The ART500 is a full-range two-way
professional passive speaker system that
combines high power, wide bandwidth, and
the reduced weight of a special hybrid
construction for fixed-installation systems. The
15" low-frequency transducer, in combination
with a 2" titanium compression driver coupled
to an integral 80º x 60º constant directivity
polynomial horn, form an extremely powerful
package for any small to medium-sized sound
reinforcement application.
It features dual Neutrik Speakon® input
and output connectors for cascading multiple
speakers. The passive crossover is designed
to reduce heat dissipation and optimize the
power response of the loudspeaker.
The enclosure is constructed of high-
strength polypropylene and multilayer wood,
with M10 threaded inserts on all four sides for
rigging, and an integral locking 1-3/8" socket
in the bottom for mounting on a standard
speaker stand.

Safety First!

Before connecting and using the
equipment, please read this Quick-Start Guide
carefully and keep it for future reference.
