Monitor Audio Silver W12
Monitor Audio Silver W12
$1,650.00
The Monitor Audio Silver Series subwoofer delivers seismic bass
right down to 22 Hz using a powerful, long throw 12-inch driver. The
Silver W-12’s over-specified driver assembly employs a hugely powerful
magnet system and massive voice coil to deliver immense power from the
compact sealed cabinet. A heavy-duty diecast basket not only holds the
massive system rigidly together, but also assists thermal sinking to
keep the driver cool.
For the Silver W-12 subwoofer Monitor Audio specified a 500-watt
Class-D amplifier and power-supply module from highly-regarded amplifier
specialist Hypex; this provides incredible headroom and utilises
advanced switch-mode power conversion techniques. A powerful DSP has
been employed to deliver the best performance and filter
characteristics, while running the unique APC (Automatic Position
Correction) system. The APC is a completely in-house development,
designed to automatically correct for room modes. It uses a microphone
and test tones to calculate detrimental room modes and correct frequency
response, optimising it for the room and position. This is a simple and
quick automated process that is a complete revelation to the installer
and ensures the user can enjoy the subwoofer quality without positioning
restrictions.
At the heart of the Silver W-12 lies a sophisticated 32-bit
micro-controller, monitoring performance thousands of times per second,
ensuring the system can deliver the best possible bass. It will never
become over-driven or distorted, even at maximum power.
- Ultra long-throw 12-inch driver featuring ‘dished’ C-CAM cone
- Triple suspension for ultimate linearity ensuring control at high power and excursions
- Oversized black anodised 3-inch voice coil which provides high power-handling and low distortion
- Powerful 500 W RMS Class-D amplifier with switching power supply provides instantaneous delivery of high current when required
- DSP processing with all control features and crossover performed digitally
- Automatic Position Correction plus automatic room setup feature using microphone for simple system optimisation
- USB for firmware updates
