•1•
WINTER NAMM SHOW, ANAHEIM, CA, January, 2013 —HK Audio(booth 6440)has expanded its Elements line of modular portable line array, with new Elements Plus modules. The new modules dramatically expandthe capabilities and applications the Elements system was originally designed for. They also reduce the number of components needed for fixed installs, all with the same great sound Elements is known for.
The Elements Systemmerges the benefits of modern line array technology with the portability and easy handling of ultra-compact P.A. systems. Users can configure a system for any situation withcomponents that are lightweight, compact and easy-to-combine.With the proprietary E-Connect integrated signal routing system, even the largest setup is performance-ready in just a few minutes with minimal cabling. Elements can be configured for anything from intimate speaking engagements to multi-instrumental concerts. Due to their modular nature, Elements systems can be expanded as needs change, or quickly reconfigured for specific tasks.
The new Elements Pluscomponents are:
E835 - This elegant mid/high unit, based on line array technology, is made from extruded aluminumand provides a rich, even sound field. It’s loaded with eight speakers and can handle 300 watts at 8 ohms impedance.Designed to provide even greater flexibility when setting up larger systems, the E835 minimizes the number of mechanical connections needed, while providing greater power than the existing E435 (four speaker unit), but they both share identical design and tuning, for seamless integration in the same system.
E210 SUB A–This powerhouse subwoofer comes equipped with two 1,200-watt amplifiers. Power amp number one drives two internal 10” woofers, or can split power between itself and an identical passive sub (SUB1200). The second power amp delivers up to 900 watts at 4 ohms to drive up to three E835s (or six E435s).
E435 Install Kit – The Elements Install Kit facilitates simple and inconspicuous wall installation. It consists of two modified E435 mid/ high units, complete with mounting yokes.Additional E435s or E835s can be sandwiched in for a longer line array and better coverage. An Elements system can be adjusted on mounting yokes up to 180° horizontally,then easily and quickly locked into place.
E435 A Install Kit - The active version of the Install Kit consists ofthe one custom E435 mid/high unitand an EA600IL 600-Watt amplifier, with mounting hardware. This turns it into an active array that can power either an additional three E 435s or a combination of one E435 and one E835.

E835 – Mid/High Unit$699.00
E435A Install Kit $1099.00

About the Line Array Technology in Elements
In addition to dynamic subwoofers, Elements systems use multiple smaller speakers – a line array – to deliver even coverage and a uniform sound level. The precise 70° dispersion angle minimizes unwanted reflections, providing a coherent sonic image that helps to eliminate feedback. Musical quality and speech clarity are both greatly improved.
