JBL VRX915S - 800W 15-inch Passive Front Loaded Subwoofer in Black Finish

The JBL Professional VRX915S is a high-performance, 15-inch passive front-loaded subwoofer designed to deliver deep, accurate bass in compact and versatile applications. Equipped with JBL's patented Differential Drive technology, the VRX915S is optimized for high-output low-frequency reproduction and is ideal for use in line array systems when paired with the VRX928LA Line Array speakers and the VRX-SMAF Array Frame. It can also be used in standalone arrays consisting entirely of VRX915S subwoofers, offering an effective solution for both portable and installed sound reinforcement.

At the heart of the VRX915S is the JBL 2265G-1 15-inch Differential Drive woofer, a high-power, low-weight neodymium magnet driver that provides extended low-frequency output while maintaining excellent efficiency and handling up to 800 watts of continuous power. The front-loaded, vented enclosure is designed to maximize low-frequency performance, delivering clear, punchy bass and achieving an impressive maximum peak SPL of 126 dB. Whether stacked on the ground or used in suspended arrays, the VRX915S delivers consistent and high-impact sub-bass, ensuring that every performance resonates with clarity and power.

The subwoofer's enclosure is built from top-quality birch plywood and finished in JBL's rugged DuraFlex coating, ensuring durability and long-lasting performance. The enclosure is heavily braced to minimize unwanted vibrations and maximize the subwoofer's low-frequency capabilities. The 16-gauge CNC-machined steel grille is acoustically transparent and internally lined with foam to protect the driver while providing an elegant, professional appearance. For added transportability, the VRX915S is equipped with an integrated steel handle for easy handling and maneuverability, making it ideal for touring and rental applications.

For mounting flexibility, the VRX915S includes a top-mounted, threaded 20 mm socket that can accommodate the optional SS4-BK pole, allowing for secure and stable mounting of compatible satellite speakers. The pole is designed to minimize vibrations and maintain a straight, firm connection between the subwoofer and the satellite speaker. The subwoofer can also be used in ground-stacked applications or suspended with the integrated rigging hardware, providing seamless integration into a variety of configurations. Optional accessories such as the M10 eyebolt kit and WK-4 caster kit further enhance setup flexibility and transport ease.
