EAW has expanded its Newport Series of loudspeakers with the NT208L Line Array and NT116S Subwoofer for touring and live productions, installations and outdoor festivals, along with Online Array Assistant (OAA) rigging software, a browser-based tool available for computer or smartphone.
The Newport Series combines high-power integrated amplification with lightweight, durable construction to eliminate extra gear and simplify deployment. It’s designed for fast, intuitive set-up, delivering strong output and coverage from a compact, tour-ready system.
The Newport Series employs high-efficiency class-D amplification within each enclosure, eliminating the need for external amp racks and reducing both transport requirements and set-up complexity.
In addition to the new OAA software, the Newport Series products are included in EAW’s Resolution software libraries for 3D SPL modelling and detailed room optimisation.
‘Newport cabinets use a new EAW horn and patented waveguide technology, while also being engineered to be the lightest in their class,’ says Senior Director of Engineering, Geoff McKinnon. “Even the smallest modules provide high-frequency throw and low-mid punch that typically requires much larger-format, more expensive systems. By integrating the amplification directly into the cabinets, EAW eliminated the weight and footprint of external amp racks. This means less warehouse space and allows you to fit more PA into a smaller truck, reducing labour demands and transportation costs.’
