Quick answers about the LA1-UM40E-1, and how it compares.
Column loudspeaker or line array?
- XLA line arrays, LBC3200/00 and LBC3201/00: the premium choice for halls. Several drivers with advanced filtering give an extended listening area: the sound stays even from the front rows to the back, and the beam stays wide (18° to 22° vertical at 4 kHz) instead of narrowing. 190 Hz to 18 kHz, EN54-24 certified, indoor. The 60 W LBC3201/00 is made for large, reverberant spaces such as places of worship.
- Metal columns, LA1-UM20E-1 and LA1-UM40E-1: slim aluminium columns for speech where directivity matters, IP65 for indoor and outdoor use (terminals, pools, factories), designed for voice alarm to EN 54-24.
- MDF column, LA1-UW36-D1 / LA1-UW36-L1: a 36 W indoor column with four drivers, high sensitivity and a wide 160 Hz to 19 kHz range, for speech and music.

| LBC3201/00 | 60 / 30 / 15 W | 91 / 108 dB | 190 Hz to 18 kHz | 22° | 1,200 mm | IP21C |
| LA1-UM20E-1 | 20 / 10 / 5 / 2.5 W | 92 / 105 dB | 240 Hz to 16 kHz | 22° | 478 mm | IP65 |
| LA1-UM40E-1 | 40 / 20 / 10 / 5 W | 95 / 111 dB | 250 Hz to 16 kHz | 12° | 778 mm | IP65 |

The XLA and LA1-UM models take the universal floor stand LBC1259/01 (ask us) for temporary set-ups.
What does EN54-24 mean?
EN 54-24 is the European standard for loudspeakers in voice alarm (evacuation) systems. Certified models show EN54-24 in the banner at the top of their page; the others show Non-EN54 and suit commercial public address and music. For an evacuation system, use EN54-24 loudspeakers throughout.
What do the power taps mean?
Each loudspeaker can be set to one of its power taps, for example 6 / 3 W. Choose a lower tap for small or quiet areas and a higher tap for large or noisy ones. Add up the taps of every loudspeaker on a line: the amplifier must deliver at least that total.
Many 6 W ceiling loudspeakers are tapped down to 3 W, 1.5 W or 0.75 W in the field; in smaller or low-noise areas 3 W is more than enough.
