Velodyne Impact X 15” Subwoofer

The Velodyne Impact X 15” Subwoofer has been engineered to deliver commanding low-frequency performance for demanding home cinema and high-energy music systems.

As the flagship model within the Impact X range, the 15-inch version offers significantly deeper bass extension, greater output capability, and enhanced room-filling performance designed specifically for larger living spaces and dedicated cinema environments.

Combining a newly developed high-excursion 15-inch driver with a carefully optimised rear slot bass reflex system, the Impact X 15 produces exceptionally powerful and controlled bass down to an impressive 18Hz.

Its robust MDF cabinet construction helps minimise resonance while preserving precision and clarity during even the most demanding playback. Finished in an elegant flat matte black vinyl, the subwoofer integrates seamlessly into modern interiors while delivering the scale, energy, and cinematic authority needed to fully experience films, gaming, concerts, and high-impact music recordings.

Advanced 15-Inch Driver with High Excursion Performance

At the centre of the Velodyne Impact X 15” Subwoofer is a newly engineered 15-inch front-firing woofer designed for exceptional output, control, and low-frequency extension. The high-excursion driver uses a durable polypropylene membrane with a convex cone profile that helps maintain structural rigidity and accurate movement during intense bass passages.

A powerful dual ferrite magnet system works together with a large four-layer 76mm voice coil to provide outstanding driver control, improved thermal handling, and excellent long-term reliability. The double-vented basket structure further assists airflow and cooling efficiency while reducing unwanted mechanical noise.

This advanced driver system allows the Impact X 15 to reproduce explosive cinematic effects, deep electronic bass, and large-scale orchestral recordings with impressive realism and authority. Bass remains tight, controlled, and highly articulate, even at elevated listening levels where lesser subwoofers may begin to lose precision or composure.

High-Powered Class D Amplification and DSP Control

The Velodyne Impact X 15” Subwoofer incorporates a highly efficient Class D amplifier capable of delivering an enormous 550 watts RMS and up to 1000 watts of dynamic peak power. This substantial amplifier reserves provide the control and headroom required for realistic low-frequency reproduction within large listening spaces and demanding home theatre environments.

Velodyne’s anti-clipping circuitry continuously monitors performance to minimise distortion and maintain clean, accurate bass even during extreme dynamic peaks. The Impact X 15 also benefits from advanced DSP control featuring nine selectable sound presets, easily adjustable using the supplied remote control.

These DSP modes help tailor bass performance for different room acoustics, listening preferences, and content types while assisting in reducing the impact of problematic room resonances. Adjustable crossover controls and phase switching further enhance integration flexibility, ensuring balanced and seamless bass performance within a wide range of audio systems.

Part of the Versatile Velodyne Impact X Range

While the Velodyne Impact X 15” Subwoofer represents the most powerful model within the series, the wider Impact X family also includes compact 10-inch and mid-sized 12-inch alternatives designed to suit different room sizes and listening requirements.

The Impact X 10 offers excellent low-frequency performance from a smaller cabinet ideal for compact music systems or smaller living spaces, while the Impact X 12 provides greater depth and output for larger stereo and home cinema installations.

All three models share the same core Velodyne design philosophy, combining efficient front-firing drivers, bass reflex loading, compact cabinet dimensions, and high-efficiency Class D amplification.

The Impact X 15 expands on these foundations with deeper bass extension, increased amplifier power, enhanced cabinet construction, and more advanced DSP functionality, making it the perfect choice for listeners who demand maximum cinematic impact and large-scale low-frequency performance.

Robust Construction with Flexible System Integration

The Velodyne Impact X 15” Subwoofer combines serious acoustic engineering with practical integration features and durable cabinet construction designed for long-term performance. Its heavily reinforced enclosure uses 22mm MDF panels with an extra-thick 30mm front baffle to reduce vibration and unwanted resonance while supporting the powerful 15-inch driver assembly.

Despite its substantial bass capabilities, the subwoofer remains straightforward to integrate thanks to gold-plated RCA stereo and LFE inputs, high-level speaker connections, and simple power management options including Off, Auto, and On modes.

Measuring 44cm wide, 48cm high, and 59cm deep, the Impact X 15 maintains a relatively manageable footprint for a subwoofer capable of this level of performance. The dimmable display helps preserve a discreet appearance within darkened cinema rooms, while the elegant matte black finish complements modern audio and home entertainment systems beautifully.
