A Modern Bass Cabinet Designed for Sound Reinforcement Demands
This active subwoofer fits within the current approach to sound reinforcement systems: high acoustic pressure, onboard digital management, and Class D amplification. The 15 mm birch plywood enclosure aims for a good balance between rigidity and durability, while the Italian manufacturing emphasizes assembly geared towards heavy-duty use, both in live performance and installation.
Who Is It For and What Are Its Uses?
This cabinet is intended for service providers, DJs, bands, and venues (clubs, halls, stages, event spaces) seeking a solid foundation in the low end. With coverage centered on 33-100 Hz, it is ideal for reinforcing kick drums, bass, synths, and electronic impacts, while remaining easy to integrate under a full-range system thanks to delay and phase settings.
Settings, DSP, and Design: Efficiency in the Field
DSP 8 Presets: Adapt the Sub to the Setup in Seconds
The DSP offers 8 presets to quickly adjust the cabinet's behavior depending on the context (program type, placement, desired sound). This approach saves setup time and ensures consistent results from gig to gig.
Alignment and Coherence: Delay and Phase Inversion
The Delay adjustment helps align the subwoofer with the main speakers to improve the attack and clarity of the bass at the listening position. The phase inverter is a simple but essential tool to avoid cancellations in the low frequencies, especially when the sub is placed differently from the tops (on the floor, in an arc, coupled, etc.).
Class D Amplification and Switch-Mode Power Supply
The Class D amplification combined with a switch-mode power supply is designed to provide dynamic headroom while remaining suited to operational constraints (transport, back-to-back sets, long sessions). The goal is a firm bass capable of sustaining power over time.
18-Inch B&C Neodymium Driver: Impact and Endurance
The B&C 18-inch speaker with a neodymium motor aims for a fast response and good efficiency, particularly appreciated when seeking bass that "hits" without lingering. This choice suits both electronic music and live bands requiring a solid and precise foundation.
Simple Connectivity and Quick Linking
XLR connectivity (input + link output) facilitates integration into a standard sound reinforcement chain, whether in mono or stereo configuration, and allows clean daisy-chaining of the signal to other system components.
