A STORY OF SOUND…
PHILOSOPHY
TECHNOLOGY
INCREASING DEMAND ON SOUND QUALITY PRODUCT RANGE
" Due to major changes in the recording industry, live performance has once again taken a very
important place in the music industry.
Today’s artists are often moving from studio to stage and back again far more frequently than in the
past, and are expecting to find, in their live performance, if not the exact sound of their records, then
certainly the wellbalanced, detailed sound of top quality studio reproduction.
Digital technologies have increased the performance quality of hi-fi installations at home and in the
car, as well as of personal players, thus generating a demand for improved sound quality in concert
halls.
Sound professionals are facing the challenge of satisfying clients on both sides of the stage: providing
the artists with the best conditions for the expression of their talents as well as displaying the musical
shading of a live show for the audience.
The new generation of APG products is the result of a thorough knowledge of performance in sound
reproduction. Sonic quality is not a subjective notion when considering criteria such as phase,
bandwidth, frequency response linearity, and all non distortion-related criteria.
These fundamental considerations have been taken into account and allow APG products to combine
work with pleasure every time an APG sound system powers into action.
The demands of professional users are constantly evolving toward products that combine high sonic
performance and sophisticated ergonomics that enable them to handle all the constraints imposed
by the site with no compromise in performance or handling..
As has been the case for quite some years now, APG continues to provide answers and solutions to
these issues, with passion and objectivity, and as always, with no compromise.
It is our ambition to contribute to the technical evolution of our industry, but always with the artistic
side of our work in sight."

about music and audio, launched a project of integrated and
tailor-made sound systems.
The acoustic and electronic competences of the team
and their fierce determination to build high quality,
“no-compromise” products have quickly resulted in a range PHILOSOPHY
of professional speakers, fully adapted to the specific
needs of users in the world of live sound, fixed installations,
theatres, clubs, TV shows, sport venues and more..
The superlative sound quality of APG loudspeakers has APG’s ambition is to develop ultra-efficient products optimized to the smallest detail in every domain: electro-acoustic,

The D'Appolito Baffle
The D’Appolito baffle enables directivity control without the use of a horn. The directivity is
controlled lower down in the frequency range while limiting the distortion and the diffractions
caused by a physical horn. Furthermore, the close coupling of the two transducers affords a
significant gain in efficiency.
K-Horn Technology
K-Horn technology is a complex acoustic load designed for subwoofers and low frequency
speakers.
It consists of loading a double interactive chamber with a K-horn. This exclusive technology
provides a significant increase in gain, between 4 and 6 dB, compared to the conventional bass
reflex load and direct radiation.
This technology has been designed for the new generation "TB" subwoofer family.

The SMX15 is a very high performance speaker that benefits from coaxial
technology. The coaxial driver alignment offers a perfectly coherent wide Compact satellite speaker
acoustic field even in nearfield listening.
The SMX15 has been designed for applications requiring both high acoustic
performance and professional ergonomics. The SMX15 is defined by a
sound quality and an accuracy rivalling studio monitors whilst producing
BENEFITS a sound pressure level seldom heard from such a compact box. It offers
particularly high sound pressure down to very low frequencies.
• Sonic transparency
The frequency and phase response are perfectly linear resulting in
• Very high SPL
exceptional feedback reduction.
• Minimal distortion
The unique ergonomics of the SMX15 which includes APG’s unique Aiming
• Very wide bandwidth Tuning System (AST), enable the speaker to be tilted at five different angles
• Sonic versatility (15°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 90°). The SMX15 is equally at home on stage as a
wedge monitor, or flown or stacked as a FoH system.
• 3 different handles
The SMX15 meets all professional requirements in terms of versatility,
• Strong grill and front face
compactness, ease of handling and setup, with multiple handles, multiple
• ATSTM (Aiming Tuning System) recesses cabling connectors, strong front grill, etc.
• 5 angles in floor monitoring: 15, 30, 45, 60 and 90° As a result of its exceptional acoustic performances, it offers a totally new
• Sophisticated "touring" ergonomics approach to stage monitoring - it is truly compatible with ear-monitors but
also because it extends the response of the “in-ears” in the low frequencies
which considerably enhances the experience for the artist.
Used as a medium throw FOH system, the SMX15 is the perfect sound
APPLICATIONS reinforcement system for all types of live entertainment or music playback.
• Very high fidelity reproduction Combined with compact subwoofers, the SMX15 becomes a high power
• High quality stage monitoring nearfield or midfield FOH system, or as a side-fill or drum-fill system.
For very low frequency reinforcement, the recommended subs are:
• High performance FOH
TB118S, TB215S and TB218S.
• TV stage monitoring
