The W8LMI is a compact line array enclosure designed to bring line array performance to small and medium scale applications in the fixed installation market. It features the same acoustic components and construction as the touring W8LM as well as a custom-designed integral flying system tailored to the needs of a fixed installation environment, such as theatres and indoor venues. The flying hardware is rated at 7:1 for 12 cabinets and is compatible with the W8LM flying frame and lifting bar.

Following the constant directivity horn design philosophy of the W8L and the W8LC, the W8LMI is a three-way system that combines line array principles with innovative horn loading techniques to produce a next generation, small line array with maximum dynamic impact.
