PV1D
The world’s most musical subwoofer goes digital
Retaining the balanced drive and pressure vessel concept of its predecessor, PV1D sports a fresh new design and a version of the
DSP platform developed for the acclaimed DB1. Digital processing provides greater control and versatility, allowing PV1D to integrate
seamlessly with a wide variety of satellite speakers, either to create truly impressive home theatre systems, or to simply extend their bass
response for two-channel applications. There is power on tap to fully reproduce the most demanding special effects in movies, but PV1D
retains all the musical nuances for which its predecessor was renowned.
