B&C Speakers - 15PL40 8 Ohm

The 15PL40 8 Ohm from B&C Speakers is the kind of speaker you choose when you want solid, precise, and well-controlled bass. Designed for sound reinforcement professionals, this 15-inch speaker fits perfectly into powerful two-way speakers, or as a dedicated bass and midrange driver in a three-way system.

It features a 3-inch copper voice coil mounted on a fiberglass mount, capable of handling 400W continuous power (and up to 800W peak power). With an Xmax of ±4 mm, it handles power without flinching while maintaining good linearity, allowing it to be pushed without sacrificing sound quality. Its frequency response extends from 40 Hz to 2000 Hz, with a recommended cutoff around 1600 Hz, making it very versatile.

Its ferrite driver generates a dense magnetic field (1.2 T) and a BL of 20.6 T·m, ensuring good control of the cone, even at high volumes. The result: a sensitivity measured at 99.2 dB, and excellent low-end efficiency, with deep, responsive bass, without drag.

Construction-wise, it's solid: aluminum basket, accordion fabric surround, and a standard format for integration into subwoofers. It weighs approximately 8.9 kg, has an external diameter of 394 mm, and is 163 mm deep, which is reasonable for such a responsive 15" driver.

The 15PL40 is a well-balanced transducer, designed for serious setups where precision and reliability are as important as power. A truly excellent choice for building a solid foundation for your sound system.
