FBT HIMAXX 60A Active Speaker 2-way 1350W

With the new HiMaxX series, FBT establishes a reference point on the scenario of 12” and 15” enclosures in polypropylene for sound reinforcement, introducing performance and technical content of a standard unthinkable up until now. FBT HiMaxX takes its place alongside the FBTMaxX series, exalting all the technical features.

The study of a new cabinet in polypropylene, the use of a switch mode power supply and high efficiency power amplifiers and the redesign of the loudspeakers were the activities of the FBT R&D team aimed at maximizing the power weight ratio.

This series comprises three models; two 2-way full-range enclosures in polypropylene, HiMaxX 40 (12”+1”) and HiMaxX 60 (15’’+1.4”), plus a compact  18’’ bandpass SUB in birch plywood (HiMaxX 100Sa).

Compact and light weight, HiMaxX brilliantly solve all the most demanding requests from buffs, musicians and professionals looking for powerful, versatile and very high quality loudspeaker enclosures. Ideal for live and sound reinforcement applications requiring ease of transport, they are also suited to fixed installations, thanks to the cabinets’ format and optional accessories.

GENERAL

The PSA Systems JB-15 is the active variant of the PS-15. This active full range speaker has a built-in amplifier of the bi-amp type and delivers 300 watts RMS. In combination with the active crossover the audio signal is distributed efficiently on a woofer and tweeter. The PSA-15 has a 15-inch woofer, which effortlessly displays the low frequencies, starting at 40Hz. Here he is fed with less than 245 watts. The 1.35-inch compression driver takes it high for his account and get 55 watts of power. This was in fact the RMS power; peaks that are higher are no problem for the amplifier. You are assured of a solid, non-pinched sound.

The PSA-15 has a smooth shaped casing made of polypropylene. A light but very strong type of plastic, which is good for long-term protection of the internal components. In addition, he is very practical, with a built-in carrying handle, M8 mounting points, a 35 mm stand adapter and support for monitor use. The latter is excellent as possible, thanks to the angle of the housing.

The back contains the connections with two microphone inputs (XLR, 6.3 mm jack) and a line input (XLR, RCA). The inputs and outputs are balanced. As per the level can be controlled, there is also a master volume and a two-band tone control devices. The PSA 15 is very suitable for mobile use and permanent installation and can be used as PA speaker and be used as a monitor. Monitor Brackets are included.

The new ETX Powered Loudspeakers family builds upon the industry-leading innovation and 85-year heritage of Electro-Voice audio engineering to offer the most advanced professional portable powered loudspeakers available today.
A versatile high-end choice for live entertainment venues, rental companies, pro musicians and DJs, and installed sound, the ETX Powered Loudspeakers family features three two-way models (10-inch, 12-inch and 15-inch, all with a precision HF titanium compression driver), a three-way model (15-inch with a 6.5-inch MF driver and a precision HF titanium compression driver) and two subs (15-inch and 18-inch drivers).
Positioned above the ZLX and Live X families respectively, ETX Powered Loudspeakers complete a trio of recent EV portable loudspeaker offerings-each of which was designed to bring best-in-class performance to its price point.
