AIRLINE LA-Series
Our commitment to advanced technology
AIRLINE LA-Series line array systems present our commitment to advanced technology offering high fidelity sound, even wide-dispersion characteristics and extreme high spl optimized for use in professional touring applications such as open air concerts, festivals and arenas as well as sound installations in stadiums, houses of worship, large clubs, theatres and musicals.
At the heart of the Coda Audio AIRLINE LA-Series LineArrays is the unique 4-inch planar wave driver. Coda Audio developed a unique driver technology to radiate a coherent planar wave front from a rectangular piston without internal diffraction for superior dispersion control and high fidelity sound. The driver contains a high energy neodymium magnet system and a unique annular ring diaphragm. The ring diaphragm works similar as a wound 140 mm long ribbon diaphragm providing linear frequency response up to 20 kHz.
The advanced driver design allows perfect acoustical coupling of individual units to create a virtually continuous and truly coherent line source.
The AIRLINE LA12 is a 3-way symmetrical high output line array module, designed for large venues where high fidelity sound and outstanding intelligibility is required.
State-of-the-art drivers
Low: The cabinet contains two 12? neodymium ultra low distortion cone drivers covering the 50 Hz ? 400 Hz range. The double 12? long excursion drivers contain high flux linear motors with triple demodulation rings for ultra low distortion and increased power handling.
Mid: Our goal was to generate very high resolution and high dynamic range. To achieve this we developed a special transducer which works in the mid range as a pure piston without the breaking up modes typical for direct radiating small cone drivers. Another aim was to increase the sensitivity and get outstanding headroom in the very important middle range. The AIRLINE LA12 contains four 3.5? voice coil neodymium mid range drivers with unique ring diaphragms covering the 350 Hz ? 1700 Hz range. Loaded to advanced hyperbolic lenses they achieve very high sensitivity of 116 dB 1 W / 1 m above 300 Hz. This means that the drivers need less power to produce enormous high spl and work almost at less than 10% of their nominal power handling. Therefore the ability to reproduce peaks is unique and is practically only limited by the electronics. This patented design is a result of extensive dedicated research and development resulting in near zero power compression, dramatic improvement in dynamic response, clarity and transparency.
High: The three 4? HF planar wave drivers contain unique annular ring diaphragms to radiate a coherent planar wavefront without internal diffraction. This distinctive technology allows perfect acoustical coupling for superior dispersion control and high fidelity sound.
Coherent wavefront
The tri-axial V-arrangement of the low, mid and high frequency drivers ensures coherent coupling between all components. The high frequency planar wave drivers are mounted in the middle, close to the mid-range hyperbolic lenses. The twin 12? drivers are optimally placed to provide a constant horizontal directivity above 200 Hz. This arrangement combines the energy produced from all 9 transducers to perform as a single source achieving a coherent and uniform wavefront.
Application:
The modules are designed to be used in multiples with a minimum configuration of six. Up to 24 units can be arrayed to achieve extreme high levels needed for the largest venues. The use of SC8 / SC8F subwoofers increases the low frequency response. The integrated rigging system allows quick and easy flying or ground stacking. Arrays may be built straight or curved in various angles to obtain the desired vertical coverage. The Coda EASE Focus simulation software allows you to calculate the perfect setup for every application. Designed for large scale touring and installation applications the AIRLINE LA12 is perfectly suited for open air, stadiums and large theatres where outstanding output capability and low power compression are needed. Applications include sports venues, stadiums, large theatres and large houses of worship, touring and open air festivals.

Efficiency Rating: Level of sound output measured at a prescribed distance with a standard input power. Efficiency rating standard is 1 watt (2.83V at 8 ohms) at 1 meter over a specified frequency range and is measured in decibels.
Equalization: Loosely, any type of relative frequency adjustment. Specifically, the process of changing the frequency balance of an electrical signal to alter the acoustical output.
Equalizer: A component designed to alter the frequency balance of an audio signal. Equalizers may be graphic, parametric, or a combination of both.
Fade: A gradual increase in audio, i.e. a fade-up, or a gradual decrease in audio, i.e. a fade-down.
Feedback: The transmission of current or voltage from the output of a device back to the input, where it interacts with the input signal to modify operation of the device. Feedback is positive when it’s in phase with the input and negative when it’s out of phase.
FM: Frequency Modulated.
Frequency: The number of cycles (vibrations) per second. In audio, audible frequencies commonly range from 20 to 20,000 cycles per second (Hz). In video, frequency is used to define the image resolution. Low-frequency video images depict large objects or images. Higher frequencies depict smaller objects (finer details.
Frequency Response: A measure of what frequencies can be reproduced and how accurately they are reproduced. A measurement of 20 to 20,000 Hz, 3dB means those frequencies between 20 and 20,000 Hz can be reproduced no more than 3 dB above or below a reference frequency level.
Full-Range: A speaker designed to reproduce the full range (20 Hz to 20 kHz) of audio frequencies.
Gain: Increase in level or amplitude.
Gooseneck: This refers to a microphone with a flexible neck that is most frequently attached to a podium or lectern. It is designed to allow the speaker to raise or lower the microphone to a suitable height.
Graphic Equalizer: A type of equalizer with sliding controls that creates a pattern representing a graph of the frequency-response changes. Raising sliders boosts the affected frequencies lowering sliders cuts (attenuates) the affected frequencies.
