The Martin Audio Wavefront W8LD is a line array downfill enclosure which connects directly to the bottom of a W8L array and covers from the front row out to up to 20m when using two W8LD cabinets. The exceptionally wide 120° horizontal dispersion increases coverage to front row central and off-stage areas, with full pattern control maintained right up to 15kHz. The all-horn design follows the same format as the W8L and continues the extension of the line array at low, mid and high frequencies. www.martin-audio.com overall dimensions technical specifications TYPE Three-way downfill line array element FREQUENCY RESPONSE (5) 55Hz-18kHz ± 3dB DRIVERS 12” (300mm)/4” (100mm) voice coil, neodymium magnet, Hybrid™ bass horn loaded 2 x 6.5” (165mm)/1.5” (37.5mm) coil drivers, horn loaded 3 x 1” (25mm) exit neodymium magnet HF compression drivers, horn loaded RATED POWER (2) LF: 1000W AES, 4000W peak MF: 200W AES, 800W peak HF: 200W AES, 800W peak SENSITIVITY (6) LF: 104.5dB MF: 107dB HF: 113dB MAXIMUM SPL LF: 134.5dB continuous, 140.5dB peak (calculated @ 1m) MF: 130dB continuous, 136dB peak HF: 136dB continuous, 142dB peak NOMINAL IMPEDANCE LF: 8 ohms MF: 8 ohms in UPPER mode, 12 ohms in LOWER mode HF: 6 ohms UPPER mode, 10 ohms in LOWER mode DISPERSION (-6dB) 120º horizontal, 20º vertical CROSSOVER 220Hz, 2.5kHz active ENCLOSURE Vertical trapezoid with 10º wall angle, multi- laminate birch ply construction FINISH Textured black paint PROTECTIVE GRILLE Black perforated steel CONNECTORS 2 x Neutrik NL8 FITTINGS Proprietary rigging system, 4 x bar handles, 8 x interlocking skids DIMENSIONS (W) 1314mm x (H) 490mm x (D) 755mm (inc. wheelboard) (855mm) (W) 51.7ins x (H) 19.3ins x (D) 29.7ins (33.7ins) WEIGHT 95kg (209lbs) touring and theatre
