Xiv15 High Power Extended Low Frequency Loudspeaker
The Xiv15 is the recommended subwoofer for the X Series Line Array, M, TC, PS ,5 Series and other QANON
AUDIO® products. It enhances the system's sub-low frequency supplement by enhancing the low-frequency
throwing capability, which allows the system's operating frequency range to be extended to 30Hz.
The Xiv15 subwoofer is internally loaded with an 15-inch speaker. It has a powerful impact, sensitivity and
low frequency performance, with a vented progressive shape on the inside and outside, allowing laminar
airflow and reduced turbulence noise. These comprehensive features help to improve the working level.
The Xiv15 enclosure is made of Baltic birch plywood to ensure maximum acoustic and mechanical integrity.
In the installation application, the Xiv15 is especially suitable for different needs. It can be installed in both
mobile and fixed installations. It also provides both vertical and horizontal mounting methods, extending the
extension of the low frequency limit, so that you can feel very full low frequency effect. For small rental
activities, the Xiv15 and M, TC, and PS ,5 series are quick to deploy and easy to assemble. It can be used as
a powerful PA speaker ultra-low frequency system, and its excellent projection capability can meet large
space and multi-function hall.
The Xiv15 subwoofer can be used as a stand-alone or as an extension of the low frequency of any product
by QANON AUDIO® products.Xiv15 is driven and amplified by C15 or H series / VDA power controller.
