Essential Information About the Active D-XSUB Subwoofer
- Deep and Fast Bass: bandpass design and frequency response from 38 to 140 Hz for a clear foundation, ideal for sound reinforcement.
- High Output Level: up to 132 dB SPL and a rated amplification of 2500 W to handle the low end even in demanding setups.
- Modern Control: 96 kHz DSP, LCD screen, Bluetooth, and control via the "D Remote" app for quick adjustments on site.
- Sound Dispersion Control: Cardioid mode to limit rear energy and improve comfort on stage and in the venue.
A Subwoofer Designed for Today's Compact Systems
The D-XSUB is clearly an active subwoofer aimed at real-world use: available power, a 12-inch speaker format that's easier to transport than a large sub, and a digital processing section that facilitates integration into very different setups. Its bandpass design emphasizes efficiency in the useful range, where the kick drum, bass, and electronic impacts need pressure and control.
This approach makes it a coherent choice to complement full-range speakers, reinforce a mobile system, or strengthen a front-of-house rig with a "performance + practicality" mindset, without multiplying external devices. The package is completed by modern ergonomics, featuring an LCD screen and remote control layer via Bluetooth.
Who It's For and What It's For: DJs, Live, Events, and Installations
The D-XSUB targets users who want clear bass and headroom without complicating cabling. For DJ gigs, it provides the essential low end for styles rich in sub-bass and kick, while maintaining definition at high volumes. In concerts, it supports drums and bass and helps stabilize the tonal balance of a front-of-house mix.
Its cardioid mode is particularly valuable when controlling rear noise (stage, DJ booth, immediate neighbors, stage monitors). By limiting energy that "bleeds" behind the subwoofer, it improves playing comfort, reduces bass spill into microphones, and often enhances perceived precision in the audience area.
Finally, for rental and events, the quick adjustment aspect (DSP, screen, app) simplifies configuration changes: moving from one venue to another is more relaxed, and adjustments can be made without staying glued to the rear panel.
