Based in Valencia, Spain, DAS Audio has been a global touring powerhouse for over 50 years. With the launch of the LARA and SARA systems, DAS Audio introduced symmetrical **self-powered cardioid line arrays** featuring 6,000W of onboard multi-channel Class-D amplification and full-bandwidth rear attenuation.
1. Symmetrical Cardioid Power on Stage
- Dual Rear Rejection Drivers: In both LARA and SARA, dedicated rear-firing low-frequency drivers attenuate stage spill by **over 15 dB across 63 Hz to 200 Hz**, keeping the stage quiet and in-ear monitor mixes pristine.
- Self-Powered Touring Modules: Custom multi-channel Powersoft-engineered Class-D modules eliminate long copper cable losses.
