Martin Audio has expended its subwoofer line-up with the introduction of the SXF115 – a passive subwoofer featuring a long-excursion 15-inch (380mm)/4-inch (100mm) voice coil driver in an ultra compact bass reflex enclosure, capable of 136dB @ 1m.
Designed as an ideal companion for the new Wavefront Precision Mini (WPM) optimised line array, the SXF115 can extend the performance down to 42Hz and can be flown as part of an array, or groundstacked separately. Cardioid operation can be achieved by arranging the SXF115 in forward and rear-facing pairs.
The design of the 15-inch driver maximises output while minimising power compression and distortion, and four reflex ports reduce air noise at very high output levels. The SXF115 enclosure is constructed from multi-laminate birch ply, finished with a durable polyurethane coating and equipped with a perforated steel grille, skids and twin bar handles. An M20 threaded fitting in the top surface facilitates polemounting of up to four WPM or MLA Mini enclosures.
‘Wavefront Precision line arrays have sold very successfully and across more varied applications than initially expected,’ says Martin Audio MS, Dom Harter. ‘With that has come demand for additional subwoofer solutions.
‘We recently added the high output SXH218 for WPC and now we’re pleased to introduce for WPM the flyable SXF115. The SXF115 is also compatible with MLA Mini in fixed installations where ground-based, rackmount amplification is preferred, so we expect to see very healthy sales of this sub.’
The SXF115 will ship from Q2 2018.
