LD Systems CURV 500 ES Portable Array Speaker System

The CURV 500® Entertainer Set consists of a high-performance 10" bass reflex subwoofer and an easily configurable array system with four satellites. Featuring a power of 460 watts RMS and a maximum sound pressure level of 128 dB, the CURV 500® ES Set is the ideal sound system for small events or conferences and meetings.

The compact, transport-friendly CURV 500® is an array system with 4 interlocking satellites, which are operated via a SmartLink® adapter. The elements, only 12 x 12 cm in size, are equipped with LD System's own WaveAhead® technology. One 4" and three 1" drivers provide a coherent and extremely detailed playback with high pressure and dynamics.

The 10" bass-reflex subwoofer houses the Class D power amplifier and includes a limiter, protection against short circuit, overheating, over-voltage, as well as a 4-channel mixer with 16 digital effect presets and Bluetooth®. Combo, and Speakon- compatible sockets offer extensive connectivity options, and the subwoofer features four digital system presets, an M20 threaded flange and three ergonomic carrying handles.

The Entertainer Set can be operated in stereo mode with a total of eight array satellites (max. four on each side). This variant is particularly useful in voice applications, where bass playback is not in the foreground.

Speakers or moderators especially appreciate the clarity, transparency and typical benefits of array systems. With the Power Extension set, the Entertainer Set can provide even more power at any time, especially in the bass range, thus expanding to a high-performance Power Set.

The CURV 500® Entertainer Set includes a subwoofer with a mixer unit, four satellites, SmartLink® adapters, distance bar and speaker cables.
