PreSonus Launches Air XD Wireless Loudspeakers

	The 10", 12", and 15" models feature custom low-frequency drivers paired with compression drivers that deliver up to 134dB SPL with deep low-end and detailed highs, the company says.

PreSonus Audio Electronics, Inc. introduces the Air XD Series: a new generation of loudspeakers and subwoofers aimed at mobile and small-to-midsized venues. Features include Class D amplification with 1,500W for loudspeakers and 2,000W for subwoofers, TWS Bluetooth wireless stereo pairing, onboard mixing, and extensive DSP tuning options with onboard EQ. They are available in 10", 12", 15" full-range models and 15" or 18" subwoofers.

Designed for simple installation, the units can be flown, pole-mounted, ground-stacked, or used as floor wedges. All models feature True Wireless Stereo (TWS) Bridge Mode, allowing users to pair two speakers via Bluetooth to create a stereo system without any additional cabling.

"In demanding live sound environments, loudspeakers need to deliver exceptional performance," says Adrian Haselhuber, VP of PreSonus Hardware. "The new Air XD Series outperforms everything in its class due to its professional-grade audio, reliable connectivity, and intuitive control. These speakers are built road-ready and designed for easy setup and transport, so they don't just keep up with performers, they give them a competitive edge."

The 10", 12", and 15" models feature custom low-frequency drivers paired with compression drivers that deliver up to 134dB SPL with deep low-end and detailed highs, the company says. The loudspeakers feature enlarged voice coils in the low-frequency drivers to ensure more efficient power handling and extended low-frequency response down to 40Hz, the company says, while the PEEK diaphragms in the high-frequency drivers provide precise, ultra-durable performance with clear, detailed highs, the company adds.. Each full-range loudspeaker is driven by 1,500W of efficient Class D amplification and includes onboard DSP presets, ±10 dB EQ, and performance tuning modes for speech, music playback, front-of-house, or monitor use. Additionally, a full-color 2.6" LCD screen makes metering and system adjustment fast and easy. Air XD speakers offer two mic/line connections and an aux input. All Air XD models include Bluetooth streaming with true wireless stereo capability. TWS Bridge Mode provides the ability to pair two speakers wirelessly for a clean, cable-free stereo setup.

Thanks to their advanced DSP, which includes variable crossover filtering, alignment delay, cardioid and end-fire array presets, and the exclusive "Mo' Bass" enhancement, the Air XD subwoofers offer precise tuning and extra punch. Plus, the full-color LCD screen provides easy access to metering, EQ, and system presets. The subwoofers feature built-in Bluetooth with TWS Bridge Mode, allowing the ability to stream music and wirelessly link two units for instant stereo sound with no cables required. Featuring flexible routing options, rugged wood enclosures featuring ergonomic handles and ground-stacking provisions, and caster mounts, AIR XD subs are designed for seamless integration and maximum portability, the company says.
