Adamson Systems Engineering is launching the IS10 and IS119
installation-tailored loudspeakers at InfoComm 2017, the larger siblings to the
highly-acclaimed IS7 and IS118 cabinets introduced earlier this year.
“The IS-SERIES puts the technology and performance of Adamson’s
revered touring products, including Kevlar drivers, into an exterior design
specifically developed for the architectural market, offering architects and
designers outstanding audio performance and rider acceptance that blends
perfectly into the aesthetics of the venue,” comments Brian Fraser, Adamson’s
Senior Applications Engineer and Product Manager. “The IS-SERIES is perfectly
suited for a wide range of applications, including performing arts centers,
live performance venues, sports venues, conference centers, and houses of
worship.”
The IS10 is a two-way, full-range line array cabinet containing
two ND10-LM, 10” Kevlar Neodymium drivers and an NH4TA2, 1.5” exit compression
driver. The critically optimized waveguide produces a slightly curved wavefront
with a nominal dispersion pattern of 110° x 10° (H x V). The waveguide’s
efficiency allows for increased vertical dispersion without sacrificing
high-frequency presence in the far field while the patent-pending Controlled
Summation Technology further eliminates the low-mid lobing normally associated
with two-way line source systems.
For ultra-precise impulse response, the companion IS119 subwoofer
is loaded with a lightweight, long excursion 19” ND19 Kevlar Neodymium driver
utilizing Adamson’s Advanced Cone Architecture and a 5” voice coil for
exceptional power handling. It is mounted in an ultra-efficient, front-loaded
enclosure, designed to reproduce clean, musical low-frequency information. The
grill profile of the IS119 has been replicated in the rear of the cabinet,
allowing for cardioid deployments that appear visually identical from the
audience’s perspective.
The IS-SERIES cabinet construction uses marine-grade birch
plywood and aircraft-grade steel. All IS-SERIES products come standard with two
NL4 connections and can also be ordered with barrier strips. A plate-and-screw
rigging solution is recessed in the interior of the rear rigging fins for easy
installation. The IS-SERIES is available in a standard black and white, with
RAL colors available on demand.
The
IS10 and IS119 will begin shipping in late Summer 2017.
