Vision Series
PA152
The PA152 is an extremely versatile, medium-throw,
two-way loudspeaker system offering wide bandwidth,
low prole, substantial power and value for a variety
of professional applications that include primary sound
reinforcement and supplementary ll for large speaker
systems.
The low-frequency transducer is a 15" woofer with an
efcient 4" voice coil that can provide excellent low-
frequency response along with high power handling.
The
high-frequency section combines a modied constant
directivity horn with a 2" exit coupled to a titanium com-
pression driver with a 3" coil.
The system includes a high-level crossover network
that features markedly lower (than conventional) induc-
tion values in series with the woofer. We call this inno-
vation LICC (Low Impedance Compensated Crossover).
The benet is delay reduction, reduced phase shift and
superior transient response. Dynamic high-frequency
driver protection is accomplished with a fast-response
lament resistor, chosen to complement the power curve
of the driver. The PA152’s crossover is easily bypassed for
bi-amp or tri-amp (with the PA180SW) operation via an
installer-accessible changeover block. Back panel indica-
tors display the current system setting.
The Mackie Industrial PA152 is a part of the VISION
family of loudspeaker products including full-range,
cost-effective, two-way loudspeakers and complemen-
tary subwoofer cabinets. The two-way enclosures have
a trapezoidal footprint for easy array conguration. All
enclosures are constructed using 19 mm void-free, birch
plywood and nished with a scratch resistant black
coating. Transducer components are protected from the
environment by a heavy gauge metal grille. The VISION
products are eminently suited for xed installation, ready
for suspension, via built-in M10 inserts with metal rein-
forcement and forged shoulder eyebolt hardware.
This Mackie Industrial product is covered by an exclu-
sive, one-time, NO FAULT repair policy in addition to a ve
year limited warranty.
