The Blackline X15 is a very high-output, wide-bandwidth, two-way system equally suited to portable live sound
applications and fixed installations. It features a high-specification 15” (380mm) low frequency drive unit and a 1.4”
(35mm) exit compression driver mounted on a user-rotatable 80° x 50° constant directivity horn.

The 15” (380mm) LF driver has a lightweight 4” (100mm) voice coil and flux demodulation rings to reduce distortion at
high excursions. Its neodymium motor system combines high sensitivity with low weight and advanced cooling reduces
power compression to negligible levels. The 1.4” (35mm) exit HF driver has a 3” (75mm) pure titanium dome and
ultra-high flux neodymium motor system for maximum efficiency. The internal LF/HF crossover is switchable between
passive or bi-amp operation, depending on user requirements.
+
The X15 is the perfect solution for very high-power applications where flexibility, ease of installation and speed of
deployment are important factors. The versatile, multi-angle enclosure and rotatable horn facilitate either horizontal
or vertical orientation, and comprehensive brackets support the full variety of mounting options – including surface,
ceiling and pole mount. Integral M8 inserts for simple eyebolt suspension increase the options even further. In its
horizontal configuration, the X15+ is also ideal as a very high-output stage monitor.

When used in bi-amp mode, or with a subwoofer such as the Blackline S18+ or S218+, it is recommended that the X15+
is used with the Martin Audio DX1.5 or DX2 controller. When operated as a passive system, it may be used without a
controller, but will benefit from the DX1.5 or DX2's EQ and limiter functions.
