PRESS RELEASE
New Mackie SA1232 Three-Way Active Sound Reinforcement Loudspeaker
July 25, 2001
Advertisement Mackie Designs Inc. (NASDAQ: MKIE) has announced the addition of the new 1300 watt SA1232 three-way, sound reinforcement loudspeaker to their highly successful Active Loudspeaker product line. Utilizing Active Technology, the SA1232 offers the same exceptional price/performance ratio currently available in Mackie’s highly successful SR1530 and SRM450 sound reinforcement loudspeakers. The SA1232 is a three-way, tri-amplified, horn loaded system that is designed to provide high definition and extreme output level sound reinforcement for club or regional touring bands, club PA systems, or medium to large size churches. The SA1232 features high-quality RCF Precision components including two 12-inch woofers with 3" inside/outside high temperature coil technology, a high-output horn loaded 6-inch midrange speaker and a one-inch exit compression driver mounted on a wide dispersion, 90° x 40° mid/high frequency Optimized Wavefront(tm) horn design. This unique horn design combines the mid and high frequencies to eliminate unwanted phase shifting. The SA1232 is powered by a unique, integrated amplifier module that contains three separate amplifiers—one for each driver, which together generate a staggering 1300 watts RMS of total power and an impressive maximum peak SPL of 133 dB. Integrated electronics provide electronic equalization, time correction and phase alignment along with complete electronic and component protection circuitry. The SA1232 also includes a single line level control. The Mackie engineered trapezoidal cabinet is designed to withstand Neanderthal-levels of roadie and rental company abuse. How? Mackie molds the top and bottom of the enclosure using a high-impact resistant composite resin. The front, back and sides are constructed of heavy duty, 13-ply Baltic Birch used by fine cabinetmakers and high-end audiophile speaker systems. The weight-balanced SA1232 features two large-grip side handles while top and bottom handles allow optimal portability, set-up and repositioning. The SA1232 has a US suggested list price of $1699.00 and will be available through authorized Mackie dealers in October of 2001. For more information, visit their web site at http://www.mackie.com/.
