DB Technologies KL 15 - 400W 15-inch Powered 2-Way Portable Loudspeaker with 90 x 60-Degree Coverage in Black Finish

The DB Technologies KL 15 is a powerful and versatile 400W 15-inch powered 2-way portable loudspeaker, designed to deliver professional-grade sound in a variety of settings. As the largest model in the KL series, the KL 15 is engineered to provide exceptional audio performance with a robust low-end, making it perfect for live performances, DJ setups, corporate events, and more. Equipped with a 15-inch woofer and a 1-inch compression driver (1.35-inch voice coil), the KL 15 offers a full-range frequency response from 48 Hz to 18,000 Hz, producing deep bass, clear mids, and detailed highs. With its sleek, contemporary design and impressive functionality, the KL 15 is an ideal solution for users seeking both portability and high sound quality in one package.

The KL 15 is driven by an 800W peak amplifier, with Class D amplification for the low frequencies and Class AB for the high frequencies, ensuring efficient power delivery and minimal distortion. Its advanced DSP processing, featuring linear phase FIR filters, guarantees precise sound reproduction across all frequencies, providing uniform and crystal-clear audio from any listening position. In addition, the built-in DSP offers several sound presets-Playback, Flat, Bass Boost, and Wedge-allowing users to easily optimize the speaker's performance for different audio environments and applications. This level of control ensures that the KL 15 can adapt to a variety of scenarios, from live sound reinforcement to background music or as a stage monitor.

The KL 15 is equipped with three input channels, each with independent level control, providing flexible connectivity options for a wide range of audio sources. Channel 1 includes a balanced combo XLR/6.3mm jack input, which can be switched between mic and line levels, making it suitable for use with microphones or instruments. Channel 2 features a balanced XLR and TRS jack input, while Channel 3 supports Bluetooth connectivity, allowing users to wirelessly stream audio from smartphones, tablets, or other Bluetooth-enabled devices. The KL 15 also includes a balanced XLR-M output, which can be used to link the speaker to another loudspeaker or mixer. A slide switch allows users to choose between LINK mode (sending the signal before level control) and MIX mode (sending the signal after level control), adding further versatility to its setup options.

Designed for durability and portability, the KL 15 features a rugged polypropylene housing with a full grille for enhanced protection and a clean, modern appearance. The speaker is equipped with three integrated handles-two on the sides and one on the top-making it easy to transport and set up in any location. The KL 15 can be used in multiple configurations, including as a floor monitor (with a 45° angle) or mounted on a tripod or subwoofer using its 36mm pole mount with two tilt options (0° and 7.5°). This multifunctionality makes the KL 15 suitable for both standalone use and as part of a larger sound system. Additionally, the speaker comes with a custom soft cover, which includes a pocket for cable storage, ensuring convenient transport and protection when not in use.

The DB Technologies KL 15 is an excellent choice for professionals seeking a powerful, portable, and easy-to-use loudspeaker that delivers outstanding sound quality. Whether used for live events, DJ performances, or fixed installations, the KL 15 combines advanced features, robust performance, and versatile setup options to meet the demands of any audio application.
