COBRA-2 SYSTEM

Cobra-2

COMPACT LINE-ARRAY ACTIVE 2-WAY SYSTEM

The Cobra-2 system is designed to provide high-quality sound reinforcement for events in small to medium-sized marquees or halls covering distances of up to 40 meters and areas up to 1,000 square meters.

The system produces a maximum sound pressure level of 137 dB L and 137 dB R in the mid / high fre- quency range and up to 141 dB in the bass. In its basic configuration, the Cobra-2 system comprises four Cobra-Top mid / high cabinets, four Cobra-Sub subwoofers, a ready-wired and pre-programmed system amp rack and the requisite 4-pin loudspeaker system cables along with a set of wedges (two 2.5° wedges that can be used either side) that make it possible to aim the Cobra-Top cabinet to suit the

area to be covered. The system amp racks are easily capable of driving up to six Cobra-Top and/ or six Cobra-Sub cabinets. If it is desired to expand the system, the amp rack is capable of accommo- dating additional power amplifiers (bass extension, front- / side-fills or monitors) as well as supplying them with the requisite power via the AC connector panel.

The maximum Cobra-2 configuration that makes sense comprises two Cobra-2 systems per side (four Cobra-Tops and four to six Cobra- Subs per side). Since, however, doubling the number of stacked or flown Cobra-Top cabinets results in a halving of the vertical co- verage angle, particular attention must be paid in such cases to the aiming of the cabinets in the wing

or stack. A single Cobra-Top has a (horizontal x vertical) coverage pattern of 120° x 30°; this is reduced to 120° x 15° if a second, and to 120° x 7.5° if a third, Cobra-Top is added to the stack. When ground- stacked, the Cobra-Top cabinets can be aimed with precision at the area to be covered through the use of the 2.5° wedges that are supplied as standard. If added pressure or projection is needed in the bass, whether due to the style of music or to the acoustics of the venue, Cobra-2 systems can also be armed with Cobra-PWH bass horns.

With two PWH cabinets (or three Cobra-Subs) superposed, you obtain a plinth the ideal height (180 cm) for ground-stacking the Cobra-Top cabinets on.
