Overview

The PHA-5125's high-performance, full-range drivers offer a well-defined dispersion pattern with no hot spots. It is a compact array speaker designed to work on its own or paired with flat-panel displays and video walls in industrial, commercial and residential home-theater applications. Each enclosure is the full height of a typical 50"-65" video panel, so the PHA-5125 mounts naturally as a vertical column flanking a video wall - visually disappearing into the wall's edges while delivering true line-source dispersion across the full screen height. Its long line source produces cylindrical near-field behavior with consistent SPL out to 9-12 m.

Mounted horizontally as a soundbar, the signal drops off dramatically off-axis while maintaining a very uniform sound field in the vertical dimension. Mounted as a vertical column, it delivers a uniform sound field 360° around the speaker - ideal for public venues or hidden away at home. Options include an external HideAway™ amplifier and a PADS™ or TPA receiver.

In the field

PHA-5125B at a departure gate in Sydney Airport Terminal 2 - a trial install with a clear brief: passengers in the seating area should hear the gate monitor, without the audio disturbing staff at the boarding counter. Mounted soundbar-style beneath the display, the PHA-5125B delivered clear program audio across the waiting area through high ambient noise - while staying all but inaudible at the counter. Asked whether the audio was bothering them, the boarding-gate staff answered: “What audio?”

PHA-5125B - the black-finish PHA-5125 - at the Farnborough International Airshow (UK): four arrays in one exhibit, two mounted above the main display wall and two above the exhibit hall entrances, cutting program audio through trade-show floor noise.

Make your video wall sound as good as it looks

A 53-second look at why line arrays belong on video walls: conventional speakers spray sound everywhere, while a vertical PHA-5125 column focuses it across the room — intelligible from the front row to 10 m back, with no ceiling slap.
