Overview
The NEXO P15 is a compact point source speaker with a 15 inch neodymium LF driver and a 3 inch HF driver in a coaxial layout, so the sound is coherent at every listening distance. A recessed rear switch changes it between 2 way passive and 2 way active, with up to 141 dB peak in active mode. HF coverage can be set to 60° x 60°, 90° x 40° or an asymmetrical pattern with interchangeable flanges.
The curved Baltic birch and poplar plywood cabinet can stand upright on a pole or lie on its side as a wedge, with threaded inserts on the back and sides for mounting accessories. The Touring version has handles with NL4 connectors built in and a steel grille, and Installation versions come in custom RAL colours with an IP54 rating. The P15 suits larger churches, theatres, live music venues and hire companies as a main speaker or a high output wedge, and it pairs with the matching L18 sub.

Forefront Tip
For loud stages, run P15 wedges in active mode from an NXAMP so you get the extra headroom and the amp's protection. As a main system, fly the P15 over an L18 sub, which shares its footprint, and use the PS flange when you need the coverage to widen towards the front rows.
