1700 W RMS 3-way active column system with 15" subwoofer – Elokance

The Elokance Tower 15 Max is a 3-way active PA system designed for DJs, bands, sound engineers and event professionals seeking powerful, precise sound reproduction in a more compact format than a system fitted with an 18" subwoofer. With a total power output of 1,700 W RMS and a sound pressure level of up to 136 dB SPL, it offers significant dynamic headroom for parties, concerts, corporate events and installations requiring sustained sound levels.

Its 3-way design combines a 15-inch subwoofer with a 4-inch voice coil, a midrange section comprising four 6.5-inch drivers, and a 4.7-inch tweeter. This configuration effectively distributes the sound spectrum across the bass, midrange and high frequencies to achieve a balanced and detailed sound reproduction. Its frequency response ranges from 40 Hz to 20 kHz.

The Tower 15 Max features a Class D tri-amplification system that distributes power across the different frequency ranges: 1,000 W RMS for bass, 600 W RMS for midrange and 100 W RMS for treble. Each section thus has its own amplifier, which helps to maintain good sound definition and a comfortable power reserve, even at high volumes.

Its 48 kHz / 56-bit DSP optimises signal processing and offers five presets: Original, Live, Vocal, DJ and User. These profiles allow you to quickly adapt the sound reproduction to different applications, whether it’s a DJ set, a concert, a public address or a customised setup.

With a horizontal dispersion of 100° and a vertical dispersion of 40°, the Tower 15 Max ensures wide and controlled sound coverage. This coverage pattern is particularly well-suited to events where sound needs to be distributed evenly across a dance floor, in front of a stage or in a reception hall.

For professional installations, the system also features an RS485 control network with 2 RJ45 ports. This allows the system’s parameters to be controlled and adjusted remotely using the dedicated Elokance software – a handy feature when multiple systems are in use simultaneously or in installations requiring precise adjustments.

The connectivity includes an XLR/6.35 mm jack combo line input, an XLR line output and speakON connections between the subwoofer and the column. Its 15 mm birch plywood construction provides the robustness needed to withstand the regular assembly, disassembly and transport associated with event performances.

Weighing a total of 66.5 kg – split between a 39 kg subwoofer and a 27.5 kg column – the Tower 15 Max offers an attractive balance between acoustic power and ease of transport. Its 15-inch format enables it to deliver substantial sound reserves whilst remaining more manoeuvrable than a setup featuring an 18-inch subwoofer.
