Genzler Bass Array BA2 115-3 SLT Series 2 Bass Speaker Cabinet

Description DESIGN BACKGROUND The innovative SERIES 2 Bass Array design blends the benefits of all new Italian-designed speakers — a 15” neodymium woofer in a vented bass reflex design with the performance and pattern control of a 4 x 3” neodymium cone-driver line array element.  Additionally, the placement of the Line Array in front of the 15” woofer further provides a type of “single point source” projection—think of it as concentric speakers, one inside of the other, in the same linear plane.  Also due to line array principles the all-important mid and high frequencies have a much wider horizontal dispersion with a more controlled vertical pattern. The benefits of combining both loudspeaker elements in an extremely compact speaker system are exponential for the player: Full, deep, low frequency response from the high efficiency 15” ported woofer. Smooth, seamless, clear, and articulate mid-range to high frequency transition across the audio spectrum. Broad horizontal dispersion far exceeding conventional woofer/tweeter combinations. And now, the NEW SERIES 2 update offers even more advancements with increased power handling, broader frequency response, more detail, mid-clarity, definition, and extended top-end, all in an even lighter-weight cabinet. What this means in the context of performance is the most focused, defined, musically smooth and seamless response possible throughout the cabinet’s entire broad-range bandwidth. An excellent choice when used as a single enclosure or in combination with additional BA straight or slant cabinets.  This offers multiple options to the player to configure their BA2-115-3 SLT stack for the best coverage of the stage or performance venue.
