Conference halls and auditoria ask a column for more than speech: walk-in music, video playback and a full room at the end of the day. The LC8.4H is a two-way line of eight 4.5″ cone drivers and eight 1″ high-frequency drivers in a 969 mm cabinet, rated 640 W AES and 129 dB peak. The vertical pattern holds to 27° and the horizontal to 128°. We specify it for conference and lecture halls, auditoria, houses of worship and large commercial spaces that need more headroom than a full-range column gives.

Part of the LC System

Two-way, eight 4.5″ drivers with eight 1″ high-frequency drivers, 129 dB peak: conference halls, auditoria and worship.

LC stands for Line Column. Drivers stacked in a vertical line that radiates as one line source, so the vertical pattern is set by the length of the column: energy lands on the listeners and stays off the reverberant ceilings and walls around them. The outdoor W models carry the same principle in IP66 die-cast aluminium, and the D models carry their own amplifier and take Dante audio and PoE power on one network cable.

Measurement conditions

  1. Maximum SPL is the peak level at 1 m, driven with pink noise at crest factor 4 to the clipping point of the recommended amplifier, with the SSOUNDS system preset applied. Full-range enclosures are specified under free-field conditions; figures marked half-space are specified over a reflecting plane, the condition subwoofers are deployed in, which adds approximately 6 dB.
  2. Frequency response is specified on axis at 1 m in a free field. The tolerance the figure is referenced to is stated alongside it; where no tolerance is given, the figure is the −6 dB bandwidth.
  3. Sensitivity is specified at 1 W into the nominal impedance at 1 m on axis, averaged across the pass band of the enclosure.
  4. Coverage angles are nominal −6 dB values averaged across the pass band. Per-octave directivity data is available from SSOUNDS system design support for prediction and modelling.
  5. Power handling is rated to AES2 using pink noise with a 6 dB crest factor over a two-hour period. Programme power is twice the AES rating; peak power is four times.
  6. Nominal impedance is the manufacturer's rating for amplifier load calculation; minimum impedance across the operating band may be lower.
  7. Net weight excludes packaging, flight case, accessories and optional rigging hardware.
  8. Dimensions are stated in millimetres and exclude protruding rigging hardware, handles and connector panels unless noted.
  9. All figures are typical values for production units specified under the conditions above. Individual units may vary within published tolerances.
