Thanks to its built-in amplification system and custom woofer, the CVA-115 active subwoofer offers exceptional low-frequency response.

All the I/O You Need

This high-performance sub features 2x XLR and 2x 1/4-inch TRS input connectors, and a completely variable low-pass filter for precise and accurate control of sub-bass frequencies. There's a Link Out XLR and 1/4" output and Master/Slave switch for daisy-chaining multiple CVA subwoofers, and dual XLR and 1/4" Thru outputs to feed your top boxes. For precise control across the frequency spectrum, the CVA-115 boasts a four-position high-pass filter that controls what frequency range is passed to your top speaker cabinets. Cut out frequencies below 65 Hz, 85 Hz, 130 Hz, or pass full-range signal. No matter what top cabinets you're using, you'll have total control over your sound.

Super Heavy-Duty Construction

At first glance, you can see that the CVA-115 means business. Built like a tank, the 1400-Watt, 1x15-inch active sub is made of solid hardwood sealed with durable Coolex polyurethane paint. On the front of the unit, the cast aluminum grille doubles as a heat read more sink to minimize power compression while optimizing driver performance.

Small-Scale Size, Huge Sound

Weighing 98 pounds each, the CVA-115 isn't exactly light. But despite its heavy-duty construction, it's still considered a portable sub because of its smaller than normal footprint: although the CVA-115 is a 15-incher, it could easily pass for a 12-inch subwoofer. Its compact size makes it simple to transport and set up.

Socket To Me

For a full-range performance, the powered subwoofer has a top-mounted 35 mm pole socket that accommodates a satellite speaker -- perfect for mounting Cerwin-Vega CVA-28 powered speakers as top boxes.

I want be looking, found what I needed in this product
Sound
Very strong and clear, I used this sub for the first time on New Years Eve. Matched with a pair of Yamaha DSR 15s the Ballroom of 700 people where applauding the sound even the Comedian and Saxophonist was blown away by how good they sounded. The sub is a must and will be buying a second one for very large venues I DJ although one is more than enough. Cerwin Vega got this one right.
