Frequently asked questions
What is the main difference in coverage patterns?
The AM5215/64-WH has a 60×40° fixed pattern for controlled, narrow directivity. The AM5215/66-WH has a 60×60° rotatable pattern that can be adjusted without moving the cabinet, offering wider and more flexible coverage.
Which is better for a rectangular room or long hallway?
The AM5215/64-WH's narrower horizontal pattern (40°) is ideal for deep, narrow spaces. The AM5215/66-WH's 60° horizontal pattern works better for wider rectangular rooms where broader left-right coverage is needed.
Are the drivers and sensitivity the same between these two?
Both use a 15-inch dual voice coil Differential Drive low-frequency driver and a 38 mm compression driver (2408H-1). Both deliver full 41 Hz to 18 kHz frequency response; the key difference is waveguide design and coverage pattern.
Can either waveguide be rotated or adjusted after installation?
The AM5215/66-WH's Progressive Transition waveguide is rotatable, allowing you to adjust coverage vertically or horizontally post-installation. The AM5215/64-WH's horn has fixed orientation.
