RCF L15P530 - 700W 15-inch Ceramic Mid-Bass Driver with 3-inch Voice Coil and 8-Ohm Impedance in Black Finish

The RCF L15P530 is a high-performance 15-inch ceramic mid-bass driver, designed for both high sensitivity and exceptional linearity, ensuring very low distortion even under high-output conditions. With a continuous program power handling of 700W, the L15P530 excels in delivering crisp, precise mid-bass frequencies while maintaining an impressive sensitivity of 100 dB. Ideal for professional sound reinforcement systems, this driver offers excellent performance in a wide range of applications, including mid-bass and subwoofer systems that require clarity and high efficiency.

At the heart of the L15P530 is a 3-inch edgewound aluminum voice coil, designed to provide maximum power handling and efficient heat dissipation. The voice coil is wound with aluminum, offering high thermal conductivity, ensuring the driver can handle long periods of high-power use without compromising performance. The driver's excellent heat dissipation is further enhanced by a radiator integrated into the basket design, which uses forced air cooling provided by a sealed spider system. This unique design helps to minimize power compression, ensuring consistent performance even during high-output operation.

The L15P530 features a curved cone design, paired with a polycotton M-roll surround, offering superb control during large excursions. This combination provides both excellent strength and flexibility, resulting in a driver that can reproduce mid-bass frequencies with remarkable precision. The spider treatment with dampening control further enhances the driver's stability, ensuring linear movement throughout its entire excursion. The L15P530 has a maximum excursion before damage of 36 mm and a maximum linear excursion of 7 mm, allowing it to handle substantial low-frequency signals without distortion.

With a frequency range of 40 Hz to 3000 Hz, the L15P530 is capable of delivering a well-rounded performance, producing deep and powerful bass while maintaining high clarity in the mid-bass frequencies. The ceramic magnet structure provides an optimal power-to-weight ratio, ensuring that the driver is both efficient and lightweight for easy integration into sound reinforcement systems. This driver is CE compliant, meeting safety standards for professional installations.
