Description
The Avante Audio A15X, part of the Achromic series, is a 15-inch, 2-way active loudspeaker engineered to deliver high-fidelity sound for a wide range of events. Combining powerful amplification with intelligent design, this speaker offers a peak power output of 1200W—comprising 350W Class D amplification for low frequencies and 50W Class AB for high frequencies—ensuring clear, balanced audio reproduction across a broad frequency range of 45Hz to 20kHz.
One of the standout features of the A15X is its integrated digital signal processing (DSP). This allows users to fine-tune audio settings via an intuitive LCD screen, providing multiple presets tailored to various environments and audio preferences. These presets support different applications, from live music performances to speech amplification, enabling optimal sound quality without the need for additional external processing equipment.
Energy efficiency and extended device longevity are also prioritized through the selectable time-out function, which automatically powers down the speaker after a period of inactivity. This feature is particularly valuable in event settings, where speakers may remain powered unnecessarily between uses.
Connectivity options with the A15X are versatile and modern. The speaker is compatible with the Achromic X iOS APP, allowing users to control settings remotely through an iPhone or iPad via Bluetooth 5.0+. This app facilitates seamless adjustments to EQ and presets from a distance, making live sound management more convenient and less intrusive. For direct audio input, the A15X supports balanced female XLR and ¼-inch combo jack inputs, along with two RCA phono inputs, offering compatibility with a variety of audio sources such as mixers, instruments, and media players. The balanced male XLR output also enables easy daisy-chaining to additional speakers or amplifiers.
Designed with durability and portability in mind, the A15X features a high-tech H-PP molded enclosure and a robust 1.2mm steel grill to protect internal components. Weighing just 42 pounds (19.1 kg) and measuring 28.7 x 16.7 x 16.3 inches (728 x 425 x 414 mm), it balances solid build quality with ease of transport. Practical features such as a top handle, dual-position pole mount (0° and 7.5° tilt), and fly points on the top and back enable flexible mounting and secure installation in various venues.
Its sound dispersion characteristics—90˚ horizontal by 60˚ vertical nominal coverage—combined with a peak sound pressure level (SPL) of 124 dB at 1 meter, make the A15X suitable for small to midsize venues including bars, restaurants, lounges, and small nightclubs, as well as for mobile entertainers and event production applications.
The speaker operates on either 120V/60Hz or 240V/50Hz power supplies, depending on country specifications, with a power consumption of 400W. Compliance with CE, FCC, and cETLus safety certifications underscores its reliability and adherence to international standards.
In summary, the Avante Audio A15X is a thoughtfully engineered loudspeaker that combines powerful sound output, smart DSP controls, and versatile connectivity within a durable and portable enclosure. Its blend of professional-grade features and user-friendly controls provides an effective solution for event professionals and venue operators seeking consistent and high-quality audio performance.
