Description
PS1K
Design and construction of the PS1K subwoofer embodies a no-compromise approach.
At its core are two 13-inch woofers (drivers), equipped with powerful magnets. These drivers feature proprietary Low Distortion High Performance (LD/HP®) Magnetic Circuit Design, which significantly reduces distortion while boosting power handling and efficiency.
Finite Element Analysis (FEA) was essential in optimizing these drivers, ensuring a sound experience that is nothing short of extraordinary. The drivers are designed for extreme linearity to minimize distortion, with an extra-long voice coil and a suspension system engineered for extended linear travel.
PS1K also features innovative multi-layer carbon fibre cones in the woofers. These cones, with an integrated voice coil joint, provide unmatched rigidity and power handling.
Unlike traditional single-layer carbon fibre cones, which could flex and degrade sound quality, the multi-layer design of the PS1K offers exceptional strength and resists flexing, even during extended excursions.
Feel The Sound
Feel the intensity of your favourite music and movies from the PS1K’s dual 13-inch woofers, with each powered by a 500 watt Class D amplifier that combine to deliver up to 1,000 watts of total output.
These amplifiers are carefully calibrated to minimize distortion, delivering tight, clear bass even in large listening spaces.
Both woofers are mounted above the amplifier module, which features a power output meter to display the PS1K’s total output. The enclosure has a thick baffle which ensures rigidity and minimizes vibration, while the sealed box design eliminates port noise.
Versatility + Connectivity
The PS1K excels in both performance and versatility. Whether you are using a two-channel stereo system or a multi-channel home theatre setup, the PS1K offers balanced stereo inputs and outputs, along with balanced and unbalanced subwoofer inputs and outputs.
This range of connection options supports nearly any installation, and daisy-chaining allows for multiple PS1Ks in a system.
