Answer


Yes. However, maximum vertical coverage is not always the most desirable attribute of a line array system. The decreased vertical coverage of the LA108/LA112 loudspeakers combined with more splay-angle options than the KLA12 allows an array to be better tailored to meet the needs of varying coverage requirements.
