Product Description

For its success a multi-channel film sound mix relies on the profound structural underlay of a properly designed subwoofer. Not only can a high quality powered sub dredge frighteningly deep and dramatic frequencies from the mix, especially from HD audio soundtracks, it also adds a holistic solidity to the sound, helping you to suspend your disbelief. And speaking of disbelief, your jaw may hit the floor when you experience the amount of powerful low bass that’s produced by the surprisingly compact Silver RXW-12 sub. As Monitor Audio puts it, “The RXW-12 is equipped by our engineers to turn your system truly seismic.” Using the latest switch mode power conversion techniques, the RXW-12’s new 500 watt RMS (1000-watt peak power) ‘Class D’ amplifier provides enough power to control with brutal efficiency a newly designed, 12″ C-CAM driver, which is equipped with a double stack (two magnet) motor system and a massive 3″ voice coil. The RXW-12’s rigid, sealed 1″ MDF enclosure is front-loaded because it promotes the fastest, deepest bass down to 20 Hz and also for ease of installation. Wherever you place it, top mounted controls are provided for convenient parameter adjustment. For added convenience, a 12V trigger provides power syncing with your AV receiver. By refining its computer-aided Finite Element Analysis (FEA), Monitor Audio has developed new ways to shape its core driver material for even greater fidelity. C-CAM (Ceramic-Coated Aluminum/Magnesium) is very light and very strong, and so is ideal for the driver cones. Advanced FEA simulations have also helped the process of fine tuning the RST (Rigid Surface Technology) C-CAM mid-bass drivers, originally created for Monitor Audio’s celebrated Gold Reference speakers and now incorporated by the Silver RX range. Their super-stiff dimpled profiles are more resistant to break-up under high drive conditions and so produce a wider range of purer frequencies. Each driver’s rigid, non magnetic cast polymer ch
