Powered by a robust class D amplifier with universal mains switching power supply, the ARA-P12.115 provides a continuous power rating of 1200 W, with peak capabilities reaching 2400 W (1600 W for low frequencies and 800 W for high frequencies). The system achieves a maximum linear SPL of 134 dB and a peak SPL of 140 dB, ensuring its powerful performance in any environment.
The advanced electronics of the ARA-P12.115 include a 96kHz sampling rate complemented by an intuitive ALMA control interface for precise sound management. Each unit features a unique processing input channel operating at 96kHz with 10 EQ points and a total delay of 823ms, equivalent to 283 meters, enhancing its adaptability in system setup. The power module’s DSP platform is equipped with specially designed Finite Impulse Response filters (FIR) for acoustically flat magnitude and phase response, facilitating a coherent combination with other units of the ARA series, such as the LARA / SARA line arrays.
At the core of the ARA-P12.115 are our custom-engineered 12G3XN4C transducers, specifically designed for this model, featuring a neodymium magnet and a 3-inch Voice Coil Diameter (VCD) for high efficiency, extensive displacement capabilities, and minimal distortion. Complementing the transducers is the M78N compression driver, identical to those utilized in the ARA series line arrays, known for its ability to produce crisp, clear high frequencies. This combination of the 12G3XN4C transducer and the M78N compression driver ensures that the ARA-P12.115 delivers an audio experience that is both powerfully resonant and richly detailed, setting a new benchmark in point source system sound clarity and quality.
Designed with versatility in mind, the ARA-P12.115 is equipped with M10 rigging points, accommodating a wide array of accessories. This adaptability renders it an ideal fit for a variety of venues, configurations and uses.
