RLA/1 from SLS Loudspeakers
The RLA/1 High Output Ribbon Line Array System from SLS Loudspeakers is configured using multiple LS9900 modules and is designed for large-venue, high-SPL applications. Each LS9900 Module incorporates two 15", high-power woofers, four 6.5" midrange drivers and two PRD1000 Ribbon Drivers. Component sizes, relative positions and crossover frequencies were carefully chosen resulting in a system with much better coverage consistency and significantly lower SPL deviations along the coverage area than conventional compression driver designs. Furthermore, the RLA/1 has lower SPL loss within the coverage zone and is very effective in eliminating lobing and comb filtering.
