Wharfedale - Tourus+ 15

With 350W RMS into 8 ohms, the Wharfedale Pro Tourus+15 is no half-measure. Its 15" driver delivers an extended response from 42 Hz to 20 kHz, enough to cover a lot of ground without dispersing. The constant directivity design ensures balanced dispersion, so your audience will have no excuse for ignoring the mix.

This model incorporates 2 ∅35 mm base plates (at 0° or -3°) and 5 M8 attachment points, making it considerably easier to integrate in fixed or mobile installations. Do you want to set it down, tilt it or hang it? It says yes to everything. The trapezoidal enclosure and 45° angle mean it can also be placed on the floor as a stage backdrop.

The Tourus+15 boasts a muscular but practical construction. Its powder-coated steel grille protects the drivers without turning the speaker into an anvil (it weighs less than 20 kg). The handles are well placed, and even in its optional padded bag, it's easy to carry. What's more, its design is sober. No bling, just sound.

Whether you're using it with an active subwoofer or as part of a complete passive system, this loudspeaker will find its place without fuss. The Speakon connection (input + output) remains simple and effective, like a good joke on a TV set: it doesn't make the whole show, but it's indispensable.
