The high power Blackline F15+ is a high performance, wide-
bandwidth system in a compact and efficient package. Extended
frequency response is provided by a new 15” (380mm) LF
driver and a new 1.4” (35mm) exit compression driver
mounted on a rotatable 80˚ x 50˚ constant directivity HF horn.
The new LF driver features a tough, water resistant cone and a
lightweight, high BL, neodymium motor system with
inside/outside coil windings for improved heat transfer. An
aluminium demodulating ring reduces distortion and improves
midrange clarity at high levels and increased excursion is
available via a triple roll surround and deep motor structure.
The new HF driver utilises a titanium diaphragm with
controlled break-up modes for improved sonic performance at
high frequencies and the crossover design and LF cone profile
have been optimised to match the directivity of the HF horn
and LF section through the crossover region.
