Tannoy VSX115B - 3200W 15-inch Passive Bass Reflex Subwoofer with 8-Ohm Impedance in Black Finish

The Tannoy VSX115B is a high-performance, 15-inch passive bass reflex subwoofer designed to deliver exceptional low-frequency reproduction in a variety of applications, including fixed installations, portable sound systems, and touring setups. With an impressive 3,200W peak power handling and 800W continuous, this subwoofer is ideal for providing deep, chest-pounding bass in environments such as clubs, bars, theatres, and AV systems. The VSX115B's low-frequency driver and robust design ensure that it can handle even the most demanding bass-heavy sound reinforcement needs.

The VSX115B features a 15-inch driver housed in a ported bass reflex system, which extends low-frequency response to well below 40 Hz, delivering tight and powerful bass that is virtually distortion-free. This design maximizes efficiency, allowing for maximum sound pressure levels while ensuring quick and accurate transient response. With a frequency response range from 45 Hz to 3 kHz (+3 dB), the VSX115B produces an exceptionally clear and impactful bass, capable of reaching down to 36 Hz (-10 dB), making it suitable for both speech and music applications.

The subwoofer's low distortion and dual port design allow it to generate copious quantities of tight, clean bass, making it the perfect choice for environments where high-quality low-end performance is essential. The recommended low-pass crossover frequency range is between 80 Hz and 500 Hz with a 24 dB/Oct slope, ensuring seamless integration with full-range loudspeakers for a balanced sound. The VSX115B is built to handle maximum SPL levels of 134 dB peak and 128 dB continuous, making it ideal for high-demand environments that require loud and clear bass output.

For versatility and ease of installation, the VSX115B features integral M10 rigging points and a blanking plate for an optional VTH pole mount, enabling flexible deployment options. For portable applications, the subwoofer is equipped with ergonomically integrated Integrip handles for easy transportation. The enclosure is made of 18 mm plywood, internally braced to reduce resonance and enhance durability. The rugged construction is finished with a semi-matte black paint, ensuring a professional appearance and the ability to withstand the rigors of both fixed and portable installations.

The rear panel includes two Neutrik speakON NL4 connectors and a barrier strip, allowing for easy input and link connections to accommodate additional subwoofers or full-range loudspeakers. The subwoofer's design also features a powder-coated perforated steel mesh grille, backed with reticulated foam, for added protection and acoustic transparency. Whether used in touring systems, installed in permanent locations, or deployed in portable setups, the Tannoy VSX115B offers both performance and convenience.
