The V2-1596B is a two-way, full-range passive loudspeaker system built for professional fixed installations that demand high power, clarity, and precise coverage. Featuring a 15-inch LF driver and 1-inch HF driver, this speaker delivers extended low-frequency performance, smooth midrange, and articulate high-frequency response.
With its 90° x 60° dispersion pattern, the V2-1596B is ideal for acoustically reflective environments or venues that are deeper than they are wide. Its trapezoidal enclosure allows easy arraying with other units for larger sound systems, while Community's Dyna-Tech driver protection circuitry and ferrofluid-treated HF driver ensure long-lasting reliability under demanding conditions.
Engineered with Carbon Ring Cone Technology for 30% more piston area and improved LF excursion, the V2-1596B achieves high-output performance with reduced distortion. Multiple bracket options and M10 rigging points make installation flexible for houses of worship, theaters, clubs, and live performance spaces.
The V2-1596B pairs seamlessly with Community ALC404D amplified loudspeaker controllers for optimal tuning and protection, with higher-power ALC models also supported. Available in a durable black finish, this loudspeaker offers professional-grade performance at an affordable price.
