Grund Audio Design Announces

Council Bluffs, IA – July 2014… Grund Audio Design, a pioneering manufacturer of loudspeaker and signal processing products for the audio professional, is pleased to announce the expansion of Altar Clarity (AC) Series loudspeakers with the addition of five new active models: the AC-10A, AC-12A, AC-15A, AC-10MA, and AC-12MA. As a sound reinforcement solution for the 200 - 400 seat House of Worship market, smaller meeting / presentation facilities, and similar applications where live music reproduction demands higher output performance, the new active AC Series loudspeakers carry the benefit of power amplification that is optimized for the enclosure along with streamlined system cabling.

Manufactured in the USA, all AC Series loudspeakers use 13-ply Baltic Birch enclosures and provide component concealing grilles for visual aesthetics and protection. Color options include black, white, and unfinished (for painting or staining) for all models.

For the self-powered (active) AC Series models, power ranges from 200-600 watts. The amp’s multichannel inputs include an XLR balanced microphone input, a ¼-inch line input, and RCA inputs for use with CD players and similar equipment. Any two sources can be mixed internally. With their durable, built-in power amplifiers, the AC Series active loudspeaker enclosures make a great sounding, versatile sound reinforcement solution.

Like the passive AC Series models, the new active models employ true, two-pole crossovers and pattern-controlled rotatable horns for accurate and smooth sounding musical performances and the spoken word.

The AC-10A and AC-12A are available in several versions to accommodate various applications: no handles or pole mount, with U-Bracket mounting, with three 2 x 2 flypoints, or equipped for wall mounting. The AC-10MA and AC-12MA are available without handles or pole mount. The AC-15A two-way enclosure is available without handles or polemount or with three 2 x 2 flypoints.

Frank Grund, President of Grund Audio Design, commented on the company’s new additions to the Altar Clarity product line, “The expansion of our Altar Clarity series with the new active models provides customers with greater choice than ever. Now, if the customer already has access to power amplifiers from, let’s say, a previous installation, the passive models make a great choice. For those without power amps, the active models not only streamline the installation process by simplifying system cabling, they also ensure the prospective customer that the amplification is ideally matched to the transducers—and you don’t have to find a place to house the amps!”

A comprehensive range of accessories, including eyebolts, wall mount brackets, and more are available. For pricing information, please contact Grund Audio Design. Availability: Now.
