The new VF passive series consists of five models of VFR two-way full-range loudspeakers - two VFS subwoofers and three VSM stage monitors. This range represents a new approach to the needs of professional audio from EAW; combining a hybrid of portable and install features in one package, says the company.
The VF series is intended for both portable and install applications and environments, including auditoriums, theatres, nightclubs and DJ setups, bars, music performances, houses of worship, and mobile churches.
New SBK series subwoofers will also debut. Designed to complement EAW's MK Series full-range loudspeakers in construction, size and sound, they can also be used as stand-alone subwoofers in a system from any other EAW model.
The SBK line includes three models: SBK150 (single 15-inch), SBK180 (single 18-inch) and SBK250 (double 15-inch) subwoofers, all three units operating in passive mode. Applications can include concert halls, houses of worship, arenas, large ballrooms, live theatre, gymnasiums and much more.
Adding to the popular MicroWedge series of stage monitors, EAW has announced the MicroWedge8 (MW8) and MicroWedge10 (MW10). These are a small-format continuation of the MW line. The MW8 and MW10 are suitable for applications that demand the high level of performance, audio quality, inherent feedback stability, smooth coverage and ergonomic design of the MW12 and MW15 without the need for MW12/MW15's levels of power-handling and size.
QX Series loudspeakers will also be exhibited. Optimised for installed system applications that require "precise directivity in a powerful low-profile form", the QX Series provides size-efficient yet very high output point source clusters. QX is particularly geared toward medium-to-large-sized spaces including sports arenas but is also designed for a wide range of other venues requiring high power and consistent coverage in a compact housing.
