandwidth intelligibility than previously available.
EV's smaller XLD systems are also capable of producing concert SPL levels on full bandwidth in small to medium sized venues. And the ultra-compact XLE systems are suitable for critical audio requirements where overall cluster size is the highest priority. Both systems are well suited for many types of live and install applications.
For the live sound professional who is not looking for line array solutions, EV's portable Phoenix system offers "tremendous SPL and sonic headroom, as well as ease of transport and set-up".
Phoenix marks the first full deployment of 18, 15 and 12" new DVX woofers across an entire EV line. Each cabinet also features two of the company's latest ND2 neodymium 2" HF compression drivers. Two basic Phoenix systems are available: one based around the PX2122 dual 12" two-way with 30x45° dispersion, the other around the PX2152 dual 15" two-way with 60x45° dispersion. Each is used with the PX2181, a tour-quality, dual 18" subwoofer.
