The COMPANION 15 is a two-way speaker system comprised of a 15" Black Widow BWX woofer with a Kevlar® impregnated cone, and a 44XT compression driver loaded onto a CH® 7 constant directivity horn. The COMPANION 15 has a trapezoidal shaped enclosure, which reduces the build-up of standing waves inside the enclosure, which minimizes mid-bass and mid-range colorations due to the cabinet. It is constructed of 3/4" void-free plywood and is covered with a durable black carpet. The enclosure corners are reinforced with polymer caps, and a black powder-coated expanded metal grille covers the lower half of the system to protect the woofer from external damage. An SA-1 stand mount adaptor is built-in for ease of speaker stand use. As shown in figure 1, the selected drivers in the COMPANION 15 combine to give a smooth frequency response from 56 Hz to 19 kHz. Power Handling There are many different approaches to power handling ratings. Peavey rates this loudspeaker system's power handling using a full-range form of the AES Standard 2-1984.
