INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing Mackie’s active sound reinforcement loudspeaker systems.
The SA1532z is a high-efficiency, extreme output, horn-loaded, 3-way, wide-dispersion, active sound reinforcement system. It features a one-piece 90º x 40º horn, which includes both the mid- and high-frequency sections in a proprietary optimized Wavefront™ design.
Unlike typical mid/high horn designs, the high-frequency section is positioned to fire down into the 6-inch midrange’s dispersion pattern. This creates a focused, single wave front with excellent phase and power response characteristics. The resulting 90º x 40º dispersion pattern provides a very open, natural sound at extreme output levels.
The 6-inch neodymium mid-range transducer operates between 700 Hz and 3000 Hz, eliminating the placement of a crossover point in the middle of critical voice frequencies. Frequencies above 3000 Hz are reproduced by a 1.75-inch neodymium compression driver. The low frequencies are produced by two high-output 15-inch woofers.
Connecting and setting up the SA1532z is a breeze. It accepts a line-level signal via a female XLR input jack.
A male XLR Thru jack is provided for daisy-chaining the signal to additional SA1532z cabinets.
Three built-in power amplifiers provide 100 watts rms each for the mid-frequency and high-frequency drivers, and 1100 watts rms for the low-frequency driver. The amplifier modules sit on a mammoth aluminum heatsink that eliminates the need for fans. A tremendous benefit of having the amplifiers located within the loudspeaker cabinet is that the SA1532z functions as a system, optimizing acoustic, electronic, and mechanical designs to achieve the highest level of performance and value.
The rear mounted amplifier assembly features separate signal and AC power panels separated by the heatsink. The signal input panel contains:
• an input XLR and loop-through XLR
• a volume level control
• Power ON indicator
• Signal Present indicator
• Limit indicator
• Thermal Protection indicator
The cabinet is constructed using both 18 mm multilayered plywood and pressure injected structural resin.
A carrying handle is integrated into each side for easy loading and transport.

3. Level Control
This controls the overall signal level at the input to the built-in power amplifiers. It ranges from –15 dB to
+5 dB of gain. The center detent is 0 dB (unity gain).
4. Power ON Indicator
When the POWER switch is turned on, and the linecord is connected to an active AC power supply, this indicator lights green to let you know that you’re ready to rock and roll. The cool blue LED on the front of the cabinet works in the same way.
5. SIGNAL Present Indicator
This LED illuminates whenever there is a signal present at the MAIN INPUT connector on the rear panel.
It senses the signal just after the level control, so if the level control is turned down, the SIGNAL Present indicator turns off.
6. LIMIT Indicator
The SA1532z has a built-in limiter that prevents the amplifier outputs from clipping or overdriving the transducers. The LIMIT indicator lights when the limiter is activated. It's okay for the
LIMIT indicator to blink occasionally, but if it blinks frequently or lights continuously, turn down the level control until the LIMIT indicator only blinks occasionally.
7. THERMAL Indicator
There is also a thermal protection circuit that monitors the internal temperature of the amplifiers and heatsink. If the temperature should exceed a safe operating level, this indicator lights and the signal is muted to allow the amplifiers to cool. When the temperature cools to a safe level once again, the thermal protection circuit deactivates and normal operation continues.
Note: Activation of the thermal protection circuit is an indication that you should take steps to avoid continued thermal problems. See “Thermal Considerations” on page 6.
8. POWER Switch
Use this switch to turn the SA1532z on and off. Make sure the level control is turned down before you turn it on.
9. AC Receptacle
This is where you connect the AC linecord to provide
AC power to the SA1532z’s built-in power amplifiers.
Plug the linecord into an AC socket properly configured for your particular model.

DAISY-CHAINING MULTIPLE SA1532z'
S
CONNECTIONS
The SA1532z has one female XLR input that accepts a balanced line-level signal. When connecting a balanced signal, be sure it’s wired per AES (Audio Engineering
Society) standards:
Hot (+)
Cold (–)
XLR
Pin 2
Pin 3
Shield (Ground) Pin 1
Balanced XLR Connectors
There is also a male XLR connector labeled LOOP
OUT. This is also wired according to the above AES standard.
