With its two-way design, comprising a 15" woofer and 1" compression driver, each the box pro DSX 115 is an active full-range loudspeaker that can produce an immense 500W RMS. Its Class D power amp can produce an extraordinarily high sound pressure level (SPL) of 136dB, with a frequency range going all the way from a pleasingly deep 43Hz to an impressive 19kHz, almost at the upper limit of human hearing, meaning that sometimes a dedicated bass speaker isn't even necessary. The loudspeaker can always be adjusted for optimum settings, with a wealth of configuration options that are all accessible via the internal DSP's backlit display. The DSX 115's combination of power and DSP features really make it stand out in this price category.
Each flexible the box pro DSX 115 unit has two adjustable inputs in XLR/jack combo format, and there is also a 3.5mm mini-jack to act as an AUX input. The XLR output, on the other hand, serves as a thru to pass on the line audio signal. The device's DSP offers – alongside the digital stereo levels on the display – a number of internal audio processing features: There are four presets for the Music, Live, Voice, and DJ settings, alongside which a three-band equaliser makes it easy to individualise the sound settings. If the box pro DSX 115 is being used with subwoofers, there is also the option of activating the low-cut filter.
It's not just pro sound engineers and battle-hardened roadies who will be able to make best use of the DSX 115: Because it's both simple to work with and easily transportable, it's very much a flexible and undemanding operator. The enclosure is admittedly not light, weighing in at just over 23kg, but the immensely robust wooden construction means it's ideally suited to life on the road. Thanks to the 35mm stand flange, the DSX 115 can also be mounted on a speaker stand, although the speaker can also be used simply standing up vertically or as a horizontal monitor wedge, while the carrying handles on the sides make it easy to move around.

Anyone using a single the box pro DSX 115 device is already equipped to provide up to 100 people with sound. And because the speaker has both an integrated microphone preamp and an AUX input, wedding singers and solo entertainers need nothing more than a single DSX 115 to entertain their guests with their vocals over a backing track. Equally, another unit can be used to make a stereo setup that can, logically enough, be used as sound reinforcement for around 200 people. Even without a dedicated subwoofer, a pair of DSX 115s is a great solution for sizeable family gatherings like weddings or garden parties, as well as making a powerful pub PA for singer-songwriters and similar. If a mixing desk is added to the arsenal, a couple of these versatile speakers will suffice for smaller bands playing gigs in pubs and bars. What is more, nightclubs and other live music venues can make use of this active speaker's angled construction to lay it on its side so it can function as a monitor wedge.
