The E15X-SUB is a compact, light weight, high performance subwoofer for use with d&b E-Series loudspeakers. It employs a long excursion 15" neodymium driver in a bass-reflex enclosure.The built in passive crossover network allows the E15X-SUB to be connected in parallel to E12 or E12-D loudspeakers on the same amplifier channel, greatly extending the low frequency headroom and bandwidth of the systems. As an alternative it can be operated actively, driven by its own amplifier channel without the need for any changes to the cabinet. In active mode the E15X-SUB can be used to supplement any of the E-Series cabinets.
The E15X-SUB cabinet is constructed from marine plywood and has an impact resistant paint finish, a pair of handles and an M20 threaded flange on the top to accept the d&b Loudspeaker stand winder M20. The front of the loudspeaker cabinet is protected by a rigid metal grill backed by an acoustically transparent foam.Four rubber feet prevent cabinet movement and protect the bottom panel against scratching. Correspondingly shaped recesses are incorporated in the top panel of each cabinet to accept these and to prevent cabinet movement when stacked.
