American Audio ELS-15BT 15" 2-Way Powered Bluetooth / USB / MP3 PA Speaker
When American Audio introduced the ELS15A, it quickly became a favorite for DJs and presenters of all kinds. It was a perfect storm of unbeatable value, convenience, and performance. A DJ's dream come true for ceremony speakers, cocktail/dinner music, lobby, or lighter music away from the dance floor. Taking it to the next level in true American Audio fashion, the same speaker is now available with a wireless Bluetooth and SD/USB MP3 player on board! Now you can put one virtually anywhere you want without the hassle of running an extra cable for input, or "babysitting" an extra mix. Load the MP3s of your choice to an SD card or USB thumb drive, and you're done. Set it up, press play, and walk away. Or, pair up with your Bluetooth enabled device, and enjoy the freedom of wireless connectivity. One word: BOOM!
Of course, you still get all the same features that made the ELS15A famous to begin with. Even though it weighs in under 40 pounds, don't mistake this contender as a lightweight in performance. The built in class A/B amplifier provides ample power to the beefy 15" woofer and 1" titanium compression driver to totally rock a small to medium sized gathering. Also great for presentations, the ELS-15BT can be pole mounted, permanently flown, or used as a floor monitor wedge. You get an XLR or TRS microphone input on channel one, as well as XLR or RCA line level input on channel two, each with individual level control. You also get master volume control, and bass and treble EQ to dial in the sound to your specific tastes and the requirements of the venue. There is also an XLR or 1/4" link output to feed your signal to another ELS speaker or subwoofer. Add in protection against thermal and short circuit overload, LED power and clipping indicators, as well as on/off muting and LF/HF limiters, and you have a rock solid winner that's ready to rock the casbah all night long!
