Passive Line Array Element
Wharfedale Pro WLA-112 is a 12-inch coaxial hybrid curvature array element designed for professional touring and fixed installation systems. It delivers high-output, controlled coverage from a compact passive enclosure with integrated rigging for flown, ground-stacked, or pole-mounted deployment.
Wharfedale Pro WLA-112 Competitive Differences
- Coaxial 2-way design with Beyma driver for coherent point-source performance
- EVO-Fold waveguide delivers controlled 100° x 20° nominal coverage
- 450W continuous, 900W program, and 1800W peak power handling
- 133dB max SPL for demanding touring and installation applications
- Integrated 3-point rigging with flying, ground, and pole deployment options
Wharfedale Pro WLA-112 Description
The Wharfedale Pro WLA-112 is part of the WLA-1 System and is built for applications where output, precision, and consistent coverage are required. Its coaxial 2-way configuration helps reduce phase and spacing issues associated with traditional separated-driver designs.
At the core of the WLA-112 is a 12-inch Beyma ferrite LF driver with a 4-inch voice coil, paired with a compression driver using a 2.87-inch high-frequency voice coil. Together, the system delivers 450W continuous power handling and a maximum SPL of 133dB at 1 meter.
The EVO-Fold waveguide supports smooth horizontal and vertical dispersion, while dedicated FIR preset support helps provide phase-coherent response. This makes the WLA-112 suitable for live sound companies, production providers, venues, houses of worship, and installed performance spaces.
The birch plywood trapezoid cabinet features a black Tough-Tone finish, powder-coated perforated steel grille, multiple handles, and integrated rigging hardware. Deployment options include flying, ground stacking, and 35mm dual-angle pole mounting.
