The EM Acoustics EMS-159 Wide is a high-output, 2-way passive reflex-loaded full-range loudspeaker engineered to deliver powerful, even coverage across wide audience areas from a single enclosure. Finished in white, it is ideal for theatres, houses of worship, corporate AV, live venues and premium installed sound systems where high performance must be matched with discreet visual integration.
The EMS-159 Wide is built around a 15â neodymium low-frequency driver paired with a 1.4â exit neodymium high-frequency compression driver, loaded onto a wide-dispersion, rotatable constant-directivity waveguide for flexible horizontal or vertical deployment. This configuration provides strong low-frequency authority, excellent projection and smooth, consistent coverage across broad listening areas, making it equally effective for high-impact music and clear, intelligible speech. Performance is rated at approximately 65 Hz â 20 kHz (±3 dB) with a maximum peak SPL of around 136 dB, supported by 750 W RMS / 1500 W programme power handling and a nominal impedance of 8 ohms, allowing confident standalone full-range operation or seamless integration with subwoofers.
Housed in a rigid, multi-angled birch plywood enclosure, the EMS-159 Wide delivers a more natural and controlled sound than plastic alternatives while offering excellent durability for fixed installations. Its passive design allows full optimisation via external amplification and DSP, making the EMS-159 Wide a powerful, refined solution for system designers seeking wide, consistent coverage with premium sound quality in visually sensitive environments.
