Adjusting the Angle Between Enclosures (Splay)

The illustration shows the rear pin block of two enclo- sures joined by the upper enclosure’s rear link arm.

Use the first pin location (closest to the end) on the link arm for setting in normalized 2° increments. The left- side example shows two enclosures linked for 8° of splay. The ball-lock pin is inserted into the 8° position in the rear block while passing through the “normal” pin hole in the link.

When the "+3" location is used, an additional 3° are added to the "normalized" location. The right side example shows two enclosures linked for 9° of splay. The ball-lock pin is inserted into the 6° position in the rear block while passing through the “+3°” pin hole in the link. The total splay is the 6° indicated on the block, plus the 3° additional from the link position, for a total of 9°. In this manner 1° increments can be attained starting with 3° (0° block location and +3° link arm location).

Array Frames (Fly Grids)

There are two array frames available for the WideLine system.

The large frame is used for flying a typical four to twenty-four-box array. The large grid may be inverted and used to stack up to twelve or more enclosures.

A compact and easier to handle frame is available for use as a small array, four or less, stacking or fly grid. This grid will easily sit on deck stacked bass enclosures or it can be used at those smaller events to fly clusters from the stage trusses.

Large Array Frame (Fly Grid)

Do not fly (suspend) more than twenty-four (24) enclosures form the large array frame.

Do not stack more than twelve (12) enclo- sures on a large array frame.

Use only 5/16” diameter x 1.25” long ball- lock pins on front receiver tubes.

The three pick up rails allow for any number of rigging solutions to fit the most demanding venues. The rails are drilled for industry standard 5/8" shackles.

Rear link attached to achieve a 9° splay between enclosures.

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.
