The SA-15T Empty Speaker Cabinet gives you complete control over your PA setup, letting you install your preferred 15-inch woofer while providing a professional-grade titanium compression driver and crossover network. This build-it-yourself approach appeals to sound engineers, custom installers, and performers who want specific driver characteristics or need to match existing system components.

This empty cabinet comes pre-loaded with a 1.5-inch titanium compression driver featuring a 10 oz magnet and 1-inch throat, paired with a precision crossover network operating at 3 kHz with 12/18 dB per octave slopes. The crossover includes dual glass bulb tweeter protection to prevent costly driver damage during setup or unexpected signal spikes.

The 8-ohm nominal impedance cabinet features a 5/8-inch plywood front panel and accommodates any 15-inch woofer with a 13 7/8-inch cutout diameter. At 34.7 pounds empty, the cabinet measures 29 inches tall by 18 inches wide by 15 inches deep, making it suitable for venues up to 200-300 people when loaded with an appropriate woofer and amplifier combination.

Common applications include live band PA systems, DJ setups, church sound reinforcement, and custom installation projects where specific woofer characteristics are required. The pole mount socket enables standard speaker stand mounting, while recessed plastic handles provide secure transport grip.

Dual 1/4-inch and dual Speakon input connectors offer flexible connection options with included internal wiring. Ships with one-year warranty and fast delivery from Seismic Audio.

Frequently Asked Questions

What 15-inch woofer should I use in this empty cabinet?

Choose a woofer with 13 7/8-inch mounting diameter and 8-ohm impedance to match the cabinet and crossover specifications. Popular choices include full-range PA woofers rated for 200-400 watts RMS, depending on your venue size and amplifier power. The titanium compression driver handles frequencies above 3 kHz, so your woofer selection determines the cabinet's low and midrange performance.

How many people can this speaker cabinet cover when loaded?

With an appropriate 15-inch woofer and adequate amplifier power, this cabinet typically handles 200-300 people indoors or 150-200 people in outdoor settings. The actual coverage depends heavily on your woofer choice, amplifier power, and venue acoustics. Pair with a subwoofer for full-range music applications in larger venues.

What cables do I need to connect this speaker?

You'll need speaker cables with either 1/4-inch TS plugs or Speakon connectors to run from your amplifier to the cabinet. Speakon connections provide more secure contact and are preferred for professional applications. The cabinet includes internal wiring between the input connectors and crossover network, so no additional internal wiring is required.

Does this cabinet work for both live bands and DJ applications?

Yes, this empty cabinet works for both applications once loaded with an appropriate woofer. For live bands, choose a woofer optimized for vocal clarity and instrument reproduction. DJ applications often benefit from woofers with enhanced low-mid response for dance music. The titanium compression driver provides consistent high-frequency response for either use case.

Can I use this cabinet without adding a woofer?

No, this cabinet requires a 15-inch woofer installation to function as a complete speaker system. The included titanium compression driver only reproduces frequencies above 3 kHz, so you need a woofer to handle the critical vocal and instrument frequencies below the crossover point. The cabinet is specifically designed as a build-your-own project.
