VHD2.16
VHD Subwoofer Enclosure
The VHD2.16 double 15" subwoofer is a development of KV2 Audio’s ES 2.5 design that has become a standard for compact, high-output subwoofer devices. Acoustical design is based on extreme loading of asymmetrical chambers delivering exceptional output and control. The cabinet is built to the same robust standards as the VHD4.18 and delivers output in excess of 140dB when configured in a pair. It also functions as a very effective upper bass cabinet when used alongside the ultra-low frequency VHD1.21 or 2.21 subwoofers as part of a five-way active system.
Features
Professional Baltic birch construction with a highly resistant polymer coating
Four full-length pieces of fly-track (two per side) and one five-point pull-back piece on the rear of the cabinet
