THE LEVEL: PROGRESSIVE HORN POINT SOURCE

FULL RANGE progressive Horn Passive Cardioid High SPL Discreet


Level L38

Available Models: L38 wall, L38 ceiling

 

Description

The Level L38 is a new take on a full range loudspeaker with a low-profile design, offering various application possibilities. The L38 is meant to be mounted flush on a wall (L38w) or ceiling (L38c), standing only 8 inches from the surface, utilizing hardware that is already built into the cabinet. This sleek-looking loudspeaker is comprised of three 8-inch drivers, one of which is a coaxial with a proprietary progressive horn design that is rotatable, capable of a max SPL of 130 dB. This loudspeaker has an impactful sound with outstanding clarity and sonic intelligibility especially at a higher SPL range. The L38 was designed to have passive cardioid behavior, which means the mid-low frequencies will reduce a linear 8 dB off-axis of the speaker. This single-channel loudspeaker has a bandwidth down to 65 Hz, making it ideal as a stand-alone loudspeaker.

The progressive horn design and internal angle allow this loudspeaker to be mounted optimally 8 to 15 feet high on a wall. If mounted on a wall, the dispersion covers almost 90 degrees below the loudspeaker. This is significant because the listener can be almost directly under the loudspeaker on the wall and is in the listening field, while the cardioid behavior lessens the reflection of low-mid frequencies onto the ceiling. This discreet loudspeaker can be positioned on a wall in high-energy bars, restaurants, or retail environments allowing for a sleek aesthetic and a full range system that can emit high SPL. The L38, like all 1 SOUND loudspeakers, is available in various colors and finishes with a short turnaround time and is IP55 and saltwater resistant.
