Galaxy Audio PA6SR Powered Hot Spot Monitor with Wireless Lavalier System

Product Description

Over 30 years ago Galaxy Audio pioneered the small PA/personal monitor category with the innovative product called the Hot Spot. Through the years Galaxy has offered groundbreaking designs in both powered and unpowered models. The all new, redesigned Galaxy Audio PA6S is the newest powered model in the Hot Spot line since 1998. While the PA6S has been redesigned from the ground up, Galaxy has kept the basics. The newly designed outer shell has kept the distinctive shape of the original Hot Spot, but with a 21st Century look. The cabinet now uses two specially designed speaker components, the new 155 watt Neolite 6.5 inch Woofer and Galaxy's highly efficient 1.5 inch 60 watt Tweeter.

The Galaxy Audio PA6S takes full advantage of recent improvements in speaker and amplifier technology, making it the lightest, most powerful, and best sounding compact PA system Galaxy has ever offered. New features such as the XLR pass-through on each channel allow independent control of mics without affecting the signal sent to the house PA. A -20dB Pad switch on each XLR input ensures that even the hottest signals will be accepted without overdriving the inputs. An additional 1/8 inch Line input on Channel 2 will accept stereo or mono signals from sources such as tape or digital media players as well as line level instruments.

The new two-way speaker system gives the PA6S a much wider frequency response than earlier models. This means that full-range music, such as keyboards or backing tracks, will come through with solid bass and crisp highs. This enhanced frequency response makes the Galaxy Audio PA6S a great stand-alone PA system for small club gigs as well as lectures and A/V presentations. Plus a simple adjustment of the 3-band EQ can alter the response for singers who love the time-honored accentuated mid-range of the classic Hot Spot vocal monitor. The Galaxy Audio PA6S gives you the best of both worlds.

Neolite 6.5 Inch Woofer

The Neolite 6.5 inch Woofer features a Neodymium magnet mounted on an ABS basket. The high excursion cone and thick surround allow for low frequencies to be produced cleanly. The voice coil gap contains Ferro Fluid to provide advanced cooling and dependability. The Neolite 6.5 inch has a frequency range of 50Hz-8kHz with a sensitivity of 88dB, 1W/1M. Neolite 1.5 inch Dome Tweeter The ST1.5 inch Neolite Titanium Dome Tweeter features fluid cooling and a strong neodymium magnet. The great mid-range quality of this driver ensures clear, intelligible vocals. It has the capability of producing 60 watts of screaming mids and highs. This tweeter is coaxially mounted into an integral phasing plug and horn, to provide a smoother response and even dispersion. The tweeter has a frequency response of 1kHz-20kHz.

Amplifier/Pre Amp

The Galaxy Audio PA6S has a built in 170 watt amplifier designed to handle the most demanding audio situations. This high tech Class D amplifier produces plenty of power to cover a wide variety of applications. This design allows the Galaxy Audio PA6S to function both as a stand-alone PA system and as a high-powered vocal monitor to cut through loud stage volumes. For larger gigs that require more coverage, you may simply patch from the Preamp Output to the main house PA, while using the Galaxy Audio PA6S as your onstage monitor.

The Galaxy Audio PA6S also features a built in 18dB Compressor/Limiter circuit with Compressor and Clip LEDs. The Compressor acts to smooth out transient peaks in the signals, thus improving overall sound quality and increasing apparent volume. The Limiter helps protect the woofer and tweeter from being damaged by amplifier distortion. The Clip LED indicates when a reduction in volume is recommended.
