The Velodyne DD-15 is a 15-inch forward-firing Digital Drive series servo-controlled subwoofer designed to deliver very deep, low-distortion bass with precise room integration. It uses a Kevlar-reinforced cone and dual tandem voice coil, powered by a 1250W RMS Class D amplifier (3000W dynamic). Digital Drive room management with supplied measurement microphone and on-screen display allows detailed parametric EQ, real-time frequency response management, and multiple listening presets for movies, jazz/classical, pop/rock, and action/adventure. Connectivity includes line-level RCA and balanced XLR inputs/outputs plus speaker-level inputs, with variable low-pass crossover, adjustable phase, and polarity control for flexible system integration.
