| Over many years, our ongoing research has led to the development of the optimum components and methods of implementation for successful LARES installations. These components are used to form the a world's only all digital, fully modular acoustical enhancement system with redundant processing (with distributed redundant processing, a single component failure will not cause the entire system to go down). Any LARES Signal Processor can be re-configured to take the place of any other in case of failure.. The system can be expanded or extended easily - without making existing hardware obsolete. The LARES Mainframe II replaces up to four of the previous versions, and provides improved acoustics software. The LARES 01 Power Amplifier uses over 9600 sq.in of convection cooling to keep dust and dirt away from critical circuits and components. Its design exceeds noise and distortion specifications of class A designs. The LARES 440 loudspeaker is designed for maximum power uniformity over its bandwidth, and when used in LARES systems, provides exceptionally uniform coverage throughout a venue. We have designed other components for specific applications, such as the LCF-599 which is used in venues with very high ceilings. Our LSW 210 and LSW 212 compact subwoofers deliver significant low frequency output in very small enclosures, making them easy to conceal. These products are engineered to integrate seemlessly, and together form a system that delivers unrivaled acoustical sound quality. A complete LARES System incorporates the following components: |

MPS-420 Microphone Pre-Amplifier
 Four independent microphone preamplifiers with outstanding RF immunity, ultra low HF IMD, a dynamic range greater than 120 dB, and they sound incredible!
|

|
LARES Signal Processor
 Modular networkable processing engine that provides signal routing, equalization, delay, dynamics, and matrix mixing.
|

|
LARES Output Processor
 Identical to the LARES Signal Processor, but with no analog inputs. It accepts audio signals from the network, saving cost in large system designs.
|
|||||||||||||||||
|
LARES Network Processor
 Has no audio inputs or outputs, but the same processing engine as the LARES Signal Processor, and has multiple network connections. It is used to provide complex signal routing in large LARES systems.

The LCF -599 is a three way full range loudspeaker designed for use where power delivery over distance is important. It uses the industry's first high-output coaxial assembly that is free of major shortcomings in electro-acoustic performance.
The LCF 499 is a three way loudspeaker that is more compact that the LARES LCF-599, and is designed for use with a separate low frequency enclosure.
The LCF-399 is a raw frame coaxial loudspeaker designed for use in an Atlas Soundolier "Q" series backbox.
The LARES LCF-350 is an standard box type enclosure that utilizes the LCF-399 loudspeaker.
The LARES LCF-288 is utilizes the LCF-399 loudspeaker complemented by an 8" speaker in an enclosure designed for beam mounting in a house of worship.
The LSB-D10 is a compact subwoofer that utilizes dual 10" drivers.
The LSB-S10 is a compact subwoofer that utilizes a single 10" driver.
The LSB-S12 is a compact subwoofer that utilizes a single 12" driver.
The LIN-240 has dual 4-inch inverted basket motors that reduce overall cabinet depth to a scant 2.5 inches. This makes it an ideal choice for surface mounting, as well as flush mounting when architectural restrictions will not allow for the use of conventional loudspeakers.
