Alon Wolf and his team of engineers announced a new addition to the award-winning S-Series line – the S-SUB. Following the success of the Q-Sub 15 /18 the new S-SUB expands the sound dimension capabilities of any Magico S-Series loudspeaker with thundering low bass frequency reinforcement.
Standing vertically, the acoustic suspension enclosure of the S-SUB features curved aluminum side panels that are machined in-house from half-inch thick aluminum extrusions which are sixteen-inches in diameter. According to Magico, internal bracing is carefully positioned throughout the enclosure to minimize resonances and eliminate any chance of enclosure warping from the enormous sound pressure build up.
Dual 12-inch Magico bass drivers are mounted to the front baffle in a vertical array. Each driver has an extremely powerful magnet assembly and ultra-stiff aluminum cones that are capable of producing deep powerful bass frequencies with speed and accuracy. The excursion rate of the voice coil is measured at 15-mm linear movement and produces clean and undistorted sound pressure levels up to 120dB with less than 1% total harmonic distortion at 20Hz, the company says.
The S-SUB is powered internally by a digital amplifier that has a 3,000VA power supply (240V), fully regulated output stage and delivers 2,500 Watts of purpose built power. Seamless integration with the main loudspeakers in a stereo or, home theater system is easily accomplished with the on-board digitally-controlled active crossover. The small footprint and front firing design of the S-SUB makes placement easy along the main wall of the listening room and a welcome addition to any system.
