About the D15-Chimera SC
The HSU Research D15-Chimera SC combines the standalone sealed D15-Chimera subwoofer ($1799) with the optional D15-SC Supercharger ($499), creating the world's first supercharged dual 15-inch ported subwoofer. Featuring dual side-firing/opposed 15-inch woofers powered by a 1200W RMS amplifier, it offers exceptional mid-bass punch and deep low-end extension. The modular design allows easy installation and flexibility: run sealed for precision or add the Supercharger for ported performance with 2-4 configurable ports, achieving extension down to 14Hz. Balanced XLR, unbalanced RCA, and speaker-level inputs ensure compatibility with high-end audio and home theater systems. CEA-2010 measurements show output up to 126.9 dB in ported mode, rivaling high-end competitors at a fraction of the cost.
