A Mighty Sub That's Mighty Portable!

If you're looking for an easy way to add thumpin' bass to your portable PA rig, then Turbosound's iQ15B powered subwoofer is right up your alley. This 3,000-watt, 15" subwoofer is a lot more then a bass-blasting machine. Loaded with cool features such as Klark Teknik digital signal processing and Ultranet digital audio connectivity, the iQ15B is high tech, but only in ways that actually make your job easier. What's more, lightweight Class D amplifier technology combined with conveniently back-mounted castors also serve to make the iQ15B one of the most portable subwoofers in its class.

Turbosound iQ15B Powered Subwoofer at a Glance:
  • Class D Klark Teknik power amplifier provides high output and low weight
  • Ultranet technology makes advanced integration with the rest of your gear easy
  • Flexible enough for live sound professionals, Durable enough for life on the road
Class D Klark Teknik power amplifier provides high output and low weight

A decade ago, if you've have told anyone here at Sweetwater that we'd someday carry a 3,000-watt, 15" powered subwoofer weighing under 70 lbs., we probably would have laughed out loud. But here it is, the Turbosound iQ15B, and it's an amazing way to beef up your live sound rig. Add to that the fact that the iQ15B is under 2' in any dimension and that it's got integrated castors on back (so it still sits flat) and you've got yourself one truly portable workhorse sub.

Ultranet technology makes advanced integration with the rest of your gear easy

Now let's focus on the technological side of the Turbosound iQ15B. The iQ15B features Ultranet communications connectivity via standard Cat 5 ethernet cable, which allows you to send digital signal to and from your Ultranet equipped mixer for maximum sound quality. If you're already familiar with Ultranet, then you already know how powerful and easy to use it is. If not, call your Sweetwater Sales Engineer for a full explanation. On top of that, the iQ15B includes Klark Teknik digital signal processing, which provides total control over your sound, including extremely cool speaker emulation.

Flexible enough for live sound professionals, Durable enough for life on the road

Urtranet connectivity isn't the only thing that makes the Turbosound iQ15B an extremely flexible live sound tool. A full-featured LCD interface and USB connectivity for software-based configuration make that aspect of the iQ15B totally easy to use. On an even more practical side, you get things like an integrated 36mm (1.417") pole mount and Neutrik powerCON connectors to make configuring your iQ15B powered subwoofer with other gear a breeze. Top it off with a rugged powder coated grille and sealed birch plywood enclosure, and you can take your iQ15B on the road, worry free.

Turbosound iQ15B Powered Subwoofer Features:
  • A front-loaded powered subwoofer that's perfect for portable PA and installation applications
  • 3,000 watts (peak) of power features Klark Teknik Class D technology for maximum output with minimum weight
  • 15" low-frequency driver with 4" voice coil and double suspension delivers a ton of output
  • Birch plywood enclosure provides incredibly punchy and focused bass
  • Klark Teknik digital signal processing provides total system control
  • Speaker modeling includes accurate models of industry standard speakers
  • Ultranet digital audio networking connects to mixers and other sources
  • Program settings via USB or with the onboard LCD
  • Semi-matt black paint finish and rugged powder-coated steel grille easily withstand life on the road
  • 1.417" (36mm) pole mount supports satellite speakers and top boxes
  • Back-mounted castors make transportation easy but still provide you with a stable base
  • Two channel XLR combo inputs with XLR link outputs make audio connections easy
  • Chainable Neutrik powerCON connectors add security to your power
Get the thumpin' bass where you need it with the Turbosound iQ15B powered subwoofer!

Turbosound iq15B

Let's keep it simple !
Freakin great !
One person can lift it out or into your vehicle !
It's perfect for any catering hall event you may have !
I paired it with RCF 745 MK4 tops !
So you know the system kicks !
Get your cover made from Tuki !
Unfortunately Turbosound doesn't make a great cover so when I made mine with Tuki last year now they have the proto type and design specs in their system.
Get the cover made with the pouch to store your power wire for the speaker. This way you will always know it's there !

I've just ordered another one after ten years. These are sweet. I had a couple other brand subs that were total trash and I'm tired of making excuses for them. I won't name the brand, 'cause I've never had a problem with any of their other stuff and still trust the name. I guess everyone designs a turkey now and then. These subs are not turkeys! They ROCK!

great sub at a great price

Excellent

Very very tight is the best way to describe it. In a 'boomie' room this box runs flat all the way to roll off when crossed over at 66hz. You can run the crossover higher depending on what you want, but watch the harmonics as it tends to 'push' instead of 'punch' if you try to go too high with it. Result is much better than expected with near zero tuning. Impressive. Also, the 3kw makes it sound like the amp simply has hold of the driver and won't let it go. Delightful. Full system is pairs of Milan 12 plus Milan 10 plus a pair of these IQ15b's summed mono. Loud, clear, accurate, and an easy, smooth listen. You don't hear the PA, only the sound, as it should be. Live analysis shows unusually flat, with the expected well mannered taper off above 8k..Happy customer, under-represented brand - had to order them sight unseen as nobody in Seattle had them (why not??). Well worth the risk. Compared to all the other brands I checked out for this little 'home' system - these are the only ones that didn't tear your ears off. Yamaha, JBL, Mackie, Bose, all of them can be hard to listen to. I would recommend Turbosound for anyone who is looking for high quality accuracy at a reasonable price point. Just because they are Music-Group, they are NOT Behringers, not by a longshot.

Impressed

I have to admit that I wasn't expecting much from these, because of their price and size. However, now after using them a few times, I am simply blown away. These give our classic rock band the low-end punch that I have been desperately looking for. Instead of having to turn the low end up to be heard, we now seem to have to turn it down a bit. Incredible power, sound, price, size, and weight. These are seriously hard to beat.
