Fohhn hybrid line array system, white
The compact and high-performance Fohhn® Linea LX-500/501 line array systems enable perfect speech transmission, even in difficult acoustic conditions. The tightly controlled sound dispersion characteristics of the speakers mean that unwanted reflections from the ceiling or floor can be avoided, significantly improving speech intelligibility. Complex microphone configurations can also be used without problems.
Each passive two-way linear speaker system LX-500/501 has a power capacity of 700 W at 8 ohms, housing 4x 6.5-inch speakers and 4x 1-inch compression drivers with Fohhn® waveguide. A dispersion of 100° x 20° (H x V) ensures that sound is transmitted directly to the audience, whilst floor and ceiling reverberations are significantly reduced, thus improving sound quality and speech intelligibility. Each speaker weighs only 23 kg, offering a practical solution for use in various performance situations.
Primarily designed for fixed installation, the LX-500 is equipped with an 8-pin Phoenix terminal. Its elegant design and birch plywood housing (metal-reinforced) are suitable for installation in various modern and historic environments. Its mobile counterpart, the LX-501, features two Speakon connectors and includes integrated handles at the top and bottom. The speaker housing has additional PU coating to help resist the rigours of touring. Quick to install, with easy tripod use, the LX-500/501 offers an efficient system with genuine line array qualities.
The LX-500/501 are both fully compatible with the Fohhn system concept. The LX-500/501 can be effectively paired with the XS-30 or XS-4 active subwoofer, forming the essential components of Fohhn's new Linea Live IV system. The Linea LX-500 speakers are superbly manufactured and totally convincing with their elegant design and excellent sound quality. They are exclusively equipped with state-of-the-art neodymium speakers. Their slim and rounded housing is made from high-quality birch plywood, waterproofed and reinforced with aluminium. All standard RAL colours are available on request. Accessories for tripod use or suspension are also available, enhancing the professional performance of the speakers.

The optional VLX-600 flying adapter enables quick and safe mounting of LX-500/501 speakers on a structure and optimal positioning. An optional ring eyelet allows rear attachment of a safety cable to comply with international regulations. Used with a tripod, the optional SA-8 allows precise adjustment of the line array's sound directivity for optimal audience coverage. 8 M6 threaded inserts and 2 M8 are included for attachment to ring eyelets and suspension points.
Linea LX Speaker Control
Linea LX Speaker Control
We always integrate a sophisticated passive filter with electronic high-frequency protection so you can use the LX-500/501 with any professional amplifier. For maximum sound performance and operational reliability, we recommend our digital DSP amplifiers (e.g., the D-2.1500). Its integrated DSP technology includes a number of factory speaker presets. These ensure total operational reliability and superb performance at any sound pressure level. Programmable audio tools, such as the 10-band parametric equaliser, enable quick adjustments to suit room acoustics and any associated microphone configuration. All DSP functions can be performed remotely using a laptop.
DSP Technology
Fohhn® DSP processor technology perfectly modulates the Linea LX-500/501 and Fohhn subwoofers. Fohhn digital signal processors are integral components of Fohhn active subwoofers, Fohhn DSP amplifiers and Fohhn DSP controllers. DSP-controlled Fohhn devices can be remotely operated from a central location in the room or on stage via intuitive remote control units. Fohhn thus offers a perfectly matched sound system that meets all the requirements of a modern speaker system in terms of design, sound quality and ease of use in every respect.

We have been developing and researching high-quality line array speakers for many years. Our goal is to incorporate the advantages of modular line array systems into compact systems that are easy to implement. The key to achieving these goals was the development of an entirely new system that reproduces live signals at high levels and combines all the advantages of a modular line array system. The column-shaped speaker design was the logical consequence. However, to achieve maximum sound quality at high volumes with the new design, powerful mid-bass speakers combined with horn compression drivers had to be used. The use of a waveguide with directivity specifically adapted to the mid-bass array was a crucial factor in achieving consistent dispersion in the high frequencies.
The Fohhn Linea LX series systems have a hybrid design based on a combination of classic two-way speakers and modular line array, and incorporate the functional advantages of both principles. Whilst on larger line arrays, the compression driver, waveguide and horn are always arranged one in front of the other, this configuration was not possible on the LX series due to the shallow depth. An extremely complex project lasting over a year and a completely new approach to developing the Fohhn HWC (Horn Wave Converter) were required to accommodate all three elements in the housing. In the HWC, a waveguide that produces a slightly curved vertical cylindrical wave from the wavefronts of four individual 1" drivers has been spatially integrated into a constant horizontal directivity horn to maximise usable sound pressure. The waveguide was the only element that enabled the development of such a narrow system design without requiring modifications affecting configuration or dynamics. From a mechanical perspective, the system's dimensions and weight have been minimised by using appropriate materials for the housing, magnetic system and other components.
Linea LX: An Overview of Key Benefits
First-class sound with excellent dynamics
Whether used for full-throttle live music and DJ events or demanding vocal applications, Linea LX systems ensure superb sound quality at any speaker level.
Even sound distribution with Fohhn hybrid line array technology
Compared to conventional systems, sound is distributed much more evenly throughout the room, with a pleasant effect at the front and clear, consistent sound right to the back.
Excellent speech intelligibility
Sound can be specifically directed towards the audience, avoiding unwanted reflections from the ceiling or floor. For the listener, the result is clear and pleasant. Speech intelligibility is significantly improved.
Perfect integration into room architecture and stage sets
The elegantly designed speakers integrate extraordinarily well into their environment. They will not interfere with stage sets or camera shots.
Undisturbed listening
Feedback is rarely a problem, even with complex microphone configurations.
Easier transport and faster installation
Linea LX speakers are equipped with lightweight and state-of-the-art neodymium speaker technology. Conveniently placed handles ensure quick and safe installation. The compact dimensions of the speakers reduce the space required for storage and transport.
