Velodyne Acoustics EQ-MAX

EQ-MAX subwoofers are easily integrated into any home entertainment systems thanks to the digitally controlled five-band equalizer. Users simply place the subwoofer in the preferred location, place the included microphone in the desired listening area and push the remote control “EQ” button. The EQ-MAX remote control also enables users to control all of the subwoofer’s functions with visible feedback on the front panel of the subwoofer. Velodyne’s newly designed, efficient, digital “Class D” amplifiers nearly eliminate the issue of wasting energy as heat, keeping bass peaks clean and dynamic. EQ-MAX’s powerful Class D amplifiers are complimented by four custom designed “Extended Excursion” drivers engineered with vented pole-pieces that increase power handling and assure long-term reliability and performance. Velodyne’s unique Distortion Limiting System is another key to EQ-MAX’s superior sound performance. With digital precision, the subwoofer achieves maximum output from both the amplifier and woofer motor construction without the risk of overdriving; resulting in deeper bass extension, bigger impact and less distortion.

Features

Velodyne's EQ-MAX is the first line of subwoofers available at their price point to feature remote control operation and built-in processing that enables users to maximize bass performance with the simple touch of a button. Users simply place the subwoofer in the preferred location, place the microphone in the desired listening area and push the "EQ" button on the included remote control. The built-in equalizer takes over utilizing Velodyne's Digital Signal Processing (DSP), automatically calibrating the subwoofer to deliver optimum bass performance. The EQ-MAX remote control lets users control all of the subwoofer's functions with feedback on the front panel. The remote allows users to switch between a number of presets; set the sub to "Night Mode" to limit the output; illuminate the front display of the subwoofer; access phase adjustment to get the best possible match between the subwoofer and speaker system; and mute the subwoofer. Newly designed, efficient, digital "Class D" amplifiers feature a switching-mode power supply and nearly eliminates the issue of wasting energy as heat, keeping bass clean and dynamic. This enables the EQ-MAX to reproduce difficult, ultra-low frequencies such as explosions, pulsing drumbeats, or classical organ pieces. EQ-MAX's powerful amplifiers are complimented by four custom designed "Extended Excursion" drivers developed by Velodyne. These drivers are engineered with vented pole-pieces that increase power handling and assure long-term reliability and performance. The subwoofer's large, dual layer copper wound voice coils are specifically matched with massive magnets (4.66lbs - 10.14lbs) to provide dynamic bass listeners can actually "feel".
