Adamson S-Series - Manual (Page 6)

1.0 Introduction
1.1 Overview
This manual is designed to give the S-Series user the necessary information to accurately
fly or stack S-Series loudspeakers in all the available configurations, as well as the proper
deployment and use of S-Series loudspeakers. Safe step by step rigging procedures will be
outlined, as well as example system configurations, correct wiring and amplification and
transport.
Whether it is amplification, control, networking and monitoring, the S-Series packaging is built
to perform and endure. Our alliances have been made with companies that are leading the
industry in their technologies and in their ideologies: Dante-networking, Lake-processing and
Lab.gruppen-amplification. After all it’s the total system performance that matters.
Low-mid frequency lobing is a common side-effect of traditional 2-way enclosures.
To solve this problem, Adamson has introduced Controlled Summation Technology,
which reduces the spacing between mid frequency sources by outwardly splaying the
drivers and using overlap control between mid frequency and high frequency sources
to suppress the interference normally associated with this type of design. Doing this
also allows the high frequency sound chamber to retain its exit size, ensuring that it
retains its superior directivity control.
Adamson’s SlideLock rigging system has been designed to remove operator stress
while adding confidence. A single technician can safely and quickly fly the entire
rig, setting angles while the cabinets are sitting securely on the 4-up dolly. Once the
array is lifted, all cabinets simply align into 1 of 9 incremental splay positions.
