Description
The ShowMatch DeltaQ SM5 full-range array modules deliver precise vertical coverage with a nominal 5° range, featuring interchangeable waveguides for flexible horizontal dispersion options of 70° or 100°, and an additional 55° with an optional accessory. You can replace a single waveguide panel to create asymmetrical horizontal patterns. This 2-way module necessitates external power amplifiers (2 channels) and DSP for full-range audio reproduction between 59 – 18,000 Hz, achieving a peak array output of up to 145 dB.
KEY FEATURES
DeltaQ technology, the innovative advancement in array design, enables variable “Q” (directivity) for each module, ensuring consistent coverage across a broad frequency spectrum, reducing array weight and cost, and enhancing vocal clarity. This technology allows arrays to cover extensive vertical angles with fewer modules.
Interchangeable waveguides offer both 70° and 100° configurations for adaptable horizontal coverage, providing superior coverage control and vocal clarity due to the large size in its class. Additionally, a single panel can be altered for asymmetrical patterns, with optional 55° waveguides available for the SM5 model.
The compact, portable enclosure is optimized for both permanent installations and mobile applications, making it ideal for environments ranging from intimate clubs and houses of worship to expansive performing arts centers and AV productions.
Tour-grade output levels are achieved with 4x EMB2S compression drivers that offer enhanced high-frequency output, and 2x 8-inch neodymium high-power woofers, providing an array output of up to 145 dB SPL.
The 3-point “quick pin” rigging system ensures fast and simple setup, accommodating up to 24 full-range modules and maintaining a 10:1 safety factor.
Removable rigging guard/handles offer protection and easy handling for portable setups and can be detached for permanent installations, resulting in a slimmer profile and cleaner aesthetic.
Exclusive to the SM5 modules, the rigging overlap angle adjustment allows for precise coverage overlap or “splay,” adjustable from 0 to 5° in 1° increments, ensuring long throw distance and high SPL performance.
