Owner's Manual 22. Rigging Precautions: When mounting or suspending loudspeaker enclosures, it is essential that load ratings, rigging techniques, and special safety considerations be appropriate for the installation. Use only the Contents mounting/rigging points on the loudspeaker enclosure intended for this purpose. The user must determine the load requirements, dynamic loading, and any other contributing factors affecting the loudspeaker IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 2 installation. The user must determine the proper design factor for INTRODUCTION 3 specific applications and the required load rating of the connection to FEATURES 3 structure. Comply with all applicable federal, state, and local regulations.

HD1521 GRAPHS AND DIMENSIONS 14 HD1521 LIMITED WARRANTY 15 Introduction Features The HD1521 Powered Loudspeaker represents the first step into portable high-definition live sound, providing precise, articulate full-range sound at the high-output levels demanded of modern PA systems. Two Class-D Fast Recovery™ amplifiers efficiently drive 1600 Watts of total system power, providing maximum output with minimal distortion. True high-definition sound is possible thanks to an arsenal of technological innovations including our patented acoustic correction processing that was previously only available on high-end stadium touring systems. This complex processing, along with a phase-coherent electronic crossover and transducer time-alignment provide unparalleled acoustic accuracy that has to be heard to be believed. The 15" neodymium woofer and heat-treated titanium compression driver are custom designed by the award winning engineering team at EAW, delivering the ultimate in both quality and performance. A user-adjustable 3-band contour EQ is built into the loudspeaker and features a sweepable mid frequency for precise tonal shaping. All of these high-end components are housed in a rugged, all-wood enclosure that not only protects, but allows for multiple mounting options including flying and pole mounting. The HD1521 brings high-definition sound to the world of portable PA systems. • 1600W of ultra-efficient Class-D Fast Recovery™ amplification • LF 700W RMS / 1400W peak • HF 100W RMS / 200W peak • High-definition audio processing includes: • Revolutionary patented acoustic correction algorithms • Transducer time alignment and phase correction • Precision 2-way crossover • Custom designed transducers by EAW • 15" neodymium woofer with 3" voice coil • 1.75" compression driver with heat-treated titanium diaphragm • User-adjustable 3-band contour EQ with sweepable mid-frequency • Ultra-compact and lightweight • Integrated limiting and protection circuitry • Rugged all wood cabinet (15mm birch plywood) • 12 integrated fly points for horizontal and verti- cal rigging • Stand / pole mountable Part No. SW0739 Rev.
