Two-way powered loud speaker
Mackie
TH-15A: The TH-15A two-way powered loudspeaker delivers 400W of system power in a rugged design weighing 36lbs. It offers the power, portability and performance required of a compact PA. The TH-15A benefits from Mackie Active technology, which incorporates an active crossover and driver time and phase alignment for optimized system performance. The 15” woofer and 1” compression driver produce great overall sound and low-frequency response for a cabinet of this compact size. A user-adjustable three-band EQ with a sweepable mid lets the user flexibly EQ the system for the application at hand. This is a great feature for smaller setups that may not have a ton of outboard equipment.
