Bag End Updates TA Series Models

Bag End TA 2002Bag End has updated their TA series with the introduction of the TA1202, TA2002 and the TA6002.

Suited for both sound reinforcement and musical instrument applications, the Time Aligned, full-range loudspeakers feature the new and updated E-700 driver, replacing their previous counterparts’ E-600s. The new driver utilizes newer materials and offers better high-frequency response and lower rates of distortion at “extreme” levels.

The Bag End TA series enclosures are built of birch plywood with 16 guage black vinyl coated steel grills. The TA1202 and TA2002 models include a 12″ driver a 1″ exit compression driver, while the TA6002 has two 6.5″ drivers and instead of a single 12.”

The new enclosures will be priced as their predecessors, ranging from $550 to $700. For more info, visit the Bag End website.
