The powered components have been designed to match the tonal qualities of the passive versions, and to further facilitate the use of both powered and passive components in one system, the powered cabinets are equipped with a parallel 'speaker out' which allows another passive cabinet to be fed.
All full range cabinets come with gain and tone (music/speech) controls and a Mic/Line switch. Furthermore, the integrated active stereo crossover in the Premium PR:O 18 Sub A makes system expansion even easier. The light weight and energy efficient digital power amp is equipped with an RMS/peak limiter and a subsonic filter, providing maximum dynamic headroom as well as optimal component protection; another onstage safeguard is the inclusion of a V-Lock Power Plug which secures the power cord against inadvertent detachment.
The Premium PR:O series comprises two full range cabinets, featuring a 1" driver with 60 x 40° horn and a 12" (PR:O 12) or 15" (PR:O 15) chassis, in addition a bi-functional, feedback resistant cabinet (PR:O 15 X) can also be used for monitoring. The PR:O 18 Sub subwoofer, equipped with a specially-designed system crossover, and the PR:O 12 M floor monitor complete the range.
All cabinets come with professional plywood enclosures and offer stage-proven features as the HK Audio DuoTilt pole-mount (not on PR:O 18 Sub and PR:O 12 M) and ergonomically shaped and positioned handles for easy transportation, the company says.