The LOOP OUT connector allows you to connect more than one SA1532z to your system. Simply plug the signal source (i.e., mixer output) into the first MAIN
INPUT jack, and patch that speaker’s LOOP OUT jack to the next MAIN INPUT jack, and so on, daisy-chaining multiple speakers.
The LOOP OUT jack is wired straight from the MAIN
INPUT connector — there is no electronic circuitry between — so the signal coming out of the LOOP OUT jack is exactly the same as the signal going in.
PLACEMENT
The SA1532z speaker is designed to sit on the floor or stage.
WARNING: The cabinet has no rigging points and is not suitable for rigging. NEVER attempt to suspend the
SA1532z by its handles. The SA1532z
should never be pole-mounted.
You can create a horizontal array by placing the cabinets side-by-side. However, you should have a good understanding of the relationship between the splay angle
(the angle between the facing sides of the cabinets), the on-axis power, and frequency cancellation effects between cabinets.
When two cabinets are placed side-by-side, the actual splay angle is 20º (determined by a 10º angle on each cabinet side). As the splay angle increases toward the angle of horizontal coverage (90º for the SA1532z), the on-axis power decreases, but the frequency response becomes smoother as the comb-filtering effects (caused by the interaction in the area of double-coverage) decrease.
As with any powered components, protect them from moisture. If you are setting them up outdoors, make sure they are under cover if you expect rain.

Room Acoustics
The SA1532z loudspeakers are designed to sound as neutral as possible; that is, to reproduce the input signal as accurately as possible.
Room acoustics play a crucial role in the overall performance of a sound system. Here are some additional placement tips to help overcome some typical room problems that might arise:
• Avoid placing loudspeakers in the corners of a room. This increases the low frequency output and can cause the sound to be muddy and indistinct.
• Avoid placing loudspeakers against a wall. This, too, increases the low frequency output, though not as much as corner placement. However, if you do need to reinforce the low frequencies, this is a good way to do it.
• Avoid placing the speakers directly on a hollow stage floor. A hollow stage can resonate at certain frequencies, causing peaks and dips in the frequency response of the room. It’s better to place the loudspeakers on a sturdy table or stand designed to handle the weight of the SA1532z.
• Position the loudspeakers so the high-frequency drivers are 2 to 4 feet above ear level for the audience
(make allowances for a standing/dancing in the aisles audience). High frequencies are highly directional and tend to be absorbed much easier than lower frequencies. By providing direct line-of-sight from the loudspeakers to the audience, you increase the overall brightness and intelligibility of the sound system.
• Highly reverberant rooms, like many gymnasiums and auditoriums, are a nightmare for sound system intelligibility. Multiple reflections off the hard walls, ceiling, and floor play havoc with the sound. Depending on the situation, you may be able to take some steps to minimize the reflections, such as putting carpeting on the floors, closing draperies to cover large glass windows, or hanging tapestries or other materials on the walls to absorb some of the sound.
However, in most cases, these remedies are not possible or practical. So what do you do? Making the sound system louder generally doesn’t work because the reflections become louder, too. The best approach is to provide as much direct sound coverage to the audience as possible. The farther away you are from the speaker, the more prominent will be the reflected sound.
Use more speakers strategically placed so they are closer to the back of the audience. If the distance between the front and back speakers is more than about 100 feet, you should use a delay processor to time-align the sound. (Since sound travels about
1 foot per millisecond, it takes about 1/10 of a second to travel 100 feet.)
6
THERMAL CONSIDERATIONS
The SA1532z has three powerful built-in amplifiers capable of producing a combined 1300 watts of power.
As amplifiers produce heat, it is important to dissipate the heat as quickly as possible. This results in increased reliability and longevity for the amplifier.
The amplifier module is mounted on a large heatsink, which is cooled by convection where cool air is drawn through it’s fins, carrying the heat away. In order for this convection cooling to work efficiently, it is important to provide adequate airspace behind the loudspeaker.
When you position the SA1532z, we recommend leaving at least six inches of air space behind it.
In the unlikely event of the amplifier overheating, a built-in thermal switch will activate, which mutes the signal and lights the THERMAL LED. When the amplifier has cooled down to a safe operating temperature, the thermal switch resets itself, and the SA1532z resumes normal operation.
If the thermal switch activates frequently, try turning down the level control a notch or two on the mixing console (or the back of the SA1532z) to avoid overheating the amplifier.
