Passive 3-Way PA Speaker Pair
The Acoustic Audio PA-500X is a passive 3-way speaker set built for DJs, karaoke hosts and home-studio users who already own an amplifier or receiver. Each cabinet houses a 5-inch woofer, 3.5-inch midrange and a wide-dispersion horn tweeter to cover 50 Hz to 20 kHz at 96 dB sensitivity. Two 1/4-inch jacks allow daisy-chaining a second pair, while banana-plug binding posts and raw-wire terminals give flexible amp connections.
Upgrade From Powered or 2-Way Cabinets
Moving from a powered speaker or a 2-way passive box adds a dedicated midrange driver and the ability to scale power from 20 up to 800 watts per channel without replacing the amp. The jump is worth it when you need clearer vocal reproduction and the option to run larger amplifiers for bigger venues. Buyers who want a self-contained system with built-in amplification cannot use this pair.
Simple Cabinet Placement and Wiring
Each wedge-shaped enclosure measures 16.875 by 10.25 by 9 inches and weighs 24 pounds, so one person can carry and position it on a 1.375-inch pole stand. Connect speaker wire or 1/4-inch plugs, set the amp between 20 and 800 watts per channel, and the internal crossover handles the rest. The most common issue is under-powering the cabinets, which reduces headroom and can clip the amplifier.

Questions about this item
What are the cabinet dimensions and pole-mount size so I can check fit on my speaker stands?
Each cabinet measures 16.875" high by 10.25" wide by 9" deep and has a 1.375" pole stand mount.
How do I connect the speakers to my amplifier and daisy-chain a second pair?
Use raw speaker wire or banana plugs on the binding posts for the amp connection, then run a 1/4" jack from the output of the first speaker to the input of the second.
Which driver parts will need attention after heavy use?
The 5" woofer, 3.5" midrange and wide-dispersion tweeter horn are the moving components that can wear over time.
