High-Performance Drivers – Long-throw composite cone drivers with vented motor structures and oversized, high temperature voice coils. These powerful drivers have very stiff cones that act like a pistons throughout their operating range. Their massive motor assemblies and high temperature component parts deliver exceptional performance and reliability.

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

High-Current Amplifiers – The output stages of these amplifiers are capable of very high current 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 articulation and authority, with a useful in-room working frequency range of 25Hz to 150Hz.

Many subwoofers offer specifications that look great on paper, but in the real world deliver less than promised. Atlantic Technology subwoofers are over-designed to ensure

that they will deliver their rated performance in your room, when properly placed and adjusted.

Adjustable (40Hz to 140Hz)@18dB per Octave Low Pass Crossover – The steep upper end roll-off slope of 18dB per octave allows for much better bass integration with the satellite speakers while making the woofer less localizable.

Complete Hookup Flexibility – The subwoofers each have two low level inputs and two low level outputs. The outputs allow daisy chaining of multiple subwoofers, or as a return path back to the processor.

Phase Invert Switch – 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.

Front Panel Level Control (642 and 422 SB) –

Allows convenient adjustment of subwoofer level.

Automatic Standby Operation with LED Indicator Automatic standby features signal sensing turn-on with a 7-10 minute turn-off delay. There’s a multi-color LED status indicator that lets you know when the unit is on or in standby. Automatic Standby can be defeated by placing the rear-mounted switch in the ON position.
