In order to extend the performance of its lifestyle speaker systems, Monitor Audio has created a wholly new sub-bass engine for the AW-12, designed to contribute a seismic blend of deep bass frequencies and high output with low distortion. Every component has been developed specifically for the AW-12, including the massively engineered front-firing 12" C-CAM driver and 500 watt Class D amplifier. The amplifier and its complementary high efficiency switch mode power supply are able to deliver full power with a continuous rating, equal to most other subwoofers rated at 1000 watts. This means that even in the largest rooms, the AW-12 is able to perform cleanly, dynamically and with profound effect over extended periods of listening.
The GXW-15 is an example of state-of-the-art subwoofer design. In a gloriously glossy, rigid compact enclosure, we’ve installed an ultra-long throw 15” C-CAM bass driver, triple suspended for a full 38mm (1.5”) of linear excursion. Featuring a massive magnet structure and under the DSP control of a 650W D2AUDIO® DSP controlled amplifier, this extraordinary deep bass generator brings a new dimension to bass and reference results for SPL, dynamic control and headroom.
Underpinning the drama and scintillating musical vitality of a Platinum multichannel speaker system is the PLW-15, a range matching sub-bass engine endowed with all the quality, virtuosity and excellence that defines the marque. Capable of releasing the deepest frequencies recorded on disc, the PLW-15 will drive performances of music and film with an utterly breathtaking authority. Its 15" (381mm) long-throw C-CAM driver is triple suspended in a rigid die-cast alloy chassis. A massive double-stack magnet motor system with a 4" (101.6mm) voice coil provides the ultimate linearity and control required to reproduce the clean seismic 16Hz tones that you feel more than you hear.
This super-compact active subwoofer has the speed, subtlety and pitch accuracy to enhance the highest quality music reproduction but it can also deliver the power and slam demanded by movie soundtracks by virtue of its ported, downward-firing 205mm (8’’) driver, controlled by a powerful built-in 100 watt Class A-B amplifier. It has a variable crossover frequency control from 40Hz-180Hz, 0-180 phase switch, stereo, LFE RCA inputs, silicone rubber anti-resonance feet and two EQ settings for music or video programme optimisation.
The R370HD active subwoofer provides a new dimension to a system’s sound. Its 255mm (10”) C-CAM® downward firing driver, powered by a potent 250W (RMS) Class D amplifier, will extend the reach of the RadiusHD satellites to add the deepest drama to movies and music. The R370HD’s lowest frequencies are controlled so expertly that even subtle effects are better defined, enhancing the listening experience with bass you can feel as well as hear. The R370HD is equipped with a top-mounted control panel for easy access to volume and 2 EQ settings, 12V trigger input for power on/standby control from an AV amplifier, variable crossover control from 40Hz-120Hz, stereo, LFE RCA inputs and link outputs.
