Barefaced Audio Returns to 15-Inch Bass Cabinets With the 15:24 and 30:24
Barefaced Audio got its start by building bass cabinets with 15″ drivers, and now the company is getting back to it with a limited run of two models. The 15:24 and 30:24 are 1×15″ and 2×15″ configurations, respectively, that measure 24 inches wide to sit under SVTs or other big tube heads.
“The 15:24 brings you that fat punchy heavyweight 15″ sound in a comically lightweight and fairly compact cab whilst its big brother the 30:24 is a fullbore 2×15″ that can thunder through the loudest rock band without ever degenerating into boomy mud – and thanks to the neo drivers and the uniquely stiff, strong yet light Barefaced enclosure it weighs only 48 lbs (22 kg)!”
Both models feature 15-inch cast frame neo magnets, a monocoque Spaceframe enclosure, and an oversized port for dynamic depth. Barefaced will offer each in a “T” model, which adds a low distortion tweeter with a variable HF control. The 15:24 is rated at 600 watts RMS, and the 30:24 doubles it to 1,200 watts.
