Each of the three models offers low frequency enhancement specific to particular sound reinforcement applications from mobile entertainment, AV rental and event production to dance and performance venues. Small footprint and easy-to-deploy products are very valuable when space is at a premium and tight, low frequencies are desired. In other situations, where excessive sound in specific areas is undesirable, be it on stage or outdoors, a low frequency cardioid radiation will be extremely useful in `keeping bass in its place'. Additionally, low frequency reproduction should also address today's dynamic, high-energy content heard in many clubs and venues.
