Product Description

The unique EWG design is the result of intensive computer modeling of natural acoustic wave propagation. To provide more acoustically transparent high-frequency pattern control, hard edges, corners, and parallel surfaces were eliminated from the design while still enabling 90 x 60 degree high frequency coverage. The smoother, more "organic" shape of the EWG™ design reduces high frequency distortion and diffraction eliminating acoustic artifacts found in other horn design technologies. The result is smoother frequency response, greater driver efficiency, and improved vocal and instrument reproduction.

Titan™ 15 ACTIVE DESCRIPTIONS

Amplifier:

The Titan™ 15 Active is a self-powered, two-way professional loudspeaker system incorporating a high grade Bi-Amp Class D and Class A/B Amplifiers. The model also has intelligent electronics, such as full protection system: DC, overload, short circuit, thermal, On / Off mute and LF / HF Limiters, which protects the system from overload and allows reliable operation right up to the power limit.

The bottom of the Titan™ 15 ACTIVE provides a convenient built in pole mount socket for easy mounting on a standard 35mm diameter speaker stand pole.

The speaker stand receptacle features a locking screw to ensure stability.

Ten M8 threaded rigging points are provided for a variety of safe flying

configurations with four of these inserts available, bottom-mounted, in an OmniMount® 60.0 bracket footprint.

Mixer and Controls

The Titan™ 15 ACTIVE provides basic mixing functions with a variety of input options. Two inputs with separate level controls and a common equalization section allow for overall balance and tonal characteristic control. Easy interfacing to external mixers and processors provide for easy expansion to larger, more sophisticated systems.
