The bass driver assembly employs a hugely powerful magnetic system and massive voice coil to deliver the immense power and scale required for serious home theatre or music reproduction.

A 600 Watt Class-D amplifier (Hypex manufactured) is perfectly matched to a high current switching power supply to ensure continuous delivery of high sound pressure levels, whilst accurately reproducing peak transients. A powerful DSP has been employed to deliver the best performance and filter characteristics whilst running the unique APC system. The APC (Automatic Position Correction) system has been designed by Monitor Audio to automatically correct for different types of rooms. It uses a microphone and test tones to calculate detrimental room modes and automatically correct frequency response, optimising it for the room and position. This ensures the user can enjoy the subwoofer without the restrictions of positioning. A sophisticated 32bit micro-controller, monitoring the sound levels thousands of times per second, ensures the woofer delivers the best possible performance.

Settings adjustment is provided by the innovative controller mounted on the cabinet top panel, or by using Monitor Audio’s proprietary ‘SubConnect’ software. The settings provide four fully configurable user pre-sets per input, including modes for; Flat/Music/Movie and Impact equaliser settings. Fine-tuning can be made by adjusting the frequency, slope, trim and equaliser filters for each pre-set. The Night Mode actively reduces the dynamic range of louder sections according to the level the listener desires.
