Welcome To MacPherson -- High-Fidelity Loudspeakers for Sound Reinforcement

IS12

The smallest of MacPherson's Install Series is ideal for a wide variety of applications

The MacPherson IS12 is a full-range loudspeaker system utilizing a 12-inch low-frequency driver and a 1-inch compression driver mounted on a 90-degree conical waveguide for smooth, even coverage.

Designed with the installer in mind, the cabinet includes suspension points on multiple sides, a powder-coated perforated steel grill, and a choice of black or paint-ready finish. Connectors include a Neutrik NL4, plus two barrier strips—one on the back and one on the front under the grill—ideal for testing or for use in wall-mounted applications.

The IS12's enclosure is less than 8-inches deep and is narrow enough to fit between wall studs. Despite these dimensions, it features full, well-defined, low-frequency performance and a smooth, transparent top end. Excellent for speech or music systems.
