Behringer PK115 Passive Loudspeaker

Behringer PK115 Passive 15-inch PA Loudspeaker

The Behringer PK115 delivers 800 watts of peak passive power from a 15-inch long-excursion woofer paired with a 1-inch compression driver on an ultrawide-dispersion exponential horn. Built for live sound, portable PA, monitor wedge, and house-of-worship use, this 2-way loudspeaker provides 96 dB maximum SPL across a 70 Hz to 35 kHz frequency range. The molded bass-reflex enclosure weighs 14.9 kg and houses custom-engineered transducers. Built-in wheels, ergonomic handles, a 35 mm pole socket, and rigging threads simplify setup.

Custom-Engineered Transducers and Link Output

What separates this cabinet from generic 15-inch boxes is the matched transducer set: Behringer designs both the LF driver and the 1-inch compression driver in-house rather than sourcing off-the-shelf components. The large-format exponential horn delivers 70° horizontal by 50° vertical coverage, so every seat hears the same mix. A speakON NL4 link output lets operators daisy-chain multiple cabinets from a single amplifier channel, eliminating long cable runs across the stage.

800W Peak Power with Custom 15-inch Woofer

Power handling and driver quality determine how loud and clean a passive cabinet can play. The 15-inch long-excursion low-frequency driver moves serious air for kick drums and bass-heavy material, while the 1-inch compression driver keeps vocals and cymbals articulate at the top end.

• Peak Power: 800 W — headroom for small-to-mid venue mains
• LF Driver: 15" long-excursion woofer — deep bass from a single 15-inch cone
• HF Driver: 1" compression driver — clear, detailed high-frequency reproduction on vocals and cymbals

Wide Frequency Range with 70° x 50° Dispersion

Coverage pattern and frequency response shape how evenly a PA fills a room. The PK115's ultrawide dispersion horn spreads sound across 70° horizontal and 50° vertical, reducing the number of cabinets needed for wide audience areas. Operating across 70 Hz to 35 kHz, the cabinet reproduces sub-bass fundamentals to airy high-frequency detail without aggressive rolloff.

• Frequency Range: 70 Hz – 35 kHz — full-bandwidth response for music and speech
• Maximum SPL: 96 dB — clean output levels for typical venue sizes
• Coverage Angle: 70° H x 50° V — wide dispersion fills rooms evenly without dead spots

Speakon Connectivity and Road-Ready Cabinet

Connection type and cabinet ergonomics matter for live sound operators running night after night. The PK115 uses locking speakON NL4 connectors for secure cable attachment, with both an input and a link output on the rear panel. Weighing 14.9 kg, the molded enclosure includes a top-mounted ergonomic handle and built-in wheels for transport between gigs.

• Inputs: Speakon — locking NL4 input plus link output for daisy-chaining
• Impedance: 8 Ohms — standard passive load compatible with most power amplifiers
• Weight: 14.9 kg — manageable for one-person load-in and load-out
• Pole Mount: 35 mm socket plus rigging threads — flexible mounting on stands or flown from truss

Ideal for Mobile DJs, Small Venues, and Houses of Worship

This cabinet is the right choice for mobile DJs, small-venue operators, and house-of-worship audio teams needing a high-output passive speaker at a budget-friendly price. Solo performers benefit from the 14.9 kg weight and built-in wheels, letting one person move the unit without a roadie. Small bands and churches get enough low-end punch from the 15-inch woofer to anchor a full band mix, while the ultrawide dispersion horn keeps coverage even across wide seating areas. Rental houses appreciate the speakON link output for multi-cabinet deployments from a single amp channel.
