Speaker Layout
Speaker System Overview
Necessities such as high SPL, yet carefully controlled across the different zones, and the often
encountered low ceilings dictate the use of a distributed speaker design.
IF2112/95 used for dance floor areas to provide high SPL with controlled coverage to minimize
reflections from hard surfaces.
For applications not requiring such high SPLs, the IF2112/95M medium power models can be
substituted.
IF1218 subwoofer(s) provide the sub. Driving the IF1218 in discrete mode (each 18” driver
separately) from two amplifiers provides redundancy. Loosing bass in a dance bar is not an option!
Compact 8” models such as the IF2108 and IF2208 lend themselves well for lower SPL areas such
as dining, vertical drinking, chill out, VIP lounges etc.