If the temperature in the room is too high, it could cause the amplifier to overheat. In this case, you should try aiming a fan at the rear panel to move more air through the heatsink fins.
AC POWER
Be sure the SA1532z is plugged into an outlet that is able to supply the correct voltage specified for your model. If the voltage should drop below 97% of the specified line voltage, the built-in amplifiers will no longer be able to supply rated power. (They will continue to operate down to 80% of the rated line voltage, but won’t reach full power, resulting in lower headroom.)
Be sure the electrical service can supply enough amperage for all the components connected to it.
We recommend that a stiff (robust) supply of AC power be used because the amplifiers place high current demands on the AC line. The more power that is available on the line, the louder the speakers will play and the more peak output power will be available for cleaner, punchier bass. A suspected problem of “poor bass performance” is often caused by a weak AC supply to the amplifiers.
Never remove the ground pin on the power cord of the SA1532z or any other component. This is very dangerous.

SERVICE INFORMATION
Warranty Service
Details concerning warranty service are spelled out on page 11 of this manual.
If you think your loudspeaker has a problem, please do everything you can to confirm it before calling for service, including reading through the following Troubleshooting section. Doing so might save you from being deprived of your Mackie loudspeaker.
Of all Mackie products returned for service (which is hardly any at all), many are coded “CND” — Could Not
Duplicate— which usually means the problem lay somewhere else in the system. The following troubleshooting tips may sound obvious, but here are some things you can check:
Poor bass performance
• Check the polarity of the connections between the mixer and the loudspeakers. You may have your positive and negative connections reversed at one end of one cable, causing one loudspeaker to be out-of-phase.
Poor sound
• Is it loud and distorted? Make sure that you’re not overdriving a stage in the signal chain. Verify that all level controls are set properly.
• Is the input connector plugged completely into the jack? Be sure all connections are secure. It’s a good idea to periodically clean all electrical connections with a non-lubricating electrical contact cleaner.
Troubleshooting
No power
• Our favorite question: Is it plugged in? Make sure the AC outlet is live (check with a tester or lamp).
• Our next favorite question: Is the POWER switch on? If not, try turning it on.
• Is the POWER LED on the rear panel glowing green? If not, make sure the AC outlet is live. If so, refer to “No sound” below.
• The internal AC line fuse may be blown. This is not a user serviceable part. If you suspect the AC line fuse is blown, please see the "Repair" section next.
Noise
• Make sure all connections to the active loudspeakers are good and sound.
• Make sure none of the signal cables are routed near
AC cables, power transformers, or other EMI-inducing devices.
• Is there a light dimmer or other SCR-based device on the same AC circuit as the SA1532z? Use an AC line filter or plug the SA1532z into a different AC circuit.
No sound
• Is the input level control for the input source turned all the way down? Verify that all the volume controls in the system are properly adjusted.
• Is the signal source working (and making union scale)? Make sure the connecting cables are in good repair and securely connected at both ends. Make sure the output volume (gain) control on the mixing console is turned up sufficiently to drive the inputs of the speaker.
• Make sure the mixer does not have a Mute on or a
Processor loop engaged. If you find something like this, make sure the volume/gain is turned down before disengaging the offending switch.
• Is the THERMAL indicator lit red on the rear panel?
Make sure there is at least six inches of free space behind the SA1532z.
Hum
• Try disconnecting the cable connected to the MAIN
INPUT jack. If the noise disappears, it could be a “ground loop,” rather than a problem with the
SA1532z. Try some of the following troubleshooting ideas:
◊ Use balanced connections throughout your system for the best noise rejection.
◊ Whenever possible, plug all the audio equipment’s linecords into outlets which share a common ground. The distance between the outlets and the common ground should be as short as possible.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your Mackie loudspeakers will provide many years of reliable service if you follow these guidelines:
Avoid exposing the loudspeakers to moisture. If they are set up outdoors, be sure they are under cover if you expect rain.
• Avoid exposure to extreme cold (below freezing temperatures). If you must operate the loudspeakers in a cold environment, warm up the voice coils slowly by sending a low-level signal through them for about 15 minutes prior to high-power operation.
• Use a slighty damp cloth with a mild soap solution to clean the cabinets. Only do this when the power is turned off. Avoid getting moisture into any of the openings of the cabinet, particularly where the drivers are located.
