IS Series
Linear Column
Loudspeaker
Systems.
High-quality
speech and
music, sleek
profile and
wide, yet
consistent
coverage.
S column speakers are a cost-
I
effective way to provide precise
vertical dispersion, and consistent sound levels front-to-back of
a venue… especially when
combined with Ashly amps and
processors that incorporate
Protēa or AquaControl™ software
(see page 4).
They fit perfectly next to
flat-screens in conference
rooms. Combined with an SP
12.1P sub, you can create an
effective ”system on a stick” for
churches, wedding receptions
and corporate events.
Both models ship with flushmount brackets. Two IS speakers
can be joined with an optional
joining bracket. Pole and tripod
mounts are also available.
Available in Black and White.

IS Series
S Series are slim column array
I
speakers designed to deliver
high-quality speech and music
in venues that require high
intelligibility, low physical profile
and wide, yet consistent coverage.
They are a cost-effective way
to provide vertical pattern control,
and consistent sound levels frontto-back of a venue… especially
when combined with Ashly amps
and processors that incorporate
Protēa or AquaControl™ software
(see next page).
IS columns fit perfectly next to
flat-screens in conference rooms;
combined with an SP 12.1P sub,
you can create an effective "system
on a stick" for churches, wedding
receptions and corporate events.
Their durable all metal
enclosures will withstand the
rigors of portable use, as well as
installation and an impedance
switch (8 Ω/32 Ω) allows use
for both 2/4 speaker or multiple
speakers per channel (i.e.
distributed) configurations,
without loading down the
amplifier and without the need for
transformers.
Available in two configurations:
IS 2.8P 2” x 8 Column and IS 3.8P
3” x 8 Column, they are designed
to provide optimum performance
when used with Ashly’s Protea or
AquaControl-based DSP.
Two speakers may be stacked
(using the optional plate) for
additional throw where needed.
Add the SP-12.1P 12” Subwoofer
for a kicking low-frequency
response.
Flush wall brackets are supplied.
Other mount options are also
available. Available in Black or
White
