HYBRID CURVATURE ARRAY

The WLA-1 Hybrid Curvature Array system…..is now…..ACTIVE.

The WLA-1A active system incorporates all the incredible hardware features of its passive brother – the WLA-1 System. 

The EVO-Fold waveguides, the drivers created by Beyma in Europe and the Hybrid Curvature Array configuration are all included….but the new WLA-1A Active now brings powerful internal amplification and refined internal DSP processing to the party.

It has never been this easy to achieve stunning sonic results in a huge variety of venues.

WLA-112A

  • Active with DSP & FIR filters
  • 12″ Coaxial Beyma driver
  • 680 W Continuous
  • 1360 W Peak
  • 4.0″ LF voice coil
  • 2.87″ HF voice coil
  • 139 dB System Peak SPL

ACTIVE ELECTRONICS

Around the back of WLA-112A and WLA-115A are all the connections and control interfaces needed for a tidy system.

Select between 8 DSP presets with FIR filters and control the system remotely with the RS485 network facility.

COAXIAL FULL RANGE

The 12” and 15” elements use coaxial drivers from Beyma – which are manufactured in Europe.  

This coaxial design gives consistent coverage on both Horizontal and Vertical planes – while competitive traditional two-way line arrays do not have consistent coverage in one axis at least by design.  

WLA-112A and WLA-115A coaxial design gives consistent coverage and is unique. (Well, except for our own Wharfedale Pro WLA-1 passive models)

WLA-1A System gives constant coverage on both Horizontal and Vertical planes

Competitive traditional constant curvature two way systems do not have consistent coverage in one axis at least by design.  


HYBRID CURVATURE ARRAY

With a traditional 2-way array….arrays of 6 elements or more are simply not practical.


With the WLA-1 Hybrid Curvature design, arrays of up to 6 elements can be configured.


EVO-FOLD

EVO-Fold reduces the usual phase issues that traditional 2-way line arrays have due to them having the drive units physically some distance apart in the array. One specially-designed coaxial mid-high frequency driver is loaded to a unique EVO-Fold horn. The EVO-Fold horn combines a unique folded and manifold design. The most advanced FEM technology has been used to create this.

The high-mid energy exits produce a uniphasic sound in the widest range of frequencies. And visually, the detail of the EVO-Fold waveguide is a work of art.


21". YES - REALLY!

The 21″ subwoofer driver is manufactured by Beyma in Europe.

Extreme features… for extreme (and controllable) sub sound pressure levels.

DEPLOYMENT CHOICES


Configure vertically and deploy as a ‘traditional’ flying array.

The optional WLA-1 Common Fly Frame ensures stability and that flying is easy.

Configure on the ground.

The optional SP-4 pole easily connects the 21″ sub to the tops.  Dual angle 35 mm pole sockets in the full range elements makes angle adjustments safe and easy.

Configure a horizontal flying array.

The optional WLA-1 Link hardware connects three elements of either WLA-112A or WLA-115A to create a 3 unit horizontal array with 60 H x 100 V dispersion 

EASE FOCUS SUPPORT

WLA-1A Series have gll files available for EASE FOCUS 3.



POWERCON ™

When interconnecting WLA series active line array elements, quality, certified power cabling should be used.


Wharfedale Pro distributors also can supply Neutrik ™ powerCON cables as an accessory for sale.



These certified AC interconnecting cables use genuine Neutrik ™ NAC3FCA and NAC3FCB connectors for the ultimate in reliability and safety.


2 meters in length allows for system configuration flexibility while keeping excess cabling to a minimum.

A tidy solution for any Wharfedale Pro Active Line Array.

TALK ABOUT ANGLES

WLA-1A introduces a new Hybrid concept giving variable angles of 0, 5, 10 and 15 degrees.

Easily adjusted using the integral rigging brackets.

Very high quality suit for the price! Might as well buy, then rent.
Color: Deep Grey (Stretch Fabric), Size: X-Small
I bought this for my son for his Prom, as he decided to go last minute. He weighs around 125 pounds and is about 5'11. The XS fit was pretty amazing. As the supplier says, follow the size chart on the second picture. There is also some stretch to the material and the pants have belt loops. The only thing we noticed that we didn't like is that the sleeves were a little large at the opening around the wrist. Since the cuff-links are sew on, there isn't really on easy way to adjust this. All in all, this was a great purchase and I would highly recommend YND suits.

Good buy for sure.
Color: Burgundy (Stretch Fabric), Size: X-Large
The suit looks and feels great for the price I’m 6’3 190-200lb and ordered a size XL. I’m going to have the sleeve dropped a tad bit and waist taken in. The hem is perfect and to my liking. Will be buying 2-3 in the future.

We’re happy!
For the price, this suit was great. My son is a bigger guy and when we rent tuxes, the pants always look terrible. This one, we were happy with. He usually wears a 2x in clothes but we sized up to the 3x. He’s 6’2” and prob 270. Maybe more but the vest was still a little snug.

Caviar and Champagne look for a hot dog and beer price!!
Color: Black (Stretch Fabric), Size: Large
At this point in my life, my days of spending close to $1K for a suit are over. Now, more worried about saving enough money for retirement AND my two kids' college funds. So when I was invited to a "black tie affair" I thought, "Crap. I don't own a tuxedo and will have to rent." Calling my local tux rental shop, I was SHOCKED at how much a one-night rental would cost (average $150/night - yes, it's been over 20 plus years since I had to rent a tux but wow)! So my wife suggested I look on Amazon and see if there was something that might work. After seeing the reviews for the YND Slim Fit tuxedo, I decided to take a chance. And boy, am I glad I did!! I have been thoroughly impressed. The value for money is outstanding—this suit offers a high-end look and impeccable fit at a fraction of the cost compared to suits 10 times its price. The suit exudes sophistication and style, making a powerful statement. The attention to detail in design is evident, and the finish is almost on par with luxury suits that come with a hefty price tag. The fit is nicely tailored for an "off-the-rack" suit, not too boxy or not too "slim" (I'm 6'0, 190lbs, and purchased the 'Large'). The suit highlights the best features while providing optimum comfort. In summary, this suit is a true gem, offering exceptional value, a remarkable look, a superb fit, and style that rivals much more expensive options. Highly recommended for those seeking quality without breaking the bank.
