MODEL 172 PBM

High Performance Powered Subwoofer

Congratulations on your purchase of an Atlantic Technology 172 PBM powered subwoofer. With proper care, your new subwoofer will provide many years of trouble-free performance.

The 172 PBM is capable of delivering very high output levels and wide dynamic range. When properly placed it will provide smooth in-room bass response down to approximately 20 Hz, with a peak SPL of 108dB (1800 cubic foot space).

The built-in proprietary high-current Class G amplifier is conserva- tively rated at 150 watts RMS. This amplifier, coupled with a massive 12" long-throw woofer in a sealed enclosure, generates musically accurate deep bass with a minimum of distortion.

Your Atlantic Technology powered subwoofer will smoothly integrate with virtually all other brands of loudspeakers on the market as all its

internal electronics have been designed to maintain optimum signal integrity. From the premium quality gold plated connectors to the clearly marked controls, this is one of the most versatile high performance subwoofers you can buy. An added benefit is its relatively compact size and straight forward design.

Your Atlantic Technology powered subwoofer has been engineered using the latest technology and finest components available. It features:

●A long-throw 12" driver with vented motor structure and 2", high-temperature, 4-layer voice coil

This powerful driver has a very stiff cone that acts as an almost perfect piston throughout its operating range. Its massive magnetic motor assembly and high temperature component parts deliver high performance and exceptional reliability. In fact, the 9.5 pound motor assembly is identical to the one in our top of the line 15 inch subwoofers!

●A sealed enclosure for low distortion and deep bass output

Sealed enclosure designs are inherently low in distortion and naturally deliver deep, smooth bass response with a gradual and predictable roll-off below resonance. As with all Atlantic Technology subwoofers, we have paid inordinate attention to giving you accurate musical bass reproduction along with terrific special effects.

●A linear power high current Class G amplifier conservatively rated at 150 watts RMS

Atlantic Technology’s advanced Class G amplifiers utilize dual low voltage/high voltage power supplies for exceptional power delivery from a compact and efficient package. One power supply operates during all “normal” demand periods. But, when a high demand peak signal appears at the subwoofer input, the second, high voltage supply switches in to dramatically boost the amp- lifier’s low distortion output capability. The amplifier delivers very high power levels yet consumes less steady-state power and produces much less heat than standard comparable amplifier designs. The 172 PBM’s custom designed amplifier has been precision matched and equalized to its 12” driver. It exerts accurate and powerful control over the driver for the best performance possible.
