Long throw applications
Focusing on stadiums and big arenas, HVL Series speakers are capable of true, concert-level high performance in arena-sized venues. Featuring point source, line source, and subwoofers speakers, all modules embed RCF Precision Transducers, horns, and waveguides for optimal coverage and clarity. The cabinet’s design with coplanar woofers and horns produces identical left and right coverage, capable of delivering serious sonic horsepower within the stadium while maintaining intelligibility and even coverage at every seat.

Precision transducers
With in-house transducers’ design and manufacturing for no-compromise performances, the HVL Series excels in any comparison. All transducers feature state of the art neodymium magnetic circuits, radically new voice coil ventilation systems, and ground-breaking voice coil assemblies. Low frequencies 2 x 15” high-power woofer, 3,5" inside/outside voice coil, dual spider, hypervented, neodymium magnet.

4path waveguide
The custom 4 PATH-designed waveguide allows precise coverage while also delivering an excellent, linear high-frequency response. The unique shape of the four ducts forming the guide creates an ideal isophasic load from the vocal range up to the highest audible frequencies.
Consistent robustness
Reduce the commissioning time on your new projects with HVL’s modular array-ability, multiple directivity indexes (Q, and small footprint in comparison to its power. HVL can lower overall system costs by delivering full coverage with fewer modules precisely matching the audience area. Rated for direct-exposure outdoor installations, each cabinet is made of Baltic birch plywood with polyurea coating and includes a weatherproof barrier strip for connections. The grille is powder-coated heavy-duty steel with open-cell fibers and water repellent woven-fabric backing.
