Behringer Eurolive ELX42 Ultra-Compact Fly Ready 2x4" Line Array Speaker, 80Hz-19kHz Frequency Range, 16 Ohms Impedence

The Behringer Eurolive ELX42 is an ultra-compact dual 4" line-array system with a power handling capacity of 550-Watts per enclosure. The neodymium LF drivers feature special deformation-resistant Kevlar cones that provide bulletproof bass and superbly accurate midrange. HF duties are handled by a waveguide-mounted 1" neodymium compression driver with a broad dispersion pattern of 120deg. h X 10deg. V. The ELX42 enclosure weighs just 21 lbs. (9.52kg).

What's a Line-Array?
Vertical line-array is created by stacking or suspending identical loudspeaker cabinets so the LF (Low-Frequency) and HF (High-Frequency) drivers, are placed in exact vertical alignment with each other. This enables them to work together to send sound waves much further than a single driver could. The configuration is designed so that you end up with a column each of LF and HF drivers.

By using specially designed waveguides or horns, horizontal sound dispersion can be very wide, while keeping the vertical alignment extremely tight. The resulting sound is smoother, with much more even dispersion than that of traditional horn-loaded loudspeaker systems.

Highest Quality Sound
Behringer loudspeakers provide amazingly brilliant sound, with rich and deep low-end, smear-free mids and sparkling highs. Capable of generating extremely high sound pressure levels, ELX loudspeakers utilize only the highest-quality components and are constructed of void-free birch plywood. The handmade enclosure is then finished with a special DuraCoat finish, recognized by many as the toughest finish on the market.

Custom-Designed Transducers
Let's face it; the transducers (woofers and tweeters) are the only part of a sound system you actually hear, so they don't cut any corners. They custom-design and build the transducers from scratch. This enables to control the quality and frankly, make better components, such as the Kevlar-coned, neodymium LF and HF compression drivers they deploy in each and every ELX enclosure.

System Scalability
By their very nature, vertical line-array is ideal when it comes to system scalability. This allows a venue to custom-tailor a system specifically to meet their needs. Should requirements change, more enclosures and amplifiers can be added to expand the system. Specially designed flying hardware allows for multiple subs and mid/high packs to be flown in each array.

To Fly or Not to Fly
Venues with high ceilings, such as sports arenas, concert halls and large churches, etc., often prefer to "fly" the sound system. By suspending the speaker array high above the audience, floor space is maximized and nothing comes between the audience and the performance. Rigging point is integrated into all ELX enclosure for use with dedicated flying kits, which they generously over-engineer for the utmost in safety. All of the line-arrays offer variable curvature for custom-tailoring the sound coverage to your specific venue. Alternately, the ELX system can be stacked in front of the performance area, if you have the available floor space.
