The AX800A NEO is a compact lightweight powered line array element that combines superior sound quality with flexibility and ease of use in an organically styled moulded enclosure. It is designed for a wide range of general purpose indoor and outdoor live sound applications and many types of fixed installations. To fully extend low frequency response the AX800A NEO is designed to be used with the SW1800A subwoofer, a compact dual 18”  hybrid manifolded bandpass design, in a recommended 4:1 ratio.

The AX800A NEO offers a simple but innovative approach to the design of line array elements. The simple concept of the WTW symmetrical drive unit configuration is effectively implemented in order to minimize the effects of potential beaming phenomena arising from the woofers around the crossover frequency.

The orientation and precise separation of the woofers also minimizes interference effects between them, while the use of a mechanical-acoustic polyurethane filter further reduces midrange beaming.

The crossover filter approach is based on a “Constant Power” technique. Thanks to a particular phase combination between the two ways around the crossover frequency, this approach is able to provide a very stable horizontal coverage and a very stable off-axis sound image, also minimizing unwanted effects around the crossover frequency. The further application of phase linearization techniques, combined to constant power crossover, yield a linear phase response and a coherent time response. This allows for a natural perception of acoustic instruments and voices, and for improved depth of the sound image.

RIGGING HARDWARE

The AX800A NEO provides built-in flying hardware as an integral part of the cabinet, offering fast and intuitive rigging from a single flypoint in mobile or fixed applications, together with excellent load-bearing capacity. It consists of a front suspension system constructed from two aluminium fast link structures, which are connected at the top to the KPTAX800 or KPTAX800L flybars with quick release rigging pins, and at the bottom to the next cabinet with quick release rigging pins. The KPTAX800 and KPTAX800L  flybars can support respectively a column of up to 4 or 12 cabinets using a single pickup point. Inter-cabinet angles are set by means of the rear cabinet links in increments of 0.5° from 0° to 7.5°. Using the KPAX8 pole adapter up to 2 cabinets can be installed on a speaker pole.
