Atlas Sound ALX-40D-B 40-Speaker Column Array (Black)

Engineered for Highly Reverberant Venues

The ALX‑40D‑B is a 40-driver digitally steerable column loudspeaker system designed to excel in acoustically complex environments. From massive terminals to tall-walled houses of worship, this loudspeaker targets its output precisely where it's needed—toward the audience—improving speech intelligibility and minimizing sound reflections. Built with beam steering technology and advanced processing tools, it is a scalable solution for high-demand installations.

Precision Sound Control with Individual DSP Per Driver

Each of the 40 full-range transducers in the ALX‑40D‑B is powered by a dedicated amplifier and processor. This enables exceptionally detailed control of vertical beam shaping, delay settings, and acoustic center positioning. Whether you're targeting a flat seating area or a tiered audience, this column array can adapt its sonic footprint to maximize coverage while maintaining consistent SPL levels.

Supports Dante, AES, and Analog Audio Inputs

Built-in compatibility with Dante, AES/EBU, and traditional analog input methods gives integrators maximum flexibility during installation. With native IP networking, there's no need for additional interface boxes or converters. You can deploy the speaker into modern AV over IP environments or legacy audio systems with equal efficiency.

Integrated Control and Telemetry in One Platform

The ALX‑40D‑B integrates beam steering control, system diagnostics, and configuration management into one software package. From real-time adjustments to preset recall and health monitoring, everything is handled within the AtlasIED software ecosystem. The system can also be remotely controlled via UDP commands for external automation or emergency override.

Modular Architecture with Clean Visual Design

Housed in a corrosion-resistant aluminum chassis, this black column array blends into contemporary venues while keeping its physical footprint discreet. Its modular design allows for simplified stacking or mounting as needed, using the included L-bracket kit. This combination of compact form and versatile configuration makes it well-suited for both new construction and retrofit applications.

Reliable Performance for Emergency and Safety Use

Designed to meet international voice evacuation and emergency communication standards, the ALX‑40D‑B is an ideal choice for safety-critical facilities. Its low latency, accurate beam targeting, and clear speech reproduction ensure that vital instructions are heard clearly in the first instance. It also integrates seamlessly with AtlasIED’s GLOBALCOM GCK notification software.

Suited for Complex Acoustic Installations Worldwide

From transportation hubs and government buildings to multipurpose auditoriums and lecture halls, the ALX‑40D‑B provides scalable, networked audio reinforcement. It supports multibeam operation, 24 preset configurations, and acoustic center adjustment across the entire speaker column—offering installers and consultants an exceptional level of control.
