Pinnacle is one-of-a-kind in the crowded market of professional audio. Focused on ease of assembly, lightweight construction, and customisable configuration, Pinnacle promises a seamless experience whether you're setting up for a temporary event or a permanent installation.
Let's delve into the rigging and mounting elements that make Pinnacle the first choice for audio professionals.
LIGHTWEIGHT AND PORTABLE
One of the most significant advantages of Pinnacle is its lightweight construction compared with the powerful quality from its compact components. Each column is designed to be easily handled by a single person, eliminating the need for heavy-duty rigging points typically required for weighty loudspeakers. This feature not only simplifies transportation and set-up, but also reduces labour costs and installation time, making it ideal for both temporary and permanent installations.
Precision-engineered Rigging Hardware
The rigging hardware of the Pinnacle series is a testament to
K-array's commitment to a great user experience. The hardware is designed and precision-engineered to facilitate super-fast assembly, evident in the way columns can be quickly joined together for extended throw coverage. This modularity ensures that sound coverage can be tailored to the specific requirements of any venue, enhancing the overall auditory experience.
PAT
Pure Array Technology
K-array's Pure Array Technology is integrated into all Pinnacle systems. It comprises closely spaced, full-range sound sources with no dedicated high-frequency drivers or low-end passive radiators, resulting in no crossover points and perfect phase response. This design creates a wide horizontal and narrow vertical sound beam, reducing ceiling and floor reflections and enhancing intelligibility in reverberant environments. The focused sound beam ensures consistent tonal balance across distances without the need for delay loudspeakers. PAT columns can be combined together to cover greater distances uniformly.
Customisable and
discreet design
Aesthetics play a crucial role in Pinnacle's design too. The columns are not only discreet but also customisable to any RAL colour. This level of customisation ensures that the loudspeakers blend seamlessly into any environment, whether it's a corporate event, a concert hall, or a house of worship. The ability to choose different colours helps maintain the visual integrity of the venue while delivering powerful sound performance.
In environments where aesthetics is paramount, the compact size and option for custom colours also means you are more likely to be able to position them exactly where you want them for the best audio performance. So often audio quality and coverage has to be compromised by having to put loudspeakers where they are ‘out of the way’, not so with Pinnacle.
EASE OF
ADJUSTMENT
One of Pinnacle's standout features is the ability to join and angle each column to provide bespoke coverage. Unlike other systems that offer a single overall angle for the entire column, Pinnacle allows different angles for each element of the column. This flexibility ensures that sound is directed precisely where it’s needed, overcoming common acoustic challenges and ensuring optimal sound distribution throughout the venue.
Adjusting the Pinnacle columns is straightforward, allowing sound engineers to make modifications quickly and easily. This adaptability is crucial in dynamic environments where changes may be necessary to accomodate different event layouts or audience sizes.
FLEXIBLE RIGGING
options
When it comes to rigging, Pinnacle offers remarkable versatility. Up to eight columns can be flown together, providing extensive coverage for larger venues. Our rigging videos demonstrate just how simple and efficient this process can be. For ground setups, the columns can be floor-mounted on a subwoofer and stacked, ensuring stable and secure installation regardless of the set-up configuration.
INTEGRATED ACOUSTIC MODELLING AND DSP
The rigging and angling capabilities of Pinnacle are further enhanced by K-array's advanced acoustic modelling tools and sophisticated DSP. These technologies work to create a bespoke sound coverage map for each space, ensuring that every listener experiences optimal sound quality. The system performance can be finely tuned to match the unique acoustic characteristics of any venue, providing unparalleled audio clarity and consistency.
PHYSICALLY BETTER
K-array's Pinnacle loudspeakers combine lightweight design, precision-engineered rigging hardware, and customisable aesthetics to offer a versatile and user-friendly solution for both temporary and permanent audio installations.
The ability to easily adjust angles and join columns, along with advanced acoustic modelling and DSP, ensures that Pinnacle delivers superior sound coverage tailored to any venue’s needs. Whether you're a sound professional looking for efficiency and reliability or an event organiser seeking unmatched audio performance, Pinnacle is the clear choice for your next project.
