StudioLive® 328AI Active Integration loudspeakers deliver studio-monitor accuracy onstage with unprecedented onboard processing and networking features in a compact form factor. PreSonus Active Integration technology enables wireless and wired networking control for setup, tuning, and monitoring functions, using an iPad®, a Mac® or Windows® laptop, or both. The StudioLive 328AI provides the best imaging and intelligibility in its class, making it an ideal choice for installations and mobile applications where high fidelity matters.
Three-way coverage with power to spare.
A compact, full-range system that provides amazing clarity and fidelity, the StudioLive 328AI delivers 3-way coverage, with dual 8-inch low-frequency drivers covering the same range to deliver surprising low end and our proprietary 8-inch, CoActual® coaxial speaker for mid- and high-frequency reproduction. Each transducer is driven its own 500W Class D amp for a hefty 2,000W RMS of quad-amplified power, all housed in a compact enclosure. The 328AI is time- and phase-aligned to form a true 4-way system when paired with the StudioLive 18sAI subwoofer, with or without the highpass filter engaged, to provide an optional overlap at 100 Hz for applications that require a little more low-end punch.
The CoActual difference.
PreSonus’ proprietary CoActual® 8-inch, horn-loaded coaxial speaker offers a consistent acoustic center and is responsible for high- and mid-frequency reproduction. The single point source provided by this coaxial design offers unique advantages, thanks to the driver’s symmetrical response. The net result is exceptional 3D imaging and a natural listening experience that reveals the subtlest details.
Networkable with Wi-Fi, Ethernet, or Dante.
The StudioLive 328AI comes equipped for wireless and wired communications over an Ethernet or Wi-Fi local area network for monitoring and control over custom tuning settings. Better yet, add the SL-Dante-SPK option card to create a Dante™ network and ditch your analog cables in favor of lightweight CAT5e or CAT6 cables.
