The
Martin Audio W8LMD is a mini, wide-dispersion vertically arrayable enclosure.
It can be used individually and in small quantities for short to medium
throw applications (up to 30 metres) as well as a downfill element for
the W8LM. Its 20° vertical dispersion requires fewer cabinets to cover
the same area as a conventional line array element, yet it still benefits
from the smooth, predictable coverage of a vertically coupled system.
