QSC AP-5152 15" High-Power 2-Way Surface Speaker with M10 Fly Points

The QSC AcousticPerformance™ AP-5152 is a professional, two-way, full-range loudspeaker ideal for a variety of installed sound reinforcement applications requiring higher SPL output and a clean appearance. It uses a high power-capacity, 3" (76 mm) diaphragm compression driver combined with a 15" (381 mm) woofer to deliver exceptional full bandwidth reproduction.

The uniform power-response of the AP-5152 loudspeaker is a result of DMT™ (Directivity Matched Transition), a design approach that matches LF and HF coverage in the cross-over region. Another key to the extraordinary accuracy and flat power response of the speaker is the axisymetric waveguide with uncompromised performance in both the vertical and horizontal axes. The result is remarkably consistent coverage and smooth, accurate reproduction on and off-axis.

The AP-5152 may be used as a passive (full-range) loudspeaker to minimize amplifier channel count or it may be bi-amplified for greater control and performance. To further enhance performance, bi-amp and full-range tunings using QSC Intrinsic Correction techniques are available for Q-Sys and future QSC products.

Features

• DMT™ (Directivity Matched Transition) ensures smooth, coherent power response across the listening plane
• 75° coverage of the axisymmetric waveguide matches natural coverage of the 15-inch woofer at the crossover point for consistent power response
• 3" voice coil compression driver for outstanding high-frequency performance
• M10 fittings offer flexible deployment options for a variety of applications
