Delta 952

Single 12", 2-Way FOH Speaker / Floor Monitor

Product at a Glance

The British Acoustics Delta 952 is a versatile dual-purpose speaker designed for very high output performance across live sound, theatre, and fixed installations. Equally capable as a floor monitor or a standalone PA system paired with the Delta 918S, it offers flexibility for a wide range of professional audio applications. Featuring a 12” low-frequency driver and a 1.4” exit compression driver mounted on a user-rotatable DeltaFlow Horn, the Delta 952 delivers exceptional output with extended frequency coverage, ensuring even and precise sound distribution.

The enclosure, made from rugged birchwood and finished with a durable scratch-resistant coating, is built to endure the rigors of frequent transport and use. Moulded feet ensure stability onstage, while the lightweight design makes it easy to carry and deploy. With its very high SPL capability, robust build quality, and versatile functionality, the Delta 952 is the ideal choice for audio professionals looking for reliability and top-tier performance in challenging environments.

CRAFTSMANSHIP

Painstakingly Perfect Production

Over the years, craftsmanship has been closely linked with small scale individualistic production. Back in 1972, we started the same way. As we grew in scale & size, it was difficult to build each speaker individually, but quality control was of utmost importance as so switching to a general assembly line was simply not an option. So we wrote up a code, one quite like enigma, to ensure quality control. We selected the right partners, got the right tools, and in cases where those weren't available, we invented them. We grew slower than most as our aim was to last longer than most.
