Exclusive – Atlantic's Clear Filter Technology
Clear Filter Technology™ is an exclusive Atlantic design feature that ensures the cleanest, most articulate bass possible from a subwoofer.
The small cabinet of a powered
Therefore, we have developed Clear Filter Technology ™. Unlike con- ventional “limiters” and “feedback loops,” CFT incorporates special circuitry into the subwoofer amplifier that actually eliminates the negative effects that the enclosure itself has on the sound. That’s why other subwoofers, regardless of their power ratings or their limiters, can’t match the sound of an Atlantic subwoofer for detail and accu- racy.This benefit is found in all Atlantic subwoofers,regardless of size, price or configuration.

This powerful driver has a very stiff cone that acts like a piston throughout its operating range. Its massive magnetic motor assem- bly and high temperature component parts deliver exceptional per- formance and reliability.
Sealed enclosure design for low distortion and deep bass output
Sealed enclosure woofer designs are inherently low in distortion,and deliver deep smooth bass response with a gradual and predictable
The output stage of these amplifiers are capable of very high cur- rent delivery for exceptional driver control and cool operation. They have been precision matched and equalized to our rugged drivers. Together they deliver powerful, controlled bass with great articula- tion and authority.
Two low level inputs, two low level outputs
The outputs allow daisy chaining of multiple subwoofers, or as a return path back to the processor.
A Phase Invert switch (Normal/Invert)
This switch allows precise acoustic matching with satellite speaker systems whose output may be phase reversed.This switch also allows you to compensate for unusual room acoustics that occur when the woofer is physically separated from the main speakers.Be sure to try the Phase switch in both positions when you set up your subwoofer. Even if you’ve simply changed the

Note: If you are using a surround Processor/Receiver that includes its own filtered subwoofer output (or a THX Certified Processor/ Receiver), we recommend that you set the crossover control to the Bypass position.
