Subwoofer Systems

 

Congratulations on choosing an Atlantic Technology Powered Subwoofer. This manual covers the Atlantic Technology Models 222, 262 and 352 THX® Powered Subwoofer Systems. Our subwoofers feature a proprietary amplifier and special high excursion woofers designed to deliver very high output levels on a continuous basis. The sealed acoustic suspension cabinet configuration provides extended, deep bass in a compact, room-friendly design. This new generation of subwoofers utilizes a new advanced circuit design to control distortion and woofer over-excursion. The overload circuitry incorporates optical devices that isolate this circuit from the rest of the amplifier for optimum sound quality.

Atlantic Technology Powered Subwoofers integrate easily with virtually all other brands of loudspeakers on the market. All inputs and outputs, both line level and high (speaker) level, are designed for optimum signal integrity. The premium quality gold plated connectors and all controls are clearly labeled and versatile in operation. The amplifiers have more than ample power and headroom to supply a high fidelity foundation to any audio or home theater system.

Lucasfilm Home THX

George Lucas and Lucasfilm, (creators of the Star Wars saga), originated and perfected Home THX, a strict set of standards and guidelines for home theaters, so that they may emulate the original dubbing stage. When properly followed, these guidelines address

and correct the problems of overly bright or harsh soundtracks, unintelligible dialog, limited bass response, and poor localization of sounds.

It is important to realize that THX is not a recording process or film sound format. All motion pictures will be reproduced as they were heard in the film studio dubbing

stage through the Home THX System, no matter what delivery system is used. The 352 PBM THX will easily handle the full dynamic range and low frequency bandwidth of any existing or newly emerging surround sound technology (such as Dolby AC-3). The 352 PBM THX addresses the interface requirements and dynamic capabilities of the real world. It’s combination of advanced amplification and high-excursion woofer delivers prodigious amounts of low frequency energy at high sound pressure levels with very little distortion.
