Overview
Samson DB500P Passive PA Cabinet (500 Watts, 15 in.)
Concept 1: If you want the best sounding speaker system you have to start with the best sounding components. That's why the dB500P is loaded with a custom designed 15 in. Celestion woofer and matched with a super smooth 1 in. titanium HF driver for the best sound possible. Concept 2: You can never have enough power handling. Samson designed the dB500P for generous 500-watt power handling capacity. Concept 3: A speaker cabinet needs to be just about indestructible. The dB500a is the deal featuring a roadie-proof reinforced molded cabinet with steel grills, padded handles, flypoints, lockable pole mount, and angled sides for use as a floor monitor. Concept 4: You can never sound too good. The dB500P just might. Other features include 1/4 in. input and 8-ohm impedance.
The passive dB500 has many of the same features as Samson's popular dB500a, including the same rugged enclosure, and advanced drivers. A natural sounding fixed crossover is built-in, and the back panel features 1/4 in. and XLR connectors.
The dB500 speaker cabinet features an array of mounting options. Designed with floor monitoring in mind, they are also easily stacked or permanently installed. A 1 3/8 in. pole receptacle is built in, and 10 reinforced fly points are available.

"Spend a little more and buy a product that is better desighned."
First thing I will do is gut the speaker and replace the drivers with supported drivers and add some type of speaker protection. Only good thing about this speaker is the cabinet.
Sound
Sounds ok.
Features
None
Quality
Very poor desighn. Does not even have power protection. Go above reated power and you lost a speaker.
Value
You get what you pay for.
Manufacturer Support
Terrible customer service. Wont even pick up the phone, you must leave a voice mail and they will call you back when the speaker is obsolete.
