Dual 12-inch subwoofer designed for most demanding concert and installation audio professionals, the WideLine-8 system sets new standards for astonishing acoustical performance and compact size. Line arrays are increasingly employed in wider range of venues and applications. Frequently these venues have height or sightline restrictions that limit the placement and size of the array. Rising fuel costs are putting pressure on touring system providers to downsize their transportation requirements. At the same time, client and audience expectations for audio performance has never been higher. Each tri-amplified WideLine-8 element uses pair of high-power, neodymium magnet, 8-inch low-frequency drivers. Both cover low frequencies while only one extends into midrange, thus maintaining horizontal dispersion control at crossover. High frequencies are handled by premium, 3-inch diaphragm, neodymium compression driver mounted to QSC's patented, 140° multiple aperture diffraction waveguide. WideLine signature wide coverage delivers a broader stereo image, reduces the need for supplemental fill speakers and allows more placement options. The waveguide exit extends nearly to the top and bottom of the enclosure to create continuous acoustical source with minimal discontinuities between adjacent elements resulting in greatly reduced destructive interaction. The WideLine-8 sub sets new benchmark for extraordinary acoustic output from a miniscule enclosure. At first glance, the enclosure seems too small to even house its pair of 4-inch voice-coil, long-excursion 12-inch woofers, yet it produces 135dB (peak) SPL and has LF extension to 32Hz, with the punch needed for popular music. The extremely low profile of WL212-sw sub (less than 15-inch) also makes it great choice for installed and portable use under stage or in other tight quarters. The 4th order bandpass design matches width of the WideLine-8 elements allowing it to be flown inline with or behind a WideLine-8 array. Premium materials are used throughout the system. The enclosure is constructed of baltic birch plywood and coated in an environmentally friendly, waterborne polymer finish that is field repairable. To keep the weight to minimum and prevent rust, suspension fittings are made of aluminum. An elegantly simple 4-point suspension system combined with lightweight, compact size and excellent handling ergonomics mean that one person crew can easily deploy an array.
