The LR16 is an active-filtered, compact line-array module, featuring double 8” woofers and the RBN601 pro-ribbon driver. With a dispersion of 90° x 10° (HxV), the LR16 offers unparalleled precise projection control and throw in medium to large applications.

The compact size, combined with the weight-saving all Neodymium drivers, leads to a weight of just 29kg / 64lb. making the system very easy to handle.

The FC16 trolley carries three pcs. of LR16; By placing the FC16 trolleys behind each other and linking the (sliding) hinges of the LR16's, a complete "array-train" is assembled on the ground. By lifting the mounted grid, the array comes in upright position; When in "folded position", the correct angles can be set on the LR16 modules. Then the array can be hoisted with correct array-splays to the desired height. Through the FC16, the LR16 mounting is done without any weight lifting.


The GRD16 grid can be used for flying the LR16, as well as stacking an LR16 system; By turning the grid upside down, a stacked system can be build from LR16 modules (also turned upside down).
The GRD16 features four mounting points on top, as well as a centrally placed multi-position mounting bar with 1" diameter holes. All mounting points are prepared for 6.5 ton 3/4" shackles.
The detachable castor wheels can be mounted on the grid, creating a movable stack in just seconds.


The FCGRD16 flightcase carries 2 pcs. of GRD16 grids.


The LR16 is powered and controlled by the ALC4 amplified loudspeaker controller. The ALC offers, in combination with the front-accessible SDP-circuit, dedicated system drive in terms of protection, filtering and power optimizing. There is a choice of analogue or digital processing: Analog SDP or digital DDP processing. The SDP processing has non-adjustable factory settings, which is a “tamper-free”, cost-effective processing solution for non-changing system configurations; The DDP processing offers complete flexibility for perfect system response in any situation, with any system configuration.
(on board: a complete library of Alcons systems and system configurations, with array length compensation and stack/fly adjustment, a.o.).

The ALC’s Signal Integrity Sensing (SIS™) circuit, in combination with the SIS pre-wiring of the LR16, ensures complete cable/connector compensation between the LR16/LR16B and ALC resulting in tight and accurate mid and bass response (damping factor of 10.000 at the LR16’s transducer terminals). SIS also further reduces linear and non-linear distortion.

The LR16B is a high-output bass system, consisting of dual Neodymium long-excursion 15” woofers in double-tuned band-pass configuration. It delivers high quality, high output bass response from a very compact and weight efficient package. The special band-pass configuration offers LR16-matched bass response in full-space (flown) and increased efficiency in half-space (stacked) applications.
LR16B was designed to be used with LR16, in a ratio of 1 unit LR16B on 3 units LR16; For more “heavy” applications (outdoor rock), this ratio may be 2:1.
The easy and accurate mounting system, makes the system quick to set-up in combination with the LR16 line-array module, both in stacked as well as flown configurations.

The FD16B trolley carries one pce. of LR16B; The FD16B is completely compatible with the FC16, thus follows the same procedure as with the LR16. A complete "array-train" including LR16B’s can be assembled on the ground. The FD16B flight trolley comes with a soft-cover for the LR16B.


The LR16 system can be connected through the IO4 connector panel, with XLR-in/link connectors, four NL4 (Speakon) output connections and a three-fase 48Amp power connection with a 3-distro AC block.


Alcons offers a choice of amp racks for one, two or three ALC’s, including the connecting panel. All cases have a rubber-mounted inner rack, heavy duty (braked) castor wheels and roady-proof handles.
