Review (without DSP) in "Hobby HiFi" issue 1/2003

More and more customers are asking for a subwoofer where the cone's oscillation is controlled perfectly, reproducing a low bass and mountable in a small cabinet.

These requirements led to the following concept:
Bass driver with a very strong magnet and a very stiff and rigid cone, ensuring a controlled oscillation. A unique low bass control is added. The subwoofer is then combined with an amplification module with a very high power output. Omnes Audio

The Alcone AC 12 SW4 bass drivers is deployed in the Sub 12. The driver is manufactured to the highest standards, ensuring first class control over the cone through their strong magnets.

The AC 12 SW4 bass driver consists of:

  • a seamless aluminium-sandwich cone,
  • an exemplary designed die cast basket,
  • ventilated magent system,
  • extremely strong drive Qts = 0,26,
  • 4 Ohm impedance, for optimum use of the amplifier
  • gold plated push-pull terminals

    Particularly the strong drive combined with the low bass tuning, turn out a sound quality which is generally only possible with larger sized cabinets. The principle of low tuned subwoofers with extremely strong drive are at the moment being adapted by manufacturers of finished loudspeakers.

    The Omnes Audio DPA 200 amplifier module is located at the rear of the cabinet. The module features state-of-the-art amplifier with digital signal processor. ensuring enormous power output with top quality sound, fitted in a small cabinet.

    Since a 4 Ohm bass driver is used, the entire power of the Omnes Audio DPA 200 becomes usable the DPA 200 delivers - like most amplifier modules - roughly 40% more power on 4 Ohm compared to 8 Ohm).

    The kit contains:
    - 1 x Alcone AC 12 SW4 bass driver
    - 1 x Omnes Audio DPA 200 amplifier module
    - 2 x bass reflex tubes HP100, pointing downwards
    - 8 Allen wood screws 5x30mm
    - 12 wood screws Pan 4x20
    - 1 x mat needle felt NF 10
    - 6 cable fasteners
    - sealing tape
