RCF NXL 44-A Full Range Active Two-Way Array

RCF NXL44A DETAILS

The enclosure always remains vertical - it does not have to be tilted or aimed in any way that would adversely affect its stability.

With the NXL44-A, RCF has provided a unique and powerful two-way line source, with the sound delivered from three 10" neodymium woofers and a 1.4" driver with 3" voice coil on a asymmetrical waveguide. All are perfectly tuned to deliver remarkably uniform coverage and an extended frequency range. Precision controlled by an on-board DSP and driven by a two-channel digital amp, the NXL44-A delivers very natural sounding response and high SPL for professional live sound reinforcement. The horn's design is asymmetrical so it projects sound energy with great accuracy, thereby avoiding undesired reflections. The enclosure always remains vertical - it does not have to be tilted or aimed in any way that would adversely affect its stability.

Main Features:

• Digital bi-amped amplifier with 1400 Watt peak power
• 90 deg. x 30 deg. directivity (+5 deg. , -25 deg. )
• 3 x 10" neo woofer
• 1.4" compression neo driver, 3.0" voice coil with a waveguide
• DSP Processing with optimized phase response
• Scalable
• Easy to fly and install with built-in rigging points

Unique Features
Sleek low-profile designTrue line source with extended reachAsymmetrical horn for optimized coverage. Much greater intelligibility than spherical sourcesFar more uniform SPL across the audience area.

High Performance
The advanced technology of RCF's powered line arrays has been delighting audiences and users for many years. Paired with state-of-the-art DSP-driven controllers and digital power amps, these systems raise the bar for reliability and performance. There are many situations where users wish they had a sound system that combines the benefits of line array technology - higher levels of direct rather than reflected sound, greater range and more uniform distribution - with the handling ease of two-way cabinets.

Maximum Efficiency
The NXL44-A is a true active high-power ready-to-use two-way array system, equipped with a high efficiency digital amplifier that delivers superior SPL, while reducing energy requirements. The integrated processing and the cabling reduction will make the set-up faster and easier and, thanks to its compact size, the space requirement is reduced to the minimum.

EQ Switch
"Boost" equalization is a loudness recommended for background music applications, when the system plays at a low level or when two systems are coupled. For all other applications "Flat" equalization is recommended.

Mic/line Switch
A useful Mic/Line switch to adjust the input sensitivity is provided. When used just for speech, the Mic setting allows to use a microphone directly with the speaker. Set the selector to Line when using the speaker for live music or playback.

Inside/outside Voice Coils
RCF has developed a unique voice coil, combining the advantages of inside/outside technology to the superior quality of polyimide materials (wire resins and former resins). The inside/outside coil offers many advantages: - the dissipation surface is doubled - the adhesion area to the former is doubled - during thermal expansion the former is squeezed between inside and outside layers offering the best mechanical resistance.

Specific Designed Waveguide
At the core of NXL44-A design is the new ND 840 compression driver loaded from a waveguide to a constant directivity 90 deg. x 30 deg. horn. The ND 840 large format compression driver is one of the key advantages of the NXL 44-A, the 3.0" voice coil allows a crossover point of 800Hz and therefore almost all of the vocal range can be produced by this driver.

Competitors' Array
The RCF NX L44-A will maintain its intelligibility, definition and signal strength while competitors' models will attenuate and break up before the sound reaches its throw distance.
