The Electro-Voice® TX1152 is a high power, high sensitivity, 2-way
loudspeaker system that can be used in a variety of applications
where high quality sound reinforcement is required in a lightweight
package.
The TX1152 utilizes the DH3, a high output 1.25” titanium compres-
sion driver, coupled to a Constant Directivity™ 60° x 40° horn. This
combination results in a smooth response to 20 kHz and excellent
pattern control in medium throw applications.
The SMX2151 15” woofer has an FEA optimized magnet structure
and a shorting ring for ultra low distortion and maximum intelligibility
at high SPL levels. The crossover uses steep 24 dB/octave slopes
with equalization for very smooth response in vocal range, extended
HF, and a protection circuit for long term reliability.
The TX1152 has a variety of features that make it equally suited for
portable or fixed installation applications. The trapezoidal enclosure
is constructed out of a combination of plywood and MDF, and coated
with EVCoat
TM
for maximum strength while still remaining light-
weight. The unique grille design is very strong, dent resistant, and
features a rotatable logo. Four way handles allow for gripping the
TX1152 in a variety of positions, a pole mount allows for placement
on a subwoofer or a tripod. Six 3/8” threaded points allow a single
TX1152 to be suspended in a various positions. The recessed input
panel with dual NL4 connectors panel keeps the connectors hidden
while allowing the TX1152 to be used with the TX1181 subwoofer for
extended sub bass on a single amplifier channel, with no additional
processing needed.
