MPSA Loudspeaker Systems Modular Point Source Line Arrays Designed for power, portability and versatility, CF101LA and CFX101LA modular point source line array systems from Renkus-Heinz are the ideal solution for today’s small and mid-sized venues, including auditoriums, night clubs, theaters and houses of worship. CF101LA/CFX101LA Array Module Individual full range cabinets can be used as a standalone system, either with or without an associated subwoofer.
MPSA Loudspeaker Systems Floor Mounted Systems Cf101LA and CFX101LA point source line array modules and their matching CF15S and CFX15S subwoofers were designed for maximum flexibility. They can be used as a single cabinet or in mulicabinet arrays and can be ground stacked, pole mounted or flown. Each module adds 15 degrees of vertical coverage and additional level to the array. Several typical arrangements are shown here.
MPSA Loudspeaker Systems Flying Arrays CF101LA and CFX101LA arrays fly as easily as they ground stack. The heavy duty RHANG101LA Flybar supports arrays of up to 6 cabinets ( 4 array modules and 2 subwoofers). It attaches easily to the top cabinet using quick disconnect pins, whether the top cabinet is a line array module or a matching subwoofer. The bridle design of the flybar allows easy adjustment of the arrays tilt allowing the array’s sonic output to be directed onto the audience.
MPSA Loudspeaker Systems CF15S and CFX15S Subwoofer Assembly CF15S and CFX15S Subwoofers are equipped with rubber feet that fit into matching cups in the top of the lower subwoofer when two units are stacked together. As a result when the subwoofers are flown in an array such as the one shown above, the subwoofer has to turned upside down. Otherwise the feet prevent the subwoofer and array module from being joined together.

MPSA Loudspeaker Systems High Frequency Control Settings Not all setups are identical and neither are all rooms. The high frequency level controls on the rear of each CF101LA and CFX101LA point source array module allow you to adjust the high frequency output of each module to compensate for the increased loss of high frequency energy from air loss over distance, for increased coupling between array modules at low frequencies and for varying room sizes and acoustics.
