SEAMLESS WAVE FRONT EXTREMELY HIGH SPL FOR USE IN 3- OR 4-WAY SYSTEMS PRECISE ANGULAR CONTROL

The Adamson Y18 is the original and most powerful enclosure of the Y-Axis series. The Y-Axis series design was developed to eliminate mid lobing and comb filtering, with far greater control and coverage than any conventional PA system. The Y-Axis boasts far field sonic accuracy that sounds like near field monitors at 50 meters. The Y18 is a high power, 3-way line array cabinet employs two Adamson mid/high Co-Linear drive modules (with 2 patents granted and 2 pending applications). The Adamson drive module has a co-axial entrance and a co-linear exit comprised of a high frequency sound chamber mounted within a mid frequency sound chamber. The drive module is powered by a proprietary 9 Kevlar mid and a single 1.5 HF compression driver. Together, the drive module, trapezoidal cabinet design with a wrap around grill - deliver a single, uniform, slightly curved, and seamless wavefront of mid and high frequency sound, with no gaps between cabinets. The Y18 LF section features two Adamsons proprietary AW18 18 Kevlar drivers. The Y-Axis Series are the only line arrays that create iso-phase sound sources in the high and mid frequency sections Mid lobing, comb filtering and time-smear are virtually eliminated, giving the Adamson Y-Axis line array unrivaled far field sonic accuracy. The Y-Axis series allows the end user a completely scalable system solution using 5-degree vertical elements and 100-degree horizontal coverage. The total vertical coverage is determined by the number of cabinets added to the array. Adamsons Slide Hinge rigging gets the Y18 out of the truck and into the air quickly and easily; and with optional underhang kits, the Y18 offers the most comprehensive and versatile approach to system configuration, allowing for a range of Y-Axis and SpekTrix enclosures to be utilized in a single array. The Slide Hinge rigging system features six one-degree increments, allowing precise angular positioning by adjusting the extension of the sliding hinge. When coupled with the Adamson T-21Sub, the Y18 is the absolute must have for arena and stadium venues, as well as medium to large outdoor festivals. Light aluminum dollies come standard. Optional waterproof soft covers with customized silkscreening and black powder coated aluminum rigging frames to support 16 or 24 Y10s are available as optional accessories.
