Danley Sound Labs, the innovator behind some of the most significant acoustic breakthroughs in professional audio history, today announces the launch of Exodus. Exodus is a new modular loudspeaker system that introduces Danley’s proprietary Cohearix Lens Technology to the professional audio market and redefines what Danley’s Synergy Horn technologies can deliver at any scale.
“Exodus is a great blend of acoustical performance, true scalability, and staying consistent with our core from 20 years ago,” said Mike Hedden, chief steward in charge.
The Exodus family launches with two product series: The Exodus 100 Series, a four-enclosure modular system purpose-built for permanent installation, and the Exodus 700 Series, a large-format system engineered for the most demanding stadium and large-venue installations on the planet. Both series are built on the same foundational architecture utilizing Danley’s patent-pending Cohearix Lens Technology combined with Danley’s patented Synergy Horn delivering phase coherence, pattern control, and point-source integrity that have defined Danley’s reputation since its inception.
A New Era in Danley Technology
Cohearix is Danley’s patent-pending acoustic lens technology that allows high-frequency drivers to be placed edge-to-edge within a single enclosure with each bowtie lens segment producing one part of a larger radiation arc that seamlessly combines into a true single point source. The result is an unprecedented density of high-frequency drivers operating without the interference penalties that have historically made high driver count systems a challenge to deploy and a compromise to operate.
Built on the foundation of Danley’s patented Synergy Horn - the technology that first allowed multiple drivers of different bandwidth to behave as a single coherent acoustic source – Cohearix represents the next generation of that architecture. Exodus enclosures utilize Cohearix and Synergy Horn technologies to deliver phase accuracy, pattern consistency, and single-source behavior and extend further than any previous Danley design.
“In a traditional point-source configuration, you have an exploded cluster or a number of boxes that span the front of the stage,” said Tony Incitti, Exodus product manager at Danley Sound Labs. “With Exodus, we can do that with less intrusive sight lines similar to a line array but with the performance of point-source delivering higher fidelity without sacrificing sight lines.”
The Exodus 100 Series
The Exodus 100 Series brings the full capability of Cohearix architecture to permanent installation in four configurable enclosures: the X118 Tapped Horn subwoofer, the X164 (60° x 40°) and X194 (90° x 40°) pattern-controlled loudspeaker, and the X120 (120°) wide-coverage loudspeaker. Each enclosure is engineered to perform as part of a complete Exodus modular system or as a standalone installation giving designers the flexibility to configure exactly what the space requires without the compromise.
As part of the Exodus 100 Series, Danley engineers also created the X094 (90° x 40°) portable loudspeaker bringing Danley’s Cohearix technologies (and technologies used in Danley’s popular Jericho Family of loudspeakers) to a portable loudspeaker.
The Exodus 700 Series
The Exodus 700 Series is built for installations where the stakes are highest and the margin for error is zero. Five enclosures (the X742, X762, and X792 loudspeakers in 40° x 20°, 60° x 20°, and 90° x 20° coverage patterns respectively, the X7CS cardioid flown subwoofer, and the X221 dual 21-inch hybrid Tapped Horn and Boundary Coupled ground subwoofer) combine to form a complete large-format system capable of covering the broadest, deepest, and most acoustically demanding venues in the world. A particular standout is the X742 loudspeaker. During initial testing of the X742, the loudspeaker can reach max SPL of 165 dB placing it among the loudest professional loudspeakers ever designed for musical and installed applications.
“Unlike the traditional array, we’re not dependent on the number of boxes to create our pattern,” said Skip Welch, director of pro audio at Danley Sound Labs. “No matter the box or coverage pattern, that box can operate on its own or as part of the modular cluster.”
“It’s kind of an all-purpose tool set,” said Tom Danley, director of research and development. “Plus, Exodus offers complete rigging that people are used to.”
Availability
Exodus will make its public debut at InfoComm 2026 in Las Vegas June 16 – 19, 2026 (Booth N6371 & Demo Room N206). Additional product information, specifications, and system configuration resources are available at exodusseries.com.
