DESCRIPTION

The COBRA-2 SYSTEM is designed to provide high-quality sound
reinforcement for events in small to medium-sized marquees or halls
covering distances up to 40 metres and areas in the region of 1,000
square metres.
The COBRA-2 SYSTEM produces a maximum SPL of 137 dB L
+137 dB R in the
medium-and high frequency ranges and up to 141 dB in
the bass. In its
basic configuration, the COBRA-2 SYSTEM consists of
four COBRA TOP
midrange/high-frequency enclosures, four COBRA SUB
subwoofers, a ready
cabled and programmed 12 U amp rack,the CSR-12,
as well as the necessary
4-core loudspeaker cables and a 2.5° wedge
set (comprising a pair of
wedges that can be placed at the front or
back of the cabinets) to aim
the COBRA TOPs at the listening area.
The coverage pattern of the COBRA-2 SYSTEM is 120° in the horizontal
plane and 15° in the vertical. Up to six COBRA TOPs and six COBRA SUBs
can be driven by the CSR-12 AMP RACK without difficulty. To allow for
expansion of the system, the CSR-12 has room for an additional 3U
power
amplifier (sub extension,separate front-/side-fill or monitor),
which
gets its current from the CP-44 connector panel.
The largest
sensible configuration of the COBRA-2 SYSTEM consists of one
COBRA-2
array per side (four TOPs and 4-6 SUBs per side). For
especially
powerful and penetrating bass reproduction, suitable for a
wide range
of types of music and venue, COBRA PWH bass horns can be
integrated
into the COBRA-2 SYSTEM. Since doubling the number of COBRA
TOP
enclosures halves their vertical radiation angle, special attention
must be paid to the way they are aligned – regardless of whether they
are flown or stacked.
A COBRA TOP has a coverage pattern of 120° x
30° (horizontal and
vertical). Two COBRA TOPs stacked directly on top
of one another have a
coverage pattern of 120° x 15° and four stacked
cabinets, 120° x 7.5°.
With a ground stack, it is easy to aim the
TOP cabinets at the listening
area by placing CSW-25 2.5° wedges
between the SUBs or the PWHs.
