15" (380 mm) diameter woofer
The ART500 is a full-range two-way
professional passive speaker system that
combines high power, wide bandwidth, and
the reduced weight of a special hybrid
construction for fixed-installation systems. The
15" low-frequency transducer, in combination
with a 2" titanium compression driver coupled
to an integral 80º x 60º constant directivity
polynomial horn, form an extremely powerful
package for any small to medium-sized sound
reinforcement application.
It features dual Neutrik Speakon® input
and output connectors for cascading multiple
speakers. The passive crossover is designed
to reduce heat dissipation and optimize the
power response of the loudspeaker.
