Vision Series

PA152

 

The PA152 is an extremely versatile, medium-throw, 

two-way loudspeaker system offering wide bandwidth, 
low profile, substantial power and value for a variety 
of professional applications that include primary sound 
reinforcement and supplementary fill for large speaker 
systems.

 

The low-frequency transducer is a 15" woofer with an 

efficient 4" voice coil that can provide excellent low-
frequency response along with high power handling. 
The high-frequency section combines a modified 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 benefit is delay reduction, reduced phase shift and 
superior transient response. Dynamic high-frequency 
driver protection is accomplished with a fast-response 
filament 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 configuration. All 
enclosures are constructed using 19 mm void-free, birch 
plywood and finished 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 fixed 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 five 
year limited warranty.
