The Wharfedale Pro LA -15 series is a 15in, two-way, full-range loudspeaker. Its high-efficiency, constant-directivity, reconfigurable design is especially suited to high-quality applications where its power response and overall performance provide excellent results, even in challenging acoustic spaces. The LA-15 series feature a dynamic high frequency driver protection circuit which gives progressive-dynamic limiting for both short-term peaks and long term overload conditions. The sophisticated limiting function works progressively, giving smooth sonic performance even when driven beyond the design limits of the system.
Where significant extension of low frequency output of the system is required, the addition of the LA-15SB sub will provide balanced, high output enhancement and power to the overall system. The LA-15SB features an internal passive crossover. This enables a signal to be fed into the LA-15SB, where it is filtered and then taken to the full range LA-15. Both enclosures will function with external powered crossovers.
The cabinets of the LA-15 and LA-15SB are constructed in High Density Polyethylene structural foam, finished in black. This material ensures a lightweight and highly-robust enclosure that will withstand the rigours of constant live work. The LA-15’s profile allows the cabinets to lock together in a trapezoid formation, and enables the system to be used in a horizontal position as a floor monitor. Versatility is the key word with the Wharfedale LA-15 Series. It can be used as the basis for a complete small-to-medium touring system and provide front of house sound and monitoring as well as permanent install reinforcement.
