[. . . ] The formidable EVTM X-LineTM not only provides easy rigging, but also combines EV's legendary sonic clarity and vocal intelligibility with the uniform, predictable coverage that only a superior line array can offer. Now, the same designers have distilled the incredible sound of the X-Line into the new X-Line Compact. [. . . ] This revolutionary system delivers unprecedented performance and amazing flexibility to sound designers and installers everywhere. The applications list goes on and on: large indoor and outdoor spaces, high-ceiling venues, performing arts centers, auditoriums, large houses of worship with wide horizontal coverage requirements, coliseums, sports facilities, gymnasiums. . . anywhere first-quality sound is needed permanently. Cabinets The XLC system is designed for use in groups of four or more cabinets. As with the X-Line, three different cabinets offer maximum flexibility for applications. They are the XLC 127 main cabinet, the XLC 124 down fill cabinet, and the XLC 118 subwoofer. Intelligent cabinet design minimizes the distance between drivers from cabinet to cabinet, maintaining true line-array characteristics even in curved-front arrays. Most importantly, the XLC uses EV's revolutionary vertical plane-wave generator to correct high-frequency phase response and make vertical wave-front summing exceptionally coherent. All this adds up to incredible sonic clarity and uniformity, even in hard-to-cover areas. Innovative Rigging The XLC's advanced integrated rigging frame and easy-to-use, custom system hardware make one-person installations a reality. The captive front interlocking system has no separate parts to keep track of and "disappears" into the frame to maintain an uncluttered, attractive appearance. Single-pin rigging in the rear allows quick, easy adjustment of cabinet angles and array aiming.
