MACKIE SA1532Z SPEAKER
If you need honest-to-goodness pinpoint accuracy and blistering output, the Mackie Super Active Series speaker enclosures fit that description well. They improve upon past Mackie award-winning active speaker designs with maximized power, recalibrated active electronics, high-definition neodymium drivers, and extensive acoustic design and tuning by the world-renowned Eastern Acoustic Works (EAW) engineering team.
The SA1532z boasts twin 15" long-throw woofers, a 6" mid speaker, and 1-3/4" tweeter backed up by a robust 1,300W of power. Tri-amplification delivers 1,100W to the lows, 100W to the mids, and 100W to the highs. The WaveFront horn maximizes the mid- and high-frequency drivers for ultrawide sound dispersion. Onboard active crossover, time correction, phase alignment, and thermal system protection all work seamlessly to reproduce the signal with the utmost fidelity. The SA1532z System yields a frequency response of 38Hz-20kHz.

The Super Active SA1532z PA speakers are designed to improve upon the award-winning Mackie SA designs of the past with maximized power, recalibrated active electronics, high-definition neodymium drivers, as well as extensive acoustic design and tuning by the world-renowned Eastern Acoustic Works engineering team. These speakers give you maximum sound from a compact footprint, making them ideal for gigging in clubs and touring in the van.
Clean, clear sound from dual 15" woofers, 6" midrange and 1.75" tweeter
The SA1532z 3-way system employs several distinct elements to achieve its amazing accuracy and full, natural sound. Frequencies above 3kHz are produced by a 1.75" neodymium compression driver, while a 6" neodymium midrange transducer operates between 700Hz and 3kHz - eliminating the placement of a crossover point in the center of critical voice frequency range. The SA1532z employs two 15" low-frequency drivers for clean, tight bass. Frequency response for the SA1532z is a remarkably full 38Hz-20kHz.
Unique horn design focuses mids and highs
Additionally, the SA1532z features an optimized wide-dispersion WaveFront horn design - a sophisticated one-piece 90 x 40-degree horn that combines both mid- and high-frequency drivers. Unlike typical mid/high horn designs, the high-frequency section fires slightly downward into the six-inch mid-range driver's dispersion pattern, creating a focused, single wave front with excellent phase and power response characteristics. The resulting 90 x 40-degree dispersion pattern provides open, natural sound for the entire audience, even at extreme output levels - giving the 3-way SA1532z loudspeakers a distinct high-definition signature across the range.
1300 watts of power
The new SA1532z loudspeaker offers maximum power for its class - a massive 1300 total watts! The completely re-calibrated active electronics, which include precision crossovers, level protection and electronic time correction, work in concert with the new neodymium mid- and high-frequency drivers to deliver greater accuracy, increased output, and reduced weight. To ensure maximum structural rigidity, the SA1532z features robust cabinets constructed from 18mm Baltic birch plywood and pressure-injected structural resin.
Super-efficient cabinet design by Eastern Acoustic Works
In addition, the new SA1532z was developed and tuned exclusively by the Eastern Acoustic Works (EAW) engineering team. As a result of their efforts, every model in Mackie's new SA Series range functions as a highly efficient system, optimizing acoustic, electronic and mechanical designs to achieve the highest level of performance and value.
