About the Descend DN15

The Definitive Technology Descend DN15 is a premium powered subwoofer designed for home theater and music systems, delivering massive bass output equivalent to two 18-inch ported subwoofers. It employs unique 3XR Architecture with a front-firing 15-inch long-throw polypropylene woofer and dual opposing side-firing 15-inch 3XR/XBR passive radiators in a bass-reflex (passive radiator) sealed enclosure. Powered by a 500-watt RMS (1500-watt peak) Class H digital amplifier and advanced 56-bit DSP with three EQ modes (Flat, Deep, Loud), it provides clean, extended bass response at high volumes with Intelligent Phase Control (0/45/90/135/180/-135/-90/-45 degrees). Connections include LFE RCA, stereo RCA line-level, and high-level speaker inputs. Controls for volume, phase, low-pass filter, and EQ ensure seamless integration. Reviews praise its exceptional clarity, low distortion (under 10% THD even at max levels), sharp transients, and ability to handle demanding content without audible artifacts.
