DAS Audio: Churches for Every Size

The EVENT-30A is a compact line array, not a point source speaker, which means it's designed to be flown or stacked in a vertical row so sound projects further and stays even across a room instead of dropping off toward the back. It runs on a 2000W peak Class D amplifier with 24 bit DSP and FIR processing for a flat, accurate response, and its Smart Self Tuning feature uses infrared sensors so each cabinet automatically detects its place in the array and loads the correct preset. For churches choosing between a simple point source pair and a scalable array, that automatic setup is a real time saver on Sunday morning.

Smart Self Tuning uses infrared detection so each EVENT-30A cabinet identifies its exact position in the array, including top and bottom units, and automatically loads the appropriate long throw or short throw preset. For integrators, that removes a lot of manual configuration during install and reduces the chance of a setup error, since the system determines cabinet count and position on its own rather than relying on the crew to program every unit by hand.

Yes, that's exactly what this scalable church sound system is built for. The EVENT-30A on its own covers small to mid size rooms with clear speech and music reproduction. As your congregation grows or you move into a larger sanctuary, adding the EVENT-S218A subwoofer with its dual 18 inch neodymium drivers gives you the low frequency extension and headroom a bigger room needs, without replacing what you already own.

Yes. Schools and campus chapels often need the same things a church sanctuary needs: clear speech intelligibility for announcements and assemblies, enough headroom for music and performances, and a system that can scale as the space is used for different events throughout the year. The EVENT-30A's compact size and even 90 degree coverage make it practical for auditoriums, gymnasiums used as event space, and multipurpose education buildings, with the EVENT-S218A available if the room needs more low end.

It handles both. A single EVENT-30A is well suited to smaller chapels and multipurpose worship rooms, and its 142dB max SPL and 90 degree horizontal coverage mean it can also be arrayed for larger sanctuary applications when paired with the EVENT-S218A subwoofer for low end support. That flexibility is why this system fits houses of worship of nearly any seating capacity, not just one size of room.

The EVENT-30A runs a high efficiency Class D amplifier platform at 2000W peak, driving dual 10 inch neodymium low frequency transducers and dual M-60 compression drivers through a 24 bit DSP with FIR processing for flat phase response. Coverage is a controlled 90 degrees horizontal down to 200Hz, with a maximum SPL of 142dB. The EVENT-S218A pairs with it for low end, using two 18 inch neodymium transducers in a bass reflex enclosure, each with a 4 inch dual layer voice coil for improved power handling and thermal stability, delivering up to 4500W peak output for extended, controlled low frequency performance.
