Kudo line array comes in several configurations to best meet the various size and application needs of a sound reinforcement system.
Kudos main speakers
Kudos main speakers are the key components in any Kudo system. It provides clear sound at high and low volumes for singing, music, presentations, or any other event. Regardless of the situation, the Kudo main speakers are loud enough for large spaces without losing quality.
Kudo subwoofers
Kudo subwoofers make the sound even better by providing deep bass for music and other events. All the low sounds, like the thump of drums or the bass of a speaker, are better handled with Kudo subs. They fill in the missing low-end frequencies for a complete sound experience.
Angled array system
The Kudos angled array system uses special angled speakers to project the sound more evenly across a large space. This means no matter where someone is seated, they will hear the sound at the same quality level. The angled speakers help the sound reach all areas of a venue equally well, without hot spots or dead zones.
Assymetric array system
The Kudos asymmetrical array system uses differently shaped speaker arrays to better sound certain parts of a space, like the stage or audience area. Some arrays are aimed more toward the front of the venue, while others focus on the back. This allows even coverage of tone and volume no matter where people are seated.
Understand the space
Before getting a Kudo line array, measure the area where it will be used most. The venue's size, shape, and how many people will be there all affect which system is best. Larger spaces need more powerful speakers to reach everyone.
Choose the right size system
Kudos come in small, medium, and large array systems depending on how big the space is. Small ones are good for small rooms, and big ones handle sound for very large auditoriums or stadiums. Picking the correct size ensures the sound reaches all corners equally.
Consider array configuration
Kudos provide two main types of speaker arrays. The Angled line array system projects sound more evenly across a wide space using slanted speakers. The Asymmetric line array better focuses the sound toward certain areas, like the stage or seating.
Assess power and coverage
Look at how powerful each Kudo array is and how wide an area they cover. Arrays with more power and wider speakers reach larger venues more effectively without falling flat in any area. The coverage should extend to the farthest seats.
Evaluate hang capabilities
Many Kudo arrays can be safely hung from ceilings, which is better for very large spaces. Ensure any chosen system has the correct hanging hardware available so it can be properly supported up high.
Select supporting equipment
Get the right stereo systems and subwoofers designed to pair well with the Kudo arrays. They must have compatible power handling and speaker connections.
Check portability
If transporting the system is needed, pick an array configuration that isn't overly heavy or too many separate pieces to carry. Some Kudo line arrays are made lighter for easier loading in and out.
Speaker placements
Kudos feature speakers arranged in vertical suspended columns called arrays. This line speaker setup directs the sound better than regular speakers by sending it in narrow angled beams to all parts of a space equally well.
Good sound from anywhere
The angled arrays and column shapes also allow the Kudo systems to provide clear, wat sounding experiences in less than ideal spaces, such as those with an unusual configuration, outdoor areas, or much echo.
Powerful bass
The arrays work best paired with Kudo subs, which handle lower bass sounds. The subs use multiple low-frequency speakers to deliver solid bass lines and beats throughout even the largest venues without distortion.
Skimping on the details isn't worth it
Sitting through dozens of mundane tasks like wiping down speakers or checking wires for corrosion can feel boring. But those tedious jobs keep the Kudo system working its best for years.
Strengthening the rig for the road
The rigorous travel schedule commonly faced by Kudo arrays demands close attention during prep work. Employing ample protective coverings and thorough inspections can mitigate the risk of venue-related repairs.
Speaker array power
A Kudo speaker array's power ranges between 600 and 1500 watts, depending on the model selected.
Subwoofer power
Kudo subwoofers are ravenous, with some packing 3000 watts of power within their sturdy frames.
Maximum sound output
The highest output of a Kudo line array reaches 150 decibels, making it appropriate for use in large venues.
Frequency range
Kudos arrays are designed to produce sounds ranging from as low as 35 Hz to as high as 20 kHz.
Materials used
The cabinets of a Kudo system are crafted from plywood for a perfect balance of durability and lightness. A weather-resistant coating is applied to outdoor cabinets for comprehensive moisture protection.
Overall array upkeep
A Kudo line array requires minimal maintenance due to its efficiency. Just be sure to cover it between uses so it isn't damaged by rain. Routinely check that all connections are tightly joined and free from rust.
Subwoofer specific care
Give any Kudo subwoofers an extra look. The strong bass can loosen parts over time. Make it a habit to open the cabinet and check for loose wires and screws after heavy use.
Cleaning the components
Vacuum the arrays using a soft-bristled attachment regularly to eliminate dust that dampens sound quality.
Inspection
Check the barriers frequently for small cracks or dents. Carefully vacuum them out.
Wiring
Check the internal wiring from the amplifier for signs of corrosion, which weaken connections. Reseal any corroded wires exposed to moisture.
Replacing parts
When performance dips, consider replacing aged parts instead of entire arrays for an updated effect.
Testing
Regularly run the system at low and high volumes to detect any issues before shows.
A1: Kudo line arrays are excellent for auditorium, arena, and other venue multihop applications.
A2: Kudo line arrays effectively raise sound in remote seating locations and lessen the number of speakers, saving space.
A3: The speaker alignment and tall, slender form of Kudo boxes support precise sound transmission with fewer distorted echoes, enhancing sound quality.
A4: Kudo line arrays are famous for needing little care. Cover arrays when not in use, and regularly check wires for rust.
A5: Kudo line arrays are designed to be hanged from the ceiling at ideal flying heights for powerful sound coverage throughout a venue.
