ISE 2023: Wharfedale Pro unveils Drone series
- Details
Of particular interest is Wharfedale Pro’s Drone series. Specifically intended for the hospitality sector, this passive installation solution is designed with versatility and flexible configurations in mind. The IP56-certified Drone-G Pack is intended for outdoor use. Available in a range of colours and with ground spikes, it is specifically designed for discreet placement in a variety of environments. With Hi and Low impedance models, systems can be as large or as small as needed.
Another newcomer to the Wharfedale Pro range, the WLA-210A active line array will also feature at ISE this year. This dual 10” active solution is designed and engineered in the UK and includes several new acoustic features, including custom phase plugs and the acclaimed EVO-Fold waveguide.
“The WLA-210A possesses all the technical detail required for serious fixed install or touring,” explains Simon Godfrey, sales director at Wharfedale Pro. “We’re enthusiastic to share this innovative line array solution at ISE.”
When it comes to amplification, the new 4-channel DP-4035i from Wharfedale Pro brings all the DNA of the DP series into a configuration perfectly formed for fixed installations. A tamper-proof front grille protects the channel volume controls while rear panel connections, including GPIO, use Euro blocks to facilitate easy installation.
Finally, the DELTA-AX full-range models and long-established Programme series now offer new features in the latest product upgrades. Re-engineered by the Wharfedale Pro R&D team, these developments are evidence that the brand continues to place a high value on the evolution and improvement of its product ranges.
The all-new Programme-X passive series brings increased SPLs, new drivers and refined physical dimensions to aid any installation configuration. On the other hand, the updated DELTA-AXF12 and AXF15 models now feature internal FIR filters which allow for independent control of magnitude and phase, more detailed equalisation and optimisation of frequency and power response, resulting in highly improved system performance overall.
Simon Godfrey explains, “The team is excited to unveil our new solutions at ISE 2023. Our development direction for several years has been to make things easier for our users, and this philosophy is especially reflected in our new Drone series - a family of interconnecting products to address the hospitality market. With our focus on the customer and a new range of active solutions for touring and fixed installation, we are looking forward to meeting friends old and new at the show.”
