Your Radio Shack PA-115 15-Inch 2-Way
Speaker is designed to deliver uniform
sound dispersion with excellent sound
quality. Your speaker’s protective corners
and carrying handle make it portable, so
you can use it anywhere you need it. It is
ideal for clubs, schools, churches, confer-
ence rooms, auditoriums, and other loca-
tions that require controlled sound
coverage.
The PA-115’s 15-inch woofer and piezo
horn tweeter make it suitable for voice or
music. Its
1
/
4
-inch phone jack and two ter-
minal posts make it easy to connect to any
amplifier. You can connect two PA-115s
to a stereo amplifier for stereo sound.
SPEAKER PLACEMENT
An ideal speaker system covers the listen-
ing area with a consistent volume level
without reverberation (echo) or “dead”
spots (areas without sound).
To cover a wide area, you might need one
or more additional PA-115s. If you use
more than one PA-115, overlap the
speakers’ projection areas to prevent
dead spots.
CONNECTING THE PA-115
Note:
Be sure your amplifier is turned off
before you make any wire connections.
Using the PA-115’s Terminal
Posts
Use color-coded, two-connector, 18-
gauge or larger speaker wire to connect
the PA-115 to an amplifier using the PA-
115’s terminal posts.
