The PRV 12MB1500FT has an excellent linear response, well controlled down to 75 Hz, which makes it a great option for 2-way cabinet systems that require strong BL magnet force and midbass punch. A great new addition to the Forte Series, where more power handling and less distortion on mid low mid bass frequencies is the key.
Highlights
High BL factor and Xmax for outstanding Low output
Rated at 1500 watts RMS Continuous Program Power
98.5 dB sensitivity, which makes it capable of generating a lot of output!
3.5″ Inside/Out CCAW voice coil wound on fiberglass former for hi-temp performance, 8 Ohm
Supporting the cone is a heavy duty spider M roll treated cloth surround, designed for high excursion applications to handle short bursts of excessive power without damage. A double silicon spider system ensures excellent control during large excursions of 1.50″ peak-to-peak excursion before damage.
A very strong ferrite magnetic structure of 25 mm guarantees dynamism and precision and a unique 3,5” inside/outside voice coil design provides a very high-power handling of 1500 Watts RMS of musical power, thanks to its dual forced cooling system guarantees a very efficient voice coil ventilation for minimum power compression.

*Nominal power handlingis defined as the maximum RMS power that the speaker can handle in a 2-hour test with a pink noise with 6dB of crest factor and a bandpass filter with 12db/oct tuned in its usable frequency range. **Continuous Program Power (RMS)is the maximum power that the speaker can handle considering a regular musical program using our recommended filters, this power can be used to define the optimum amplifier power to avoid a clean signal without clipping or saturation. ***Max Peak Poweris the maximum power operation for the speaker, this power is allowed just for a few fractions of a second, usually found just on the peaks of the music. Keeping this power for a little longer timer will damage the speaker.
