The Titan-815LX speaker kit for home theater use.
The Titan-815LX utilizes an Eminence 15" woofer with great bass performance while allowing for crossover points as low as 40hz without losing the ability to keep up with massive subwoofer systems in large rooms. This is a long throw pro-audio woofer with a larger rear vent, stiffer surround, and huge magnet for extra power handling. It's capable of handling high power levels while still remaining linear. Add a bit of boost down low to really give you that 'kick in the chest' feeling you've been missing with other speakers.
The 8" Celestion midrange keeps vocals crystal clear at any volume. It's a sealed back design that doesn't require a separate enclosure behind it, so the entire horn section can simply sit on the top of your 15" woofer enclosure. The horn can then be independently rotated while leaving the woofer section in place. This allows you to quickly tweak the angle that your speakers are aiming.
The LX model also uses a Celestion compression driver with a high powered neodymium magnet and a larger voice coil and diaphragm. While those attributes give this driver the ability to play at higher output levels with low distortion, the well optimized design of the driver is also proven to provide superior levels of detail and clarity at all volume levels. No titanium diaphragms are used here. Only smoother sounding PETP diaphragms so you don't have that harsh ear piercing sound people often worry about.
Pulling everything together is the crossover network. The designer gave it a very flat frequency response with a slight bump on the bottom end to provide a little extra kick that a speaker of this size should offer. The pro-audio components are highly efficient and don't require much power to play loud in a home environment. They're designed to handle much more power than you will ever send them, so even at high volumes in a home environment they aren't even breaking a sweat. This keeps distortion at absolute minimal levels while maintaining a clear and composed sound even at a high volume. What you end up with is a 3-way high impact, high energy speaker with a very wide dynamic range.
The photo of this kit is a bit deceiving and may look smaller than it actually is. The 2-way horn is 20" tall and is sitting behind a 15" woofer. The second kit photo has a Coke can in it for size perspective. Yes, this is an expensive kit using expensive parts. But you will never max out this speakers potential in a home theater and it will keep up with even the largest subwoofer systems.

Quality Control: Every compression driver gets a professional 5 point quality inspection test before we package your kits. We also frequency match them so that your set of speakers all sound the same. We don't know of any other retailer that completes this level of quality control. We do this because you probably don't have the testing gear or parameters for all of these tests. Because of this type of quality control it can take longer than a week to package and ship your speaker kits.

Ordering Note: Minimum order is two. If you ordered one in the past and need one for a center, please contact customer support. Kits are sold as full kits, sorry no substitutions or subtractions. This kit ships for free but it does not include the optional horn brackets or the optional flat packs. If you need those, please order them at the same time you order the kits or contact me to let me know you will be ordering them later. Please allow extra time to package these kits because they have a lot of parts. If you live in a rural area or way out along the west coast, there could be extra shipping costs associated with these kits because they are quite large and heavy.
