Kiva Line Array Speakers

...ucer configuration generates a symmetric horizontal coverage of 100deg without secondary lobes over the entire frequency range.

The combination of coPlanar symmetry and DOSC waveguide in the HF region allows the system to fulfil the 5 WST criteria, thereby allowing the wavefront of a KIVA line source to be curved up to a maximum of 15˚ for each element without breaking the inter-element acoustic coupling.

The captive 3-point rigging system is fully integrated into the KIVA cabinet allowing up to 20 elements (or 12 KIVA and 4 KILO) to be flown in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations.

The KIVA cabinet is made of a unique composite material with remarkable acoustic properties (very similar to Baltic birch plywood) and with the added benefit of a high immunity to moisture.

The KIVA enclosure is driven by the dedicated LA4 amplified controller. The performance of KIVA depends upon the choice of preset and physical system configuration.

Line Array Speakers

Line array speakers make up a loudspeaker system to create a sound source that produces an evenly distributed sound output. The driver of each line array element is close enough to the driver of the next element to create constructive interference. The resulting sound waves go farther than sound waves from traditional loudspeakers. Line array systems date back to the early days of research in acoustics. Many old town halls and public venues still have old line source boxes which were found to project voice well though they are much smaller than horn-loaded speakers. These days, line array speakers use different drivers for high-, mid- and low-frequency passbands that must be in line. Each enclosure must be set up closely to form columns composed of these drivers. To increase the frequency range and maximum sound pressure, the number of drivers per enclosure must be increased. The orientation of line array speakers may vary. Vertical arrays are excellent for focusing sound at audiences without wasting output energy on ceilings or empty air above the audience because of its very narrow vertical output with a normally-wide horizontal pattern. On the other hand, horizontal line arrays have a very narrow horizontal output with a tall vertical pattern. For hanging concert speakers which are usually part of a concert reinforcement system, enclosures are set up together using a specialized rigging hardware and they hang from a single point. These line array speakers are curved backward at the lower portion so that the sound will reach more audience.
