B-52 USA Pro MX-1515 pair of PA speakers 2x600Wrms, Pro Cables, Diaphragms

Description: Local Pickup - B-52 USA Professional MX-1515 PA speaker pair (2x600Wrms, passive), pro cables, extra tweeter diaphragms. Each PA speaker is equipped with two 15" woofers and a horn tweeter. These speakers never saw more than 300W RMS (limited by the amp driving them); they were mostly used at less than 100W musical. Speakers are broken in and sound better than new. With room and loudness corrections, they work fairly well for critical listeners and reproduce a wide dynamic range with decent transparency, even with classical music. The sound was excellent while driven by an electric piano, guitars or a 4-string bass. There are several professional upgrades made to the original cabinets as follows: Upgraded the original tweeter drivers to the robust 1.7" voice coil Selenium Pro D220Ti-8 (titanium, 8 ohms, 160W musical program - or 80W RMS max, 1kHz to 21KHz frequency response, Brazil made). This also improved the perceived sound definition with musical content. Installed reversible speaker fuses for separate protection of tweeters and woofers. Mounted 4 double-wheel casters (2 with brakes) on each cabinet (2x Middle Atlantic RKW Caster Kits), for a total of 6 casters per box. Added acoustic damping material inside the cabinets. To the upgraded pair we added 2x 32ft heavy duty Dayton Professional Speaker Cables (11 gage, 4 conductors each) with 4-pole Neutrik SpeakOn connectors. These are expensive but dependable cables made in the USA, with a 0.53in external diameter and 14lb weight, robust, flexible and low loss. With these cables one can take both the high power and sound quality across the stage. Provided are also 2 new Selenium Pro diaphragm replacements (RPD220Ti-8, Brazil). From the manufacturer: The B-52 MX-1515 speaker from the MX-Series combines substantial SPL handling and accuracy from a very compact 2-way cabinet. The 1" exit titanium compression driver delivers smooth and detailed highs while the dual B-52 15-85 woofers produce tight, punchy low end. The MX-1515 audio speaker can be used as a stand-alone system or in combination with the MX-18S subwoofer. The B-52 speaker is designed for live sound, small venue installations and mobile DJ/KJs. B-52 components include high-performance loudspeakers and 1" exit titanium diaphragm compression drivers. Each rugged cabinet features metal bar handles, 16-gauge perforated steel grille, rubber feet and protective metal corners. Input connectors include 2 - 1/4" metal phone jacks and a genuine Neutrik NL4 connector. Each speaker enclosure is finished with impact-resistant black carpet.
