12″ Line-Array Loudspeaker

Precise directivity, even coverage, extended range, compact transport volumes and  predictable acoustical results – a quantum leap in sound reinforcement technology. The touringline is our current flagship product and the result of extensive research, development and optimization of all components. No detail overlooked, no demand not incorporated. The TouringLine sets a new standard in line array technology applicability. No more, and definitely no less!

The TouringLine is a powerful 2-way line source loudspeaker containing an internal passive crossover for economic semi-active operation. It incorporates a direct radiating 12″ neodymium low-mid woofer and a neodymium high frequency driver / wave former combination. The line array wave former has a nominal coverage pattern of 90° x 10°. The unique 12“ low-mid woofer provides that which is often missing in so called Compact-Arrays: bottom end. The TouringLine has thick and warm low-mids and makes very low crossover frequencies possible. For many applications it is possible to use the TouringLine without additional subwoofers.

Easy handling – fast assembly

With the proprietary “Quick-Rig” system, putting the array into service is easy and efficient: A 12-element array flies within fifteen minutes – including chain hoist, bumper and splay angle setup! By using T6 aluminium in combination with high load steel, it was possible to minimize the weight to 29 kg per element. A 6-element array including rigging frame weighs less than 200 kilograms.

Fulfilled BGV C1 requirement

The available accessories  round off the touringline system perfectly: The TouringLine dolly takes up to 12 elements including rigging frame and small parts. Its dimensions fit into the footprint of the Euro-Pallet trucking grid. The rigging frame is made of high load steel and has got detailed labelling for easy usage. The complete rigging system of the TouringLine is certified for safe rigging of up to 24 modules on one frame according to the strict BGV C1 requirements.

Notes on performance data and graphs:

  1. Performance Specifications: All acoustic specifications rounded to nearest whole number.
    Either NT4 DSP Amplifiers or external DSP with provided settings are required to achieve the specified performance.
  2. Frequency response: Range of the processed response, where the level stays within 6dB from nominal sensitivity.
  3. Power Handling: Is based on the AES power handling of the transducers.
  4. Nominal Sensitivity: SPL produced by the unit at 1 Watt at nominal impedance, referenced to 1 Meter.
    Measurement condition: Full space in the far field of the speaker. Time-windowed to approximate an anechoic environment.
  5. Maximum SPL: Calculated from nominal sensitivity at stated peak input power.
  6. Resolution: For better readability a 1/6 octave smoothing is applied to all response graphs shown.
    All data provided are subject to change without prior notice.

Jano Menzel (LMV Veranstaltungsservice Herne):
The line array system handled the 80m playing depth with ease. Especially during the French DJ duo "Ofenbach", who demanded a level of 98 dbA at the FoH (65m), I was surprised at how busy the system was.
Goran Salkovic (Licht Designer und Programmierer) Coca-Cola Arena Dubai:
The TourlingLine from AD Systems is a great sounding and very versatile line array. Thanks to a well thought-out rigging system and loudspeakers with an appropriate weight, set-up and handling takes little time and you don't need a large crew. The entire rigging and accessories are well thought out - you can tell immediately that practical considerations were made during development and incorporated into the product. An absolute recommendation!
Norbert Menzel (LMV Veranstaltungsservice Herne):
The Touringline impresses with its good sound, dynamics and plenty of headroom, especially in the low-mid range, even in challenging locations. Quick and easy rigging has not been neglected. Don't pick up a speaker, push the dolly under the suspension point at an angle, raise it, put the next dolly underneath and you're done. The reversible socket saves 50% cabling and makes assembly and dismantling even faster. All in all, the TouringLine Line Array is a robust, tour-ready speaker that impresses with its good sound characteristics, quick and easy rigging and good performance even over long distances.
