Frequently asked questions
Can the PD6200/43-WH replace the AM7315/64 as a main speaker?
No. The PD6200/43-WH is a mid-high speaker (200 Hz–18 kHz) and lacks the low-frequency driver needed for full-range reinforcement. It is designed as a secondary, fill, or distributed speaker and pairs best with dedicated subwoofers.

The AM7315/64 is the primary choice for main-stage touring because it delivers full-range output, controlled directivity, and 135 dB continuous SPL. The PD6200/43-WH complements touring setups as a compact fill or under-balcony speaker.
What is the key difference in frequency response?
The AM7315/64 covers 45 Hz–18 kHz (±3 dB) with extended reach to 38 Hz, providing deep bass. The PD6200/43-WH covers 200 Hz–18 kHz, requiring external bass sources for full-range sound.
