This design provides powerful output levels typically associated with much larger enclosures, ensuring that the S 15 can deliver the deep, immersive bass essential for creating a high-quality audio experience. The subwoofer's small footprint and high SPL-to-size ratio make it a versatile solution for sound engineers who require high-output bass in tight spaces.

The S 15's high-quality plywood cabinet enhances the subwoofer's acoustic performance by reducing unwanted resonance, ensuring that the bass is tight and clean. The sturdy construction of the cabinet is complemented by a steel front grille with a cloth backing, which protects the internal components while allowing for clear, uninterrupted sound transmission. The S 15 is also equipped with an M20 threaded pole mount, allowing for easy integration with compatible speaker stands or mounting systems. This makes the subwoofer adaptable to a range of installations, whether it's used in a standalone configuration or as part of a larger sound system.

For flexibility in setup, the S 15 features a 4-pole Euroblock connector for both audio input and parallel link output, allowing for easy chaining of multiple subwoofers or connection to other audio equipment. The recommended amplifiers for the S 15 include the QPS 6.0K, IPS 2.5K, IPS 1.5K, and DMA 504, ensuring that the subwoofer is properly matched to the appropriate power source. The frequency response range from 35 Hz to 200 Hz ensures a smooth and seamless integration with full-range speaker systems, providing clean, punchy bass that enhances the overall sound experience.

Whether for background music or high-powered foreground audio, the S 15 is designed to deliver outstanding performance in a compact, aesthetically pleasing package. It is the ideal choice for venues that require powerful, accurate bass without compromising on space or sound quality.
