Wharfedale TITAN 15Z

TITAN 15Z  - Our highest power handling passive 15" Titan - ever!

Titans are used around the world in almost every type of pro audio application immaginable. The design and versatility has made Titan a favourite for installers and performers but.... we all like MORE POWER!

Do not be deceived by familiar looks. The Titan 15Z may appear cosmetically to be the same as our Titan X15 - but, it is what is inside that matters.

Titan 15Z features extreme power handling transducers with high electrical sensitivity. This results in unimaginable power handling specifications and remarkable SPL. Custom built Wharfedale Pro drivers are what makes this possible.

The 15Z features an enormous 4” LF voice coil for breath-taking power handling capabilities along with an enhanced compression driver with a 2” coil­.

Huge LF voice coils
The Titan 15Z features a massive 4" LF voice coil.
This efficient voice coil helps to deliver the massive 133.5dB Max SPL that the 15Z can supply.
Custom made in-house by Wharfedale Pro, this LF component also uses a rigid steel basket to ensure smooth delivery of mids and lows with minimal mechanical distortion.

Familiar Design
The Titan 15Z uses the same proven cabinet design as the Titan X15.
Using an organically shaped, internal laminar flow rib pattern polypropylene cabinet means that not only does it produce a strong and acoustically sound loudspeaker, the speaker is also extremely portable. This lends itself to applications such as for mobile DJs, bands and public address.
The trapezoidal design also allows for the 15Z to be placed on the floor and used as a wedge monitor.

The Titan 15Z also has multiple mounting options. With 10 x M8 threads and an integral 35mm pole socket, its easy to install the Titan 15Z into any Environment


IRIS X compression driver technologies
The coil size and electrical sensitivity of a loudspeaker transducer is critical to its performance. Titan Z loudspeakers now include our proprietary IRIS X design which delivers Increased coil Radius and Increased electrical Sensitivity. The radius of the coil ensures smooth heat dissipation during prolonged high volume use, while the increased electrical sensitivity ensures that the transducer converts as much electrical power into sound output as the laws of physics allow.

A hot transducer wastes energy, risks damage and distorts. IRIS X reduces this through improved heat dissipation and improved efficiency.
In real-world terms, IRIS X transducers deliver higher SPL with less distortion. They lead the market with specifications and are designed and built entirely within Wharfedale Pro.

Increased Radius Increased Sensitivity


Moisture resistant LF materials
Indoor and Outdoor Installation
Although the product weight and rubberised handles are perfect for the mobile musician, this technology also lends itself to installations where weight is an issue, not to mention that the polypropylene material and moisture proof woofers can withstand outdoor conditions.
Additional protection can be found with the Titan Tourbags, custom made speaker bags with an unzippable front panel meaning your Wharfedale Pro loudspeaker is always protected.
