A 15″ speaker cone moves a lot of air, so the amplifier driving it has got to be beefy. The Air15’s Class D amp is up to the task, sending up to 900 dedicated low-end watts through the 2.5″ voice coil for rich, powerful bass. The Air15 features a crossover set at 1.6kHz, leaving the 1.35″ HF compression driver free to make the most of its 300W handling only the upper mids and highs. The result is optimal sound quality that live sound gurus were quick to appreciate. Want to simplify your life? Presonus has your “Easy” button. The Air15 employs simple, user-friendly signal processing accessible through a bright LCD display on the rear panel. With its great-sounding presets, you can tailor the AIR15s response for front-of-house, monitor wedge, and music playback/DJ applications. You can also press a button to enhance bass response, generate a warmer audio vibe, and optimize the speaker’s parameters for the human voice/public address. with +/- 10dB bass and trebel EQ and location presets for stand or bracket mounting or flown installations, the Presonus Air15 delivers simple solutions to all your live mixing problems. The most useful pieces of gear are often the ones that are the most flexible. The Presonus Air15 full-range loudspeaker lets you use a variety of input sources, thanks to its multiple connector formats. Each of its two combo XLR mic/TRS line inputs has a Class A microphone preamp, as well as gain control. The 1/8 aux in facilitates use with mobile devices like smartphones and tablets, and when you combine these signals using the AIR15s internal mixer, the balanced XLR Mix output lets you send the signals to other AIR-series speakers.
