Dayton Audio SS15-PR 15" Signature Series Passive Radiator
The Dayton Audio SS15-PR 15" Signature Series Passive Radiator is built for serious low-frequency performance in large, high-output subwoofer systems. Perfectly paired with the SS15-22, this passive radiator makes it possible to achieve room-shaking bass extension without the turbulence, port noise, or impractical cabinet requirements of traditional vented designs. Ideal for home theater and high-powered music systems, the SS15-PR provides the stability and excursion capability required for maximum impact.
Signature Series Styling and Construction
The SS15-PR is constructed to visually and mechanically match its active counterpart, featuring the same robust cast aluminum frame, thick anodized aluminum cone, and high-roll rubber surround. From the front, it is indistinguishable from the SS15-22, giving systems a seamless, professional look. Its durable suspension and rigid cone are designed to withstand the extreme excursion needed to keep up with powerful, high-wattage subwoofers while maintaining clean, accurate motion.

Innovative Sandwich Mass Structure
At the heart of the SS15-PR is Dayton Audio’s Sandwich Mass Structure (SMS) tuning system. This unique approach positions all added mass between the spider and surround, where it moves in perfect symmetry with the diaphragm. Adjustments are simple and secure with a threaded bolt, wing nut, and nylock nut assembly, while the included five 116 g weights provide the flexibility needed to fine-tune enclosure performance with precision.

Engineered for high-output systems — the perfect partner for the SS15-22
For builders and designers aiming to extract maximum performance from high-output subwoofer systems, the Dayton Audio SS15-PR is the perfect solution. With its rugged construction, SMS tuning system, and seamless Signature Series styling, it enables powerful bass extension from enclosures designed for both home theater and music.
