movie soundtracks and music in the home. These attractive powered subwoofers will complement any stereo or home
theater surround sound system with their impressive bass output and compact size.
Both subwoofers utilize our rugged DCD™ (Deep Channel Design) bass unit designed in Boston’s state-of-the-art
engineering facility in Peabody, Massachusetts. Every one is tested as it comes off the line to be within ±1dB of the lab
reference unit, an incredibly tight tolerance. The amplifiers have built-in variable crossovers that allow them to easily
achieve a seamless blend with the main speakers, while a 24dB/octave low-pass filter prevents the subwoofers from
being easily localized by ear, increasing placement flexibility. A crossover bypass function is provided for use with home
theater electronics that perform their own bass management.
