d&b 10AL - Manual (Page 5)

2.1. Product description
The 10S, 10A and 10AL and their "D versions" are a family of high
performance 2-way loudspeakers employing a single 10” driver in
a bass-reflex enclosure and different HF sections for a wide range
of installed sound applications. All models are lightweight passive
designs using neodymium drivers and large horns for accurate
pattern control.
The 10AL and 10AL-D loudspeakers are the line array modules of
this family. They provide constant directivity HF line sources with
either 75° or 105° horizontal coverage using dual 1” exit drivers.
The cabinets are equipped with an integrated rigging system for
the design of vertical arrays providing application specific
dispersion characteristics.
With a frequency response extending from 60 Hz to 18 kHz, the
cabinets can be used as full range systems or supplemented by
different subwoofers of the xS- or xA-Series.
The enclosures are constructed from marine plywood with an
impact resistant black paint finish. The fronts of the cabinets are
protected by a rigid metal grill backed by an acoustically
transparent foam.
The cabinets are Ball Impact Resistant according to DIN 18032-3.
Rigging components
10AL/10AL-D cabinets are connected to form a vertical array
each using the Z5417 Connector plates 10AL. Possible splay
angle settings between adjacent cabinets are 0°, 1°, 2°, 4°, 6°,
9°, 12° and 15°. A vertical array may consist of up to 9 cabinets.
Up to two 18A or 27A subwoofers can be integrated into the
array limiting the maximum number of 10AL/10AL-D cabinets to 6.
Vertical arrays are supported using the Z5414 Flying bar xA and
a pair of Z5413 Flying bar connector plates xA.
Note: For approved configurations as well as safety and
mounting instructions, refer to the respective rigging manual.
Cabinet options
The weather resistant version (WR) is suitable for outdoor use
(IP34, vertical aiming up to +15°). The cabinets have an impact
and weather protected black PCP (Polyurea Cabinet Protection)
finish.
