EAW products are continually improved. All specifications are therefore subject to change without notice. Part Number: RD0306 (A) SM159zi May 2005
SM159zi Specifications group · G
DESCRIPTION
Compact 2-way 15-inch Stage Monitor / PA
Less than 17 inches high for low profile applications
Rubber feet included for floor mounting
Passive EQ and crossover for economical single amplifier operation
Foam-backed steel grille for physical and dirt protection
(foam not shown in photo)
The SM159zi is a compact, professional loudspeaker designed for
dual-purpose stage monitor and PA use. Its 15-inch low frequency
transducer generates a strong low end, without boominess. The
smooth HF response and high output capability cuts through stage
sound for quality monitoring and provides good projection for PAuse.
The low profile and compact size are ideal for situations where small
physical size is needed, without sacrificing professional
performance. Integral mounting points accept a third-party, external,
stand adapter for pole mounting, such as the K&M™ 195/8 or
Ultimate Support™ BMB-200K.
Portable usage is enhanced by the heavy-duty enclosure
construction, foam-backed steel grille, and integral handles. The
connector panels on each side have dual jacks for reliable input and
loop through connections.
Applications include use as a stage monitor or as a PAloudspeaker
for band PA, TV productions, corporate events, theatres, houses of
worship, and live music clubs.
Six year warranty.
2-WAY FULL-RANGE MONITOR
