Our subwoofers do indeed come with DSP but they are meant for the manufacturer to optimize the subwoofer to the amp and to the enclosure. There are two types of Digital Signal Processing (DSP) in this discussion, amp DSP and room DSP. No need to worry about cabinet vibration. These are solid, high-quality enclosures that were meant to look good and perform even better. So while there may be some vibration, you could easily set a drink on the end table or side table sub and not have to worry (but please use a coaster). Further, the panel's resonating frequencies of our enclosures are way above the audible range of subwoofers (greater than 200 Hz). In this case, we were sure to use offset bracing to ensure no pair of panels would have similar resonating frequencies. Often it isn't a single panel that causes a problem but multiple panels with the same resonating frequency combining, which could result in audible vibrations. Every panel resonates with vibrations and the trick is to make sure a panel's resonating frequency is outside of the usable frequency range of a speaker or subwoofer. The end result is a very strong cabinet that you could dance on, and yes, it has been verified to handle dancing by a grown man and his wife.Ī second part of this question relates to panel resonance. Finally, there are 4 braces connecting the front to the middle to the back. There is another layer near the middle of the sub that parallels the front superstructure and braces the entire middle of the cabinet. The front super structure of 7 layers is then wrapped in 3/4" plywood on the sides, top and bottom to create an incredibly strong structure. Then there are 2 more layers on which the sub mounts. Then we have 4 layers of the same plywood which act as spacers to handle the 5" of excursion the 24" driver is capable of producing. Starting from the outside, we have the outer front layer of 3/4" high-quality Baltic Birch plywood, which is veneered. The recessed sub design was selected so that we wouldn't see a huge rectangle/square of grill cloth as well as for strength. The short answer is not much at all and you won't have to worry about the sub vibrating across the floor. How much does the subwoofer cabinet vibrate? How is it constructed? So while this subwoofer was designed with the focus of deep bass found in movies, it is a powerful, quick, and articulate subwoofer just as capable with music but at output levels that far exceed normal subwoofers. With so much magnet force, when the sub is supposed to move, it moves, and when it is supposed to stop, it stops. With an 80 lb magnetic motor these subs are able to start and stop the mass of the subwoofer cone incredibly quickly. The 18" and 24" subwoofer drivers were developed with a focus on reproducing deep bass that is present in today's movies, yet most people do not realize how much sound information they are missing even surprising movies like Toy Story 2 and How to Train Your Dragon have very deep bass. The most surprising thing when I first heard the driver was to learn it was playing up to 100 Hz yet was so clean and tight. As you would expect of such a large woofer, it produces prodigious amounts of visceral bass at levels beyond the capability of existing subwoofers. Quite simply, the 24" driver was the reason I decided to start this company.
