Peavey 15″ Powered Speaker System with Exclusive Quadratic Throat Waveguide Technology Dark Matter DM 115

The Peavey 15″ Powered Speaker System Dark Matter DM 115 is a premium-grade professional audio solution designed for live sound, DJs, musicians, and venues seeking unmatched performance, clarity, and durability. Combining cutting-edge DSP technology with robust construction, this two-way bi-amplified analog amp powered speaker system delivers powerful, crystal-clear audio across a wide range of applications.

At its core, the Dark Matter DM 115 is powered by a 15″ heavy-duty woofer and the highly respected DX 14 compression driver with a 1.4-inch titanium diaphragm, engineered to reproduce both low-end punch and detailed high frequencies with precision. This combination ensures deep, dynamic bass along with crisp, intelligible vocals and instruments, making it ideal for full-range live sound reinforcement.

Advanced DSP and EQ Flexibility

Equipped with DSP I/O operating at 96 kHz and 24 bits, the DM 115 uses low-jitter, professional-grade components to deliver pristine digital audio. With 64-bit double-precision DSP processing, the system maintains outstanding signal integrity. The speaker also features multiple factory preset EQ settings for the DSP crossover system, ensuring optimal performance for different venues and applications. For added customization, the user preset EQ storage provisions allow you to save and recall your own personalized settings, making this system adaptable to your unique sound requirements.

The dynamic bass boost function adds depth and power to your low-end frequencies, enhancing the overall listening experience without compromising clarity. This feature is particularly valuable for DJs and performers who want to energize their audience with impactful bass response.

Wide Coverage with Exclusive Technology

Peavey integrates its exclusive Quadratic Throat Waveguide technology, providing a wide 110° by 80° coverage pattern. This ensures consistent, even sound dispersion throughout the venue, whether you’re performing in a club, concert hall, or outdoor event. Every listener gets the same high-quality experience, regardless of their position in the audience.

Rugged Construction and Practical Design

The plastic injection-molded trapezoidal enclosure provides strength and durability while reducing overall weight. With dual rear corner angled sides, the DM 115 can also be used as a floor monitor, giving performers flexible stage setup options. A full-coverage perforated steel grille with powder coat finish adds long-lasting protection while maintaining a sleek, professional appearance.

For elevated placement, the cabinet includes a pole mount molded-in for 1 3/8″ diameter poles, ensuring easy integration with standard speaker stands.

Reliable Cooling and Connectivity

To handle demanding, high-output performance, the system is fan cooled for maximum reliability, preventing overheating during extended sessions. The input is via a combo female XLR and 1/4″ TRS phone jack with balanced input, offering versatile connections for microphones, mixers, and instruments. A convenient Mic/Line switch provides two different gain settings, making it adaptable to multiple sources. The thru output via a male XLR jack allows daisy-chaining to additional speakers for larger sound setups.
