15 Inch Subwoofers
15 inch subwoofers are for maximum bass and SPL, in cars and vans with plenty of space for a large enclosure.
Choose from Kicker CompR and L7, JL Audio W0, Rockford Fosgate Punch, and SPL drivers from Vibe Black Death, Edge and Ground Zero. Each driver needs an enclosure and a powerful mono amplifier. Browse all car subwoofers, or have your system fitted at our Nottingham workshop.
15 Inch Subwoofers FAQs
Q: What size box does a 15 inch subwoofer need?
A: 15 inch subs need large enclosures, often 2.5 cubic feet or more. Each driver's Specification tab or manual gives the recommended sealed and ported volumes.
Q: Is a 15 inch sub too big for my car?
A: It suits estates, SUVs, vans and cars where you can give up most of the boot. For smaller cars, a 10 or 12 inch sub is usually the better fit.
Q: What is a dual voice coil subwoofer?
A: A dual voice coil (DVC) sub has two coils that can be wired in series or parallel, giving more ways to match your amplifier's impedance.
Q: What amplifier do I need?
A: Match the sub's RMS power rating to the amplifier's RMS output at the final impedance, not the peak figure. High-power 15 inch subs also need heavy gauge power cable and a strong electrical system.
Q: Can CEN fit my subwoofer?
A: Yes. We supply and fit subwoofers and amplifiers at our Beeston, Nottingham workshop.
