Cerwin-Vega! Introduces P-Series at Musikmesse / Prolight + Sound 2012

Cerwin-Vega! P-Series -- the P1500X and the P1800SX

Cerwin-Vega! introduces its new P-Series professional PA system at Musikmesse/Prolight + Sound 2013, exhibiting in hall 5.1, stand B65. Comprised of two active speaker products, the P1500X and the P1800SX, this latest offering delivers power and bass punch, suited for any sound reinforcement application, from live concerts to public speeches.

The heart of the P-Series is the P1500X, a two-way, bi-amped, full-range bass-reflex speaker. It employs a 15" woofer and high-frequency compression driver, powered by a custom Class-D amp. With a rating of 1,500W, the company says the P1500X is the most powerful PA product in its price class. A proprietary hemi-conical horn provides enhanced sound clarity over an even and wide coverage area. A built-in mixer with I/O connections allows for simple and fast setup, while enhanced EQ, Vega Bass boost and high-pass filters enable exact tuning and exceptional performance for any event. The P1500X is a versatile product that can be used as a single speaker for a small venue, set in pairs for a larger venue needing more coverage and SPL, or side mounted as a floor monitor for a band.

The P1500X's lightweight, robust polymer enclosure includes a two position pole cup with an adjustable mounting point, as well as comfortable ergonomic handles. These features provide users with versatility and comfort. Built-in rigging points and remote volume port make the P1500X ideal for suspended installation.

The P1800SX is a powered subwoofer, employing an 18" woofer with a custom 2000W Class-D amp. The large woofer and amplifier are enclosed in a hardwood cabinet, the combination of which provides a high level of bass punch and extreme low-end response. Like the P1500X, the P1800SX has frequency-shaping controls, a Vega Bass boost and a high-pass filter switch (as a built-in crossover). This ensures that the user has the right amount of bass for a particular venue. While designed for use with the P1500X, the P1800SX can be used for bottom-end extension with competitive products. Additionally, the thru and mix output options allow for system expandability and fast daisy-chain connections between components.
