Compact High-definition Loudspeaker

Either mobile live sound or permanent installation; the HPI110 is a lightweight high powered compact speaker system that has a number of key technical innovations to improve performance in real venue environments. Most venues potentially degrade the performance of standard sound systems regardless of the quality. The HPI110 can be installed as a single element or as part of an array of up to three elements. Everything about the HPI110 shows a design aimed at functionality in the real world.

A Closer Look

Functionality in the real world is what separates the HPI110 from the rest of the field.

Have a bad sounding venue space? You need the HPI110. One consistent problem in reproducing intelligible voice in a venue is the degrading effect of wall and ceiling reflections. When a listener hears more sound from the reflected (reverberant) field than the primary sound system, loss of speech intelligibility results. This location in the room is known as "beyond the critical distance". The HPI system extends the "critical distance" by utilising a custom HF wave guide to direct the sound away from the walls and ceiling and into the listener area.

The HPI110 mid-high asymmetrical wave guide provides 60 degrees horizontal dispersion at the base of the flare and 30 degrees at the top. Vertical dispersion above the box is limited to 15 degrees. A large format HF driver allows for a relatively low cross-over frequency and this means more control over a wider frequency area.

The HPI110 is available in black (HPI110) or white (HPI110W) low sheen finish.

Rigging & Accessories

To get the best from the HPI110, the QR rigging system allows installation from a single box to three box arrays. With an array of three HPI110 speakers weighing in at 47kg, it's one of the most light-weight yet high powered systems in the world. This is particularly important if installation is required in a h...
