The XLD 281 module is the core element for constructing X-Line XLD systems. It is a three–way design using CCT (Coverage Control Technology) to control horizontal coverage to 250Hz.  It uses an 8" neodymium LF transducer, an 8" neodymium LF/MB transducer, and two neodymium 2" voice coil compression drivers combining through two hydra plane wave generators into a 120° x 10° waveguide.

    CCT uses both 8" transducers to provide maximum low frequency output and operating bandwidth while controlling horizontal beam width to 250Hz by using DSP. The XLD281 can be used in tri-amp mode, or in bi-amp using a sophisticated internal passive network.

    Designed for use in arrays of four or more elements the XLD281 delivers full bandwidth audio with precise, predictable coverage control. Integrated rigging with hinge points located correctly between array elements is simple to use and quickly provides uncompromised line array performance. Ground stacking is easily achieved using array rails or subs as the array base.

    The XLD 281 modules can be used in conjunction with the XS212, a double 12" bass cabinet featuring two of EV’s new DVX3120 woofers. A unique configuration allows side firing transducers to match the XLD281 horizontal coverage and match the rigging footprint. The XS212 can be used above or below arrays of XLD281 or, if vertical space is limited, it can be flown behind the full range array.

    Depending on music style and taste, the ratio of XLD to XS212 is 3:1 or 4:1. Ground stacked, one XS212 has the same height as two XLD281 which is convenient for transportation.
