The new ACTPRO Series is an advanced line of made in the USA powered loudspeaker systems that offer the sonic accuracy, power and reliability demanded by todays professional performers. Fuelled by B-52s ultra-efficient Class-G amplifiers, ACTPRO systems deliver rich, clear sound at extreme SPLs. ACTPRO amplifiers employ sophisticated circuitry including acoustically tuned 4th order crossovers, four stages of equalization, a built-in intelligent compressor/limiter and short circuit/over-current protection. An extra high current output stage allows for uninterrupted extended play without risk of thermal shutdown. ACTPRO full-range amplifiers are bi-amped with fully discrete output stages. |

The ACTPRO18S subwoofer features a built-in third-order crossover with High-Pass and Full-Range outputs, allowing easy expansion of your ACTPRO system. All ACTPRO cabinets are built in the USA at our state-of-the-art Los Angeles manufacturing facility. Each model features rugged birch plywood construction, durable, black Warneckeฎ paint finish and 16-gauge wrap-around steel grilles, all designed to withstand the abuse of the road. Custom Celestion loudspeakers and compression drivers are used in all full-range models. The ACTPRO12M is designed to be used as a main speaker or sit as a dedicated stage monitor. The powerful ACTPRO18S 18 subwoofer includes detachable 3 casters. |

PETP-Film diaphragm compression driver
Sophisticated computer modeling was used to optimize the magnetic and acoustic design of
these ferrite magnet compression drivers to achieve outstanding performance and reliability.
A matched wave front phase corrector produces a perfectly coherent sound wave at the horn throat, for a detailed and dynamic mid and high frequency performance.
The polyamide-insulated, copper-clad aluminum voice coil is edge-wound on a glass fiber former resulting in lower distortion and superior power to weight ratio.
A one-piece, PETP film diaphragm and surround optimizes energy transfer for greater efficiency
The unique patented clamping system contributes directly to low distortion performance while improving the lower mid-band response.
