Scan-Speak Discovery 15M/4624G00 5.5" Woofer

The Scan-Speak Discovery 15M/4624G00 5.5" Woofer represents a superb choice for audiophiles and DIY speaker builders seeking refined midbass performance. As part of the acclaimed Discovery series, this driver delivers exceptional clarity and detail, making it an ideal foundation for high-fidelity two-way or multi-way loudspeaker systems. Its carefully engineered design ensures natural, uncoloured reproduction across the critical midbass region.

This versatile woofer excels in a variety of applications, from compact bookshelf speakers to more elaborate floor-standing designs. With a low total Q factor (Qts) of 0.43, it is perfectly suited for sealed or vented enclosures, allowing for precise tuning and controlled bass response. The high sensitivity of 92.4 dB (1m/2.83V) means it pairs efficiently with a wide range of amplifiers, delivering dynamic and engaging sound even at moderate power levels.

Technically, the 15M/4624G00 features a 24.89 mm voice coil and a nominal impedance of 4 ohms, with a DC resistance of 3.2 ohms. Its low voice coil inductance (Le) of 0.23 mH contributes to extended high-frequency response and minimal distortion. The mechanical Q (Qms) of 5.62 and electrical Q (Qes) of 0.47 further underline its controlled behaviour. With a resonance frequency (Fs) of 1 Hz and an equivalent volume (Vas) of 3.68 litres, this driver offers flexibility for compact designs while maintaining linear excursion (Xmax) of 1.5 mm for accurate transient reproduction.

In summary, the Scan-Speak Discovery 15M/4624G00 is a meticulously engineered midbass woofer that combines high sensitivity, low distortion, and versatile enclosure compatibility. It is an excellent choice for discerning builders aiming to achieve detailed, articulate bass and midrange in their next project.
