Velodyne Acoustics Deep Blue 15 Powered 15" Subwoofer
The Velodyne Acoustics Deep Blue 15 is the flagship of the Deep Blue series, built around a massive 15" front-firing driver for truly commanding low-frequency performance. Its Class AB amplifier delivers 1000 W dynamic and 450 W RMS power, allowing the subwoofer to reproduce deep bass with authority while maintaining control and clarity. A sealed MDF cabinet with a 52 mm front baffle, dual ferrite magnet motor and 3" four-layer voice coil ensure the large driver remains accurate even under demanding conditions.
Designed for serious home theater enthusiasts and large listening spaces, the Deep Blue 15 reaches down into the lowest frequencies while offering the same flexible tuning and connectivity options as the rest of the series. It adds scale, weight and cinematic impact to any system, while still being tunable enough to integrate smoothly with high-performance main speakers.
