PS-R2 System Overview |
More than
200,000 NEXO PS Series speakers are already hard at work around the world
in applications where compact, high-output, linear response loudspeakers
are required. Now the new Nexo PS R2 Series delivers as much as a 5dB
higher sound pressure levels from a range comprising three scalable systems,
all of which can be quickly and easily configured for main PA use, for
use as floor monitors, or flown vertically or horizontally in installations
or for use as side/rear fills.
The Nexo PS R2 Series offers the user a totally integrated loudspeaker
solution, in which innovative transducer, waveguide and enclosure designs
come together under the control of strategic equalisation from new, dedicated
TD Controllers to ensure extended bandwidth and sound pressure levels,
along with a high degree of speaker protection.
PS Series loudspeakers have a hard-earned reputation for performance
and reliability, with countless examples performing night-in, night-out,
for more than a decade, without a single problem. Built in NEXO’s
new, state-of-the-art production facility in France and engineered from
the outset for a long, trouble-free life, the new Nexo PS R2 Series is
set to enhance this reputation yet further through a combination of even
more exacting manufacturing standards and advanced driver protection technology. |
Nexo PS-R2 Technology: |
A satisfactory audience
experience often necessitates a compromise between the wide, short throw
coverage required by listeners closest to the stage, and the narrow, long
throw coverage required by those at the back of the venue. Similarly,
coverage from monitors must be wider when the performer is closer to the
speaker, and narrower when further away. The asymmetrical horns used in
all Nexo PS R2 Series speakers are engineered such that the vertical coverage
is narrower above horn axis than below. A few minutes is all it takes
to remove the grille, unscrew the horn and rotate it to ensure optimum
directivity in every application. When used as the main PA, Nexo PS R2
systems significantly reduce the amount of ambient, reverberant energy
caused when loudspeakers misdirect their output towards walls and ceilings.
And in monitor mode, more of the output can be focussed on the performer. |

PS-R2 Front-of-House Configuration |
 |
|
In conventional Front-Of-House
configuration, a Nexo PS R2 Series loudspeaker yields 50° horizontal
coverage at 25° above the centre line. Rotating the horn expands this
to 100° at 50° below the centre line, such that coverage narrows. |
Nexo
PS-R2 Stage Monitor Configuration
|
|
|
In stage monitor
mode, a Nexo PS R2 Series loudspeaker yields 100° horizontal coverage
at 30° above the centre line, narrowing to 50° horizontal coverage
at 25° below the centre line for use when the performers are further
away.
A sticker on the wide dispersion side of the horn indicates the correct
orientation for FOH and wedge monitoring applications. The arrow on the
sticker indicates the ‘wide side’ of PS horn dispersion. Users
simply need to position the arrow such that it points in the direction
requiring widest coverage, and away from the direction requiring narrowest
coverage. |
