#3 Vue Audiotechnik H-15: $6,500 eBay
Same family: the Vue Audiotechnik H-5 (smaller model, rated 3.6/5), the Vue Audiotechnik H-8 (smaller model, rated 3.6/5) and the Vue Audiotechnik h-12 (smaller model, rated 3.8/5).
Pros: A premium powered 15 inch PA speaker with a beryllium compression driver, clear sound and a feedback resistant pattern for touring. A 15-inch active PA speaker with a beryllium-diaphragm compression driver, a 136dB peak SPL and a 6.1 preference score with a subwoofer. Low-quality vendor data returns roughly 70Hz extension, and it continues the h-Class’s narrow, feedback-resistant 60° x 40° pattern from the Vue Audiotechnik h-12. Measured bass extension of 90Hz (-3dB).
Cons: At 38kg and a $6500 asking price this is among the heaviest and most expensive 15-inch boxes here, aimed at rental and touring use rather than casual portability. The low-quality measurement source limits confidence in the exact result.

Frequency Response
How the Vue Audiotechnik H-15 measures across the audible range. A flatter listening window (the sound arriving straight at you) is more neutral: peaks sound forward or harsh, dips sound recessed. The estimated in-room response adds what a typical room does, and there a gentle, even tilt down toward the treble is ideal. Both curves are shifted so their 300 Hz to 3 kHz average sits at 0 dB.
Measurement data: spinorama.org, measured by the manufacturer.
EQ for a Neutral Response
No EQ preset: the best simple EQ we can fit to these measurements improves the predicted preference score by less than 0.2. The listening window is already close to flat, and what holds the score back, such as narrow ripple in the response or uneven output off-axis, is not something EQ can fix without making it worse elsewhere.
