Compact Two-Way Speaker

SPEAKER
■ Small size and a wealth of mounting options make
the Mackie Industrial SP400 compact, medium power
loudspeaker ideal for use in business music systems.
When used together with the SP800S subwoofer as a
three-way system, a unique internal filter circuit allows
the SP400 to operate as a band-limited complement to
the subwoofer. With the filter bypassed, the SP400
operates as a full bandwidth, stand-alone product.
Speaker zones can be intermixed, adding additional
low-frequency response wherever needed.
■ The woofer is a high-excursion, carbon fiber design.
The high-frequency section is a horn loaded, high-effi-
ciency dome tweeter featuring a Ferrofluid®cooled
coil. Together they provide natural, smooth sound
reproduction and high resistance to weather.
■ Installation of the SP400 is fast and efficient with
two M6, two M10 threaded inserts and a wide variety
of optional mounting brackets. Electrical connections
are made to recessed color-coded, spring-loaded terminals. Wattage taps and voltage adjustments are
selectable by means of two detented rotary switches.
The enclosure is constructed of high-density, scratchresistant polystyrene and includes a protective perforated steel grille and connection cover. It is available in
black or white (SP400W) and may be painted to match
existing environments.
■ The SP400 is a part of Mackie Industrial’s Sound
Palette series, integrated for business applications.
Speakers include full range and a complementary low
frequency system, designed for constant voltage parallel connection. Sound Palette controller-amplifiers pro-
vide complete, sophisticated control operations, optimized for business music systems.
