IDea OVA12-A 12 Inch Active Multipurpose Loudspeaker User Guide
Overview
OVA 12-A is a versatile, high-performance full range 2-way active wedged
monitor con- ceived for professional environments where portable sound
reinforcement is required, delivering a superior audio reproduction in a very
compact, multipurpose format.
OVA 12A is an active system designed to provide broad and versatile
solutions, such as fixed installations, mobile applications for both, stage
monitor and sound reinforce- ment.
It sports a rotating 90º x 70º horn, which allows it to be used in vertical or
horizontal fixed installations, as a stage monitor or as a front fill.
Its 1400 Watt (peak) bi-amplified digital amplifier, along with its DSP,
controls three working modes: sound reinforcement (Music), stage monitor
(Monitor) and high pass filter (Low Cut), so it can be used either for
satellite, or as a system with sub.
OVA 12-A features two channels with XLR COMBO connectors: Channel A with
swit- chable line microphone and Channel B with line. Both channels use an
independent balanced XLR output and balanced XLR output with gain level.
