Description

When tight, controlled low end is essential for building a professional sound system, musicians and engineers need a subwoofer that can keep pace with demanding venues and evolving setups. The Yamaha CXS15mk3 15" 1300W passive subwoofer answers with a proprietary long-excursion 15" driver, durable 3" voice coil and optimized band-pass cabinet that deliver deep, accurate bass down to 40Hz. Designed to pair seamlessly with Yamaha CXRmk3 loudspeakers, the CXS15mk3 helps create fully integrated sound systems with consistent low-frequency performance. Rugged polyurea-coated plywood construction and dual pole sockets support reliable transport and flexible deployment. In regular use, this sub anchors the low-frequency foundation with consistent strength, helping crews and performers achieve clear, powerful mixes night after night.

Long-Excursion Driver and System Integration

At the core of the CXS15mk3 is a proprietary long-excursion 15" low-frequency driver paired with a durable 3" voice coil designed for consistent performance under demanding conditions. SpeakON connectivity allows straightforward integration with professional amplifiers and processors, while Yamaha PX Series amplifiers offer dedicated presets for optimized system tuning. When combined with CXRmk3 loudspeakers, this system-focused design supports tight, controlled bass reproduction and consistent performance across long sets and varied venue environments.

Optimized Band-Pass Cabinet for Linear Low-End Response

The enclosure features high-grade plywood with a durable polyurea finish designed to withstand the rigors of transport and setup. Its optimized band-pass architecture, combined with large-diameter ports and a reinforced grille, helps reduce unwanted resonance and wind noise at higher output levels. The result is clean, controlled sub-bass with linear low-frequency performance that holds together during demanding performances, whether supporting DJs, live bands or drum-heavy program material.

Portable Design for Flexible System Deployment

Side handles and dual pole-mount sockets make the CXS15mk3 easy to position in a variety of live sound environments. Optional caster kits and protective covers help streamline load-ins while protecting the enclosure from wear. Designed for working musicians, mobile DJs and production crews, this practical construction supports efficient setup and dependable performance. For systems requiring focused low-frequency reinforcement and reliable portability, the Yamaha CXS15mk3 15" passive subwoofer delivers professional performance in a versatile format.
