Three way Active/Two way Active Switch

Two way active: The “full range” LF input is applied to pins 1+ and 1- and the -6dB per octave shading network is applied to one of the LF transducers using the Low Frequency Select switch (above).

Three way active: Shading network is NOT applied (shading must be provided by upstream signal pro- cessing). Connect the full-range input signal to pins 1+ and 1-, connect the shaded (processed) signal to pins 2+ and 2-. To flip shaded transducer location, use the Low Frequency Select switch or alter signal processing. Default Low Frequency Select switch position for three way mode is position A; if put in position B, connections (per Table 1) to LF transducers A and B are interchanged.

Low Frequency Select Switch

The WideLine is a three way design (shaded, non-shaded and high frequency) with shading provided by a passive network in two way mode or upstream signal processing (DSP) in three way mode. This allows switch position selection for use as either “house left” or “house right”, without the need to flip boxes.

Two way Mode: The shading switch allows either low frequency transducer to be selected as the shaded unit (bass only) by inserting a -6dB per octave network. The switch handle points to the side of the non-shaded (full range) low-frequency transducer.

Three way Mode: The internal -6dB per octave network in NOT applied to either LF transducer. Shad- ing is accomplished with signal processing. The switch handle points to the side of the non-shaded (full range) low-frequency transducer ONLY IF the full range signal is applied to pins 1+ and 1- and the shaded signal to pins 2+ and 2-. Default position for three way mode is position A; if put in position B, connections to LF transducers A and B are interchanged.

WL 2102 specifications

The QSC Audio WL 2102 is an advanced, high-performance loudspeaker designed for professional audio applications. At the heart of its appeal is the integration of innovative technologies that deliver exceptional sound quality, reliability, and versatility. The WL 2102 is particularly well-suited for a variety of environments, including live performances, theaters, auditoriums, and corporate events.

One of the standout features of the WL 2102 is its dual 10-inch low-frequency drivers, which provide powerful bass response and clarity across a broad frequency range. The speaker is engineered to deliver a frequency response of 50 Hz to 20 kHz, ensuring that it can reproduce both low-end punch and high-frequency detail effectively. This wide frequency range makes it an ideal choice for applications where nuanced audio reproduction is critical.

The WL 2102 utilizes QSC's proprietary DMT (Directivity Matched Transition) technology. This ensures that the sound is evenly distributed across the coverage area, providing consistent sound quality and minimizing feedback issues. DMT helps to maintain clarity and intelligibility, whether the audience is seated at the front or the back of the venue.

Another important characteristic of the WL 2102 is its robust construction. Built with a durable enclosure that can withstand the rigors of touring and live events, the loudspeaker features a high-frequency horn coupled with advanced waveguide technology. This design enhances the speaker's projection and allows for greater control over dispersion, making it easier to tailor sound to specific environments.

In terms of connectivity, the WL 2102 is equipped with versatile input options, ensuring compatibility with various audio systems. It can be used in both passive and bi-amped configurations, giving audio engineers flexibility in setup and sound design. Additionally, the speaker's built-in rigging points make it straightforward to install and deploy in both fixed and portable setups.

The WL 2102 is also designed with thermal protection and built-in limiters, safeguarding the drivers during extended use and ensuring reliability in high-demand situations. This attention to safety and performance underlines QSC's commitment to quality, making the WL 2102 a trusted choice for audio professionals.

In conclusion, the QSC Audio WL 2102 represents a blend of advanced engineering, powerful sound capabilities, and durable construction. Its array of features and technologies allows it to excel in a wide range of applications, making it a versatile and dependable solution for any audio engineer or performer seeking exceptional sound reinforcement.
