Monitor Audio SILVER W 12

Silver W 12

The Silver W-12’s oversized chassis design uses an extremely powerful magnet system and massive voice coil to enable tremendous power from the compact sealed enclosure. A sturdy die-cast basket not only holds the massive system rigidly together, but also helps keep the chassis cool.

For the Silver W-12 subwoofer, Monitor Audio specifies a 500-watt Class D amplifier and a high-quality power supply module from respected amplifier specialist Hypex; this makes incredible dynamic reserves possible. A powerful DSP delivers the best performance and filtering characteristics while running the unique APC (Automatic Position Correction) system. The APC is a completely proprietary development to automatically adjust the sound to the room conditions. It uses a microphone and test tones to calculate adverse room conditions and correct the frequency response, optimizing it for the room and position. This is a simple and quick automated process that is self-explanatory during setup and ensures that the user can enjoy the subwoofer quality without any limitation in positioning.
