SSP215-MK3

BASSBOSS

For the touring professional who requires full output with limited space, the BASSBOSS SSP215-MK3 is a dual 15" powered subwoofer that delivers massive low-end frequencies effortlessly, yet takes up 50% less space than the SSP218-MK3. The SSP215-MK3 is a vented direct radiating subwoofer that offers amazing versatility and practicality for those who need a lot of low end for a wide variety of applications, delivering massive output reliably, consistently, and with great fidelity.The SSP215-MK3 is equipped with high-power long-excursion drivers in a carefully optimized cabinet that provides sufficient volume and port area to allow its 15" woofers to deliver as much depth as possible. It provides consistent output with minimal thermal compression thanks to the several effective but transparent protection systems that are part of the integrated signal processing. The SSP215-MK3 includes a Neutrik powerCON True1 TOP power cable.What's New MK3 Amp UpdateThere are all-new amplifiers in the MK3 series. Total power has increased; however, power allocated to woofers increased substantially. The higher output voltages provide more impact. Universal input voltage compatibility of 90 to 250V provides more flexibility. Waterproof connections provide more peace of mind.MK3 Enhanced DSPThe MK3 features an all-new 96 kHz DSP. The push-button presets have doubled from 4 to 8, and up to 100 presets can now be stored in the DSP and loaded via LAN. The comprehensive suite of processing includes meticulously tuned equalization, all necessary high-pass and low-pass filters, and multiple protection systems and limiters to prevent driver overload in as many ways as possible.ControlBASS SoftwareControlBASS software supports an essentially unlimited number of possible BASSBOSS-developed or customized user presets which integrate seamlessly and coherently with all other BASSBOSS products for effortlessly perfect setups. The latest in DSP programming developments can be added via easy remote updating.SSP215-MK3 Design The SSP215-MK3 is equipped with extremely rugged, very high power handling long excursion drivers in a carefully optimized cabinet that provides sufficient volume and port area to allow its 15 woofers to deliver as much depth as possible. It provides consistent output with minimal thermal compression, thanks to the several effective but transparent protection systems that are part of the integrated signal processing. The multiple protection systems work independently to prevent over-excursion and thermal overload of the voice coils, and minimize long-term thermal compression. Since they work independently, reacting to different stimuli, their effect on the transient response and peak output of the loudspeaker is almost imperceptible.The SSP215-MK3 achieves an extremely flat frequency response, measuring 1 dB from 35 Hz to 100 Hz. No equalization is utilized to achieve this response. Unlike designs that require equalization to achieve their specified response, the SSP215-MK3 s response is part of the cabinet design, so that the sensitivity of the speaker remains consistent through its operating range. This allows it to achieve a higher SPL at lower frequencies, using less power than systems that require bass-boost EQ to achieve their stated response. This design philosophy is how BASSBOSS subs can deliver more SPL at lower frequencies without needing more power.Robust Construction and Versatility The cabinets are made from 18mm birch plywood, are extensively braced, and feature four ergonomic recessed handles. They are coated in weatherproof high-pressure polyurea, and the drivers are protected by a powder coated perforated steel grille. The cones also feature a waterproof coating.Versatility is one of the SSP215-MK3s greatest strengths. The performance of the SSP215 can be compared to almost any double 18 sub on the market but will fit where they don t. Taking up 50% less space than the SSP218, and delivering almost the same sound levels ov
