Know before you buy
The dual 13.8-inch drivers are mounted in a force-cancelling arrangement to minimize cabinet vibration. This ensures that the energy is directed into the sound output rather than shaking the enclosure, resulting in cleaner, more precise bass.
Yes, the 1723 Subwoofer 2V is designed to be versatile. You can switch between sealed and ported modes to tailor the bass response to your specific room acoustics and whether you prefer the tighter, more controlled sound of a sealed box or the higher output of a ported design.
The subwoofer features an integrated app-controlled interface. This allows you to easily customize EQ, phase, and crossover settings directly from your smartphone for precise room integration.
The unit is quite substantial, measuring 27.5 inches high, 19.7 inches wide, and 24 inches deep. Given its weight of 132.5 lbs and high-output design, ensure you have a sturdy, dedicated floor space that can accommodate its size and mass.
It is designed to excel at both. The 1200W RMS amplifier provides the seismic impact required for movie soundtracks, while the high-performance drivers and rigid HDF cabinet ensure the accuracy and speed needed for detailed music reproduction.
No, this is an active subwoofer. It features a built-in 1200W RMS Avalanche 1200 IQ amplifier, so you only need to connect it to your receiver or processor's subwoofer output.
