The base DVC is a small subwoofer with double voice coil woofer Monacor SPH-200CTC.

The base DVC has been developed by Bernd Timmermanns.

We offer "the base DVC" in different combinations: active mono or in stereo with amplifier module or with digital signal processor and amplifier module or passive.

The plate amplifier AMP-24 provides:

2x 90 Watt RMS into 4 Ohm
or 180 Watt RMS into 8 Ohm (bridged)
The possibility to adapt the amplifier to the loudspeaker or subwoofer.
In addition the possibility to tune the DSP according to room conditions.
We would like to help you tuning the signal processors for your room.
Or we delivered them tuned for your room.

Additional information on digital signal processors (DSP): what is a DSP?, Tuning according to room conditions and Examples Of DSP use (e.g. in subwoofers).
