PHYSCIAL
• Dual 15-in woofers maximize LF output
• Horn-loaded 10-in cone mid frequency section with Radial
Phase Plug™
• Horn-loaded 1.4-in exit/3-in voice coil HF compression
driver
• Cutaway rear corner directs coverage down from a position
close to the ceiling
• High-output system designed to deliver the extreme level
requirements of high energy dance clubs
The DC2 is engineered for use in permanent installations. The
system includes dual 15-in woofers in an optimally vented
enclosure, a horn-loaded 10-in midrange and a 1.4-in exit/3-
in voice coil high frequency compression driver on a 90° (h)
x 40° (v) dispersion constant directivity horn.
A complex asymmetrical internal passive crossover/filter net-
work provides MF/HF subsystem integration. An MX Series
Close Coupled Processor™ should integrate the LF and MF/HF
subsystems.
The DC2 bi-amplified three-way dance club system provides
high output, high definition reinforcement for medium to
large sized clubs. Overall design is robust to ensure reliabili-
ty in the face of continuous peak output operation.
The DC2 is designed for overhead mounting in a horizontal
configuration to cover medium to large sized dance floors. It
is also very effective when used as a reinforcement system in
live music clubs. Its cutaway upper-rear corner allows it to
tuck up next to the ceiling while angling its coverage down
20°. The enclosure includes balance-optimized threaded
mounting points.
Like all EAW products, it can be special ordered in virtually
any color to match a specific décor. Six year warranty.
