The LF-4215 dual 15 inch (381mm) low frequency enclosure is designed specifically for cinema applications. Meeting cinema requirements for extended low frequency response differentiates the LF-4215 from more conventional “rock-and-roll” woofer systems. The LF-4215 covers the frequency range from 35 Hertz to 1000 Hertz, depending upon the high frequency system requirements. Close Coupled Woofers (CCW), with its tight spacing between woofers, improves coupling and keeps coverage angles wide over a greater frequency range than more widely spaced designs. The LF-4215-8 is an 8 ohm version of the standard 4 ohm LF-4215.
The two custom 400 watt, 15 inch transducers were developed especially for cinema use. They feature extremely large 4 inch (100mm) voice coils and a multi-vented pole piece to ensure cool operation, even at high power levels. Cooler temperatures increase transducer lifespan and decrease the problem of power compression at high power. An undercut pole piece ensures the voice coil operates in a Symmetrical Magnetic Gap (SMG), reducing second harmonic distortion.
The enclosure is constructed of high quality MDF panels and features Single Woofer Chambers (SWC, separate chambers for each transducer). In the rare event of a transducer failure, this prevents over-excursion of the remaining transducer caused by improper box loading. Large, Fully Radiused Ports (FRP) ensure smooth air flow through the ports, especially at higher power. This prevents potentially audible port turbulence noise. Both internal and external port openings are fully radiused.
With Symmetrical Port Loading (SPL), bass ports are evenly spaced on each side of the transducers, making internal pressure more uniform across the back surface of the transducer. This prevents the cone from being displaced to one side or another by unbalanced forces, reducing the chance of driving the voice coil out of the center of the gap at high power.
Three T-nuts in the top of the enclosure provide easy mounting of QSC’s HF-75 high frequency system, or MH-1075 mid-high system.
