Is anyone building the speaker that

DJS, BANDS AND MUSICIANS

are truly asking for?

Can a loudspeaker actually heighten your sense of creativity and accomplishment? Can your thirst for high performance sound – and your need for outstanding value – ever find a home together? Will your next speakers have a real titanium compression driver and the enormous advantages of a real plywood enclosure? With one glimpse, will they remind you of something extremely familiar and, at the same time, some- thing you’ve never seen before? Will your next speakers look, sound and feel as good a year from now as they do the day you buy them? Can all of these things ever find their way into just one line of speakers? They have in CERWIN-VEGA’S INTENSE.

THESURE, THEY’LLCLEANESTP AY RE LLY LOUD, BUT SOUNDINTENSE ALSO HAS

OF ANY SPEAKERS IN THEIR CLASS

The Intense Series loudspeakers deliver performance you demand at a price you don’t expect. The model 152 and 252 enclosures, paired with the 118S cast frame subwoofer, are tailor-made for gigging musicians, mobile DJs, and other portable sound reinforcement applications. The Intense S e r i e s l o u d s p e a k e r s r e - d e f i n e v a l u e d r i v e n performance.

Cast Aluminum Frame For Strength And Durability

The Model 118S features an 18-inch transducer with a cast aluminum frame designed to support the system's huge magnet structure / voice coil architecture, plus the high power handling requirements typically encountered in live sound reinforcement applications. This frame creates a more reliable, robust subwoofer system designed to withstand abuse.

Built For The Road

Designed to withstand the rigors of the road, all enclosures feature heavily braced, 18mm, plywood construction; abrasion-resistant, low pilling black carpet and VegaGripTM handles for easy transport. Bottom line… the Intense Series loudspeakers sound great, look great, and are designed to stay that way.

34mm HF Compression Driver

The 34mm titanium High Frequency compression drivers found in the Intense Series 152 and 252 benefit from an optimized dome geometry and phase plug design that combine to eliminate phase distortion. Coupled with the HighRoad horn's carefully crafted throat contour, the result is controlled directivity [more accurately focused sound] and smooth response.

A Big, Clean Horn When You Need It!

With its 34mm titanium High Frequency compression driver, our HighRoad horn features a larger diaphragm than the competition. You get higher SPL with lower distortion, and since the crossover in the 152/252 runs at lower frequencies, you'll hear improved off-axis response and increased mid-range vocal intelligibility.
