The Electro-Voice® TX2152 is a high power, very high sensitivity,
2-way loudspeaker system that can be used in applications that
require high SPL while maintaining a smooth response. When com-
bined with the TX2181 subwoofer, the TX2152 is capable of serving
as the main PA for small to medium sized live sound venues and
nightclubs with extended LF response.
The TX2152 utilizes the ND2, a high output 2” titanium compres-
sion driver, coupled to a Constant Directivity™ 60° x 40° horn. This
combination results in excellent pattern control in medium throw
applications.
Dual SMX2151 15” woofers have FEA optimized magnet structures
and shorting rings for ultra low distortion and maximum intelligibil-
ity at high SPL levels. The crossover uses very steep 36 dB/octave
slopes with equalization for very smooth response in vocal range,
and a protection circuit for long term reliability.
The TX2152 has a variety of features that make it equally suited for
portable or fixed installation applications. The internally braced,
trapezoidal enclosure is constructed out of a combination of ply-
wood and MDF, and coated with EVCoat
TM
for maximum strength and
durability. The unique grille design is very strong, dent resistant, and
features a rotatable logo. Four way handles allow for gripping the
TX2152 in a variety of positions. Six 3/8” threaded points allow a
single TX2152 to be suspended in a various positions in fixed instal-
lation applications. The recessed input panel with dual NL4 connec-
tors keeps the connectors hidden and allows for closer placement to
a wall or other boundary. The TX2152 is the same width and height
as the TX2181, providing a single column appearance when stacked,
and uses the minimum amount of space when stored or transported.
