Biamp Community IP8-1152/26 High Power 15-Inch 2-Way 120 X 60 Speaker (Black) - 911.1090.900

Product Overview

The Biamp Community IP8-1152/26 is a high-power 15-inch two-way point source install loudspeaker for demanding indoor sound reinforcement. From the I SERIES Point Source 800 family of passive install loudspeakers, it combines a neodymium 15-inch LF driver with a rotatable HF waveguide for 120 x 60 coverage. It suits houses of worship, auditoriums, and large multi-purpose rooms requiring high SPL, low distortion, and precise pattern control.

Product Description

The IP8-1152/26 is part of the Community I SERIES Point Source 800 range, engineered to support integrators and consultants both acoustically and mechanically. FEA-optimized linear suspensions, high-flux neodymium motors, and integral demodulation rings ensure precise control and very low distortion at high SPL levels. The custom long-excursion LF driver delivers deep bass and balanced midrange in demanding applications, while the HF compression driver uses a ketone polymer (non-metallic) diaphragm for natural, transparent sound. The rotatable 13-inch (330 mm) HF waveguide provides well-defined coverage and a smooth off-axis response that enhances arrayability. Individually voiced crossovers permit horn patterns to be mixed throughout an installation, and user-selectable single-amp or biamp operation expands flexibility.

Key Features

• Neodymium 15-inch LF driver — A high-flux neodymium motor with demodulation ring and 3-inch voice coil delivers deep, low-distortion bass at high output.
• Non-metallic HF compression driver — A 1.4-inch exit, 2.6-inch voice coil neodymium driver with ketone polymer diaphragm reproduces highs naturally and transparently.
• High-output, low-distortion design — Linear suspensions and demodulation rings maintain clarity at very high output levels.
• Rotatable HF waveguide — The rotatable waveguide and individually voiced crossover support mixed coverage patterns across arrays.
• Single-amp or biamp operation — Each enclosure can be driven single-amp or biamp to match the amplifier and processing design.
• Modular bracket compatibility — Low-profile modular bracket systems create elegant arrays with simplified installation.

Typical Applications

• House of worship
• Auditorium
• Multi-purpose room

Frequently Asked Questions

What amplifier power suits the IP8-1152/26?
The loudspeaker handles 800W continuous at 8 ohms; size the amplifier to the impedance and headroom required by the venue.

Can patterns be mixed across an array?
Yes. Individually voiced crossovers and the rotatable waveguide allow different horn patterns to be combined within one installation.

What coverage pattern does this model provide?
This model provides a nominal 120 x 60 (H x V) coverage pattern.
