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.
