D.A.S. Introduces New Powered Monitors
13.04.2005 Sennheiser U.K

Riding on the tremendous success of its powered systems, D.A.S. has expanded its offering with the addition of two powered stage monitors. The bi-amped SM-12A 12" two-way and SM-15A 15" two-way systems use the latest in power amplifier technology offering a Class D 500 W amp for the low frequency section and a 100 W Class A/B amp for the highs.

The SM-12A utilizes a high efficiency 12" low frequency speaker with a 3" voice coil. The large ferrite magnet structure and pole piece cooling provide high power handling and low power compression. The high frequency section makes use of a neodymium magnet compression driver with 1.5" exit and 3" titanium diaphragm. The compression driver is coupled to a narrow dispersion horn.

The SM-15A's low frequency section makes use of a high efficiency 15" low frequency speaker with a 3" voice coil. The high frequency section, as in the case of the SM-12A, utilizes a neodymium compression driver with 1.5" exit and 3" titanium diaphragm. The compression driver is again coupled to a wide dispersion horn.

The multi-angle enclosure is manufactured from Wisa® Birch plywood and is finished with a durable black paint. The loudspeaker components are protected by means of a steel grille with a fabric backing behind the grille. The fabric provides protection from dust and dirt, and is both acoustically transparent and flame retardant.
