tect the drivers, recessed steel handles for easy transport, and
high order – low loss biampable crossovers that ensure accurate
reproduction of music sources, Carvin's LS Series loudspeakers
are just what your audience has been waiting for.
The powered LS-A speakers take the guesswork out of selecting
the ideal power source to drive your LS loudspeakers. The inter-
nal amplifiers are perfectly mated with the loudspeaker systems,
making setup and operation easier with less gear to haul. Active
full range systems feature 3 channel operation allowing use as a
standalone PA system with seperate inputs levels for combining
music sources (mixer/mic, instrument/mic, MP3/phone), a mix/
thru switch on the XLR output, and a 3-band EQ with mid-sweep
frequency. Active subwoofers feature a selectable active cross-
over at 80Hz or 120Hz with switchable high pass on the XLR
output. Class-D operation and switchmode technology keep the
amp modules cool running and lightweight. Built-in limiters help
prevent clipping distortion and protect drivers.
Going one step further, all LS Series loudspeaker enclosures
utilize cross grain laminated multi-ply hardwood construction.

Why is this important? Unlike other materials, multi-ply hardwood
LS1502
construction results in a lightweight, rigid enclosure with reduced
LS1502A
flex and sonic coloration caused by cabinet resonance, and the
added benefit of a more structurally robust enclosure designed to
handle the rigors of the road. The rugged black Duratuff™ cover-
ing adds another layer of protection from dents and scrapes. The
Carvin Audio LS Series loudspeakers look every bit as compel-
ling as they sound!
