About this product.

Design

The SW215P is built for applications where very high output matters, along with well-defined deep bass and fast transient response. Its compact size and light weight suit touring, fixed installations and high-level dance clubs.

It uses a manifolded band-pass design. The front sides of the cones are manifolded to maximize coupling between the two drivers. Small cavities, rather than one large resonant cavity, improve definition at the lowest end and in the upper bass.

Drivers

Two high-power 15 in (380 mm) drivers reach up to 33 mm peak-to-peak excursion. A high-stiffness Double Silicon Spider and heavy-duty surround control the movement. The high-strength (BL²/Re) motor uses a flux demodulating ring to control symmetry and excursion.

The 3 in (75 mm) copper voice coil is wound in two layers, inside and outside the former. This doubles the coil surface exposed to cooling air and improves long-term thermal capacity. Cones are high-stiffness reinforced paper with an invisible water-repellent treatment.

The result is solid low-frequency definition and a punchy upper bass, with a deep low end and fast, accurate bass response.

Flying hardware

This is the flying version of the SW215P. Its suspension system uses high-strength steel side and back fittings with 1/4 in fast pins.

  • Very high output
  • Compact size for a strong output-to-weight ratio
  • Manifolded band-pass design for high output in a compact size
  • High-strength, water-repellent cones
  • Long-excursion split coil for extended linear response
Version
Passive (needs an external amplifier). The P in the model number means Passive; the active version is SW215FA.
