Full product details
The d&b Q1 is a passive two-way line array cabinet: two 10 inch low-frequency drivers in a dipolar arrangement and a 1.3 inch compression driver on a toroidal waveshaping device. Its 75 degree constant-directivity horizontal pattern holds down to 400 Hz, and a 15 degree vertical dispersion lets cabinets stack into a column that produces one curved, coherent wavefront.
What it is for
- Flown line arrays for conferences, awards dinners and product launches
- Concerts and live bands in venues up to arena-scale side hangs
- Rooms where sightlines matter: a flown Q1 column keeps the floor clear
- Speech, live music and playback from the same system
How it is used
Splay angles between cabinets set from 0 to 14 degrees, so an array can be shaped to the room: two cabinets give a 15 to 30 degree vertical spread, and up to twenty cabinets give a fully defined vertical profile for a large audience. Q1 flies with the Q-SUB in the same column and is driven by d&b D12 or D80 amplifiers. Cabinets are marine plywood with an impact-resistant finish and a pair of handles.
What it pairs with
Q-SUB and B2-SUB for low end, d&b D12 amplification, and M4 wedges on stage. Our engineers design the array from a venue drawing and tune it on the day as part of a sound production hire. A flown d&b line array is what we brought to the George Michael Singers Live gala at IXL Events Centre.
Delivery and support
