1.5AM PLUS

General Description

The Clair Brothers 1.5AM+ is the next generation
single 15” coaxial stage monitor with incredible
low frequency output. The engineering behind
the 1.5AM+ combines the Clair tradition of great
stage monitors with the successful Clair coaxial
horn technology developed over the past 5
years. The result is a highly capable and compact
speaker with excellent coherence between
components that is simultaneously in-your-face
and smooth and hi-fi sounding.
1.5AM+ Transducer Components:
The high frequency compression driver features
a 2” throat diameter (4” voice coil diameter), a
pure titanium diaphragm with a titanium nitride
coating, and a neodymium magnet assembly. The
driver is joined to a 40° horizontal by 60° vertical
rotatable horn. A 15” carbon fiber reinforced cone
transducer provides mid-bass and low frequency
reproduction.
1.5AM+ Connectors:
The 1.5AM+ input panel features PowerCon (In/
Thru) connectors and a pair of XLRs (In/Thru).

1.5AM+ Electronics:
The 1.5AM+ features an extremely lightweight
and powerful OEM amplifier module made
exclusively for Clair Brothers by Powersoft. The
base configuration of the 1.5AM+ features
a similar DSP to the successful kiTSeries with
32-bit floating point processing with crossover
slopes up to 48dB/oct and FIR filtering. The
1.5AM+ is voltage agile with a PFC corrected
PSU that accepts 85-240VAC 50/60Hz.
1.5AM/1.5AM+ Preset Modes:
The 1.5AM presents interesting preset
configurations native to the 1.5AM+ built-in DSP.
The four preset modes include:
(1) 1.5AM Monitor Mode A
(2) 1.5AM Monitor Mode B
(3) 1.5AM 12AM Emulation Mode 32 dB
(4) 1.5AM 12AM Emulation Mode 38 dB
Other Features:
Low profile styling and ergonomic, flush mounted
side handles provide great aesthetic appeal and
portability. The speaker grille is constructed of
