Mackie SA1521Z 2-Way Active Loudspeaker (500 Watts, 1x15 in.)

For when incredible accuracy and extreme output are a must, Mackie's flagship SAz Series represent the finest active loudspeaker systems on the market. These four newly developed "Super Active" loudspeakers improve upon Mackie's award-winning Active designs of the past with maximized power, re-calibrated electronics, high-definition neodymium drivers, and extensive acoustic design and tuning by the world-renowned Eastern Acoustic Works (EAW) engineering team.

Re-Engineered for Superior Performance
The new SAz Series Loudspeakers start with maximum power. The SA1521z has 500 watts RMS total. And Mackie made sure this power was translated into incredible accuracy with completely re-calibrated active electronics -- including precision crossovers, thermal and transducer protection, and electronic time-correction. These revamped electronics are coupled with new neodymium mid- and high-frequency drivers, delivering greater accuracy and increased output versus their previous ceramic-magnet models, yet weighing significantly less. And as the only premium active loudspeakers with optimized WaveFront horns, the SAz series' natural sound and ultra-wide dispersion are simply unparalleled in its class.

Precision-Tuned by EAW Loudspeaker Engineers
Because a loudspeaker is more than the sum of its parts, the new SAz Series Loudspeakers were developed and tuned exclusively by the EAW loudspeaker engineering team. This is the same team behind high-output loudspeaker systems for the Olympic games, the Super Bowl, and musical tours ranging from Usher to REM to Eric Clapton for over 25 years. The end result of their efforts is that the SAz Series loudspeakers function as highly efficient systems, optimizing acoustic, electronic, and mechanical designs to achieve the highest level of performance and value. Put simply, the new SAz series stand as the finest active loudspeaker systems in Mackie history, rivaling professional passive systems costing thousands more.
