All of the rumble and wallop of Hollywood’s most action-packed blockbusters is yours from the potent Gold W12 Subwoofer, in which a 12" (305 mm) long-throw driver is reinforced by a pair of Auxiliary Bass Radiators (ABR) and powered by 600 W of Class D amplification. The power and scale this combination are capable of generating can be felt just as easily as it can be heard, thanks to its prodigious 20 Hz bass extension.
Features:
Three driver subwoofer system featuring two 200 mm ABR’s (Auxiliary Bass Radiators)
Punchy bass below 20 Hz
Ultra-long throw 12" driver featuring:
Dished C-CAM cone
Black pole and motor plates for effective heat radiation
Larger 75 mm diameter voice coil – black anodised to radiate more heat away
Triple suspension for ultimate linearity – ensuring control at high power and excursions
Powerful 600 Watt Hypex Class-D Amplifier module, with switching power supply – provides instantaneous deliveryof high current when required
DSP processing with all control features and crossover performed digitally
APC (Automatic Position Correction) – in-house developed automatic room set-up feature using microphone for simple system optimization
Top mounted control panel
USB for connection to ‘SubConnect’ application, firmware updates and service
