SVS PC12-NSD 12" 800W Ported Cylinder Subwoofer

12" Ported Cylinder 800W DSP Controlled Home Theatre Subwoofer Sub SVS PC12-NSD
Our Most Affordable Powered Cylinder
The original SVS subwoofer was a cylinder design, and this unique and
elegant form factor has since become an iconic symbol of SVS performance
heritage. The PC12-NSD is our most affordable powered cylinder, but
after experiencing its performance, no one would dare call it 'entry
level'. Every component reflects SVS performance pedigree, and the
PC12-NSD obliterates over-priced and under-performing brick & mortar
subwoofers, even at twice the price. Prepare to be pleasantly shocked at
what the PC12-NSD will bring to your music and home theater system –
bass so accurate, detailed, dynamic, and deep that after one listen your
old 'subwoofer' will be kicked to the curb.
NSD-12 Driver – Best In Class Performance
SVS never stops improving the breed, and our newest NSD-12 has even
better all-round performance than its predecessor. A more linear
force/displacement profile, improved transient response with less
'overhang', and even wider bandwidth elevate the NSD-12 transducer to
best-in-class performance. What does all this mean to the enthusiast?
Tight, clean and accurate bass with lots of slam and impact – you'll be
the envy of all your friends on movie night!
- Finite Element Analysis (FEA)-optimized motor with dual shorting rings and pole extenders to reduce gap induction and distortion.
- 2" diameter, high-power voice coil with high-temp former.
- Nomex linear-roll super long-throw spider.
- Exclusive SVS aluminum cone and composite dust cap for excellent transient response and resonance control.
- Vented pole-piece for greater cooling, low noise, and reduced compression artifacts.
Sledge Amplification – Intelligent and Sophisticated Power
Our Sledge STA-400D amplifier sports technology and features simply not found anywhere else at this price point. Starting with a conservatively rated 400 watts of DSP-controlled power – a perfect match for the rugged NSD-12 driver. You won't find old-fashioned analog pots on this amp – every control knob is actually a digital actuator for precise and noise-free adjustment. And comprehensive and flexible connectivity options allow for easy set-up and integration into any home theater or stereo system.
- 400 watts RMS continuous power (800 watts peak dynamic power).
- Efficient, cool-running Class D power with 'green' standby mode.
- Stereo line-level RCA input/output connections.
- Separate high-passed and unfiltered line level outputs.
- Continuously variable low pass filter.
- DSP control for refined behavior under all operating conditions.
Compact Footprint, Efficient Performance
With only a 16.5" diameter footprint, the PC12-NSD will fit into almost any location, and no other subwoofer design offers more bass performance per square inch of floor space. Using vertical height to achieve a generous enclosure volume and a deep-tuned port, the result is excellent deep bass performance and outstanding mid-bass slam – all in a very manageable size. Finished in high-grade black velour fabric, this unique and elegant subwoofer will complement the most upscale décors and high-end theaters.
- Small footprint fits into tight locations and is perfect for the enthusiast with limited floor space.
- Slender vertical form factor results in generous enclosure volume for efficient reproduction of the deepest bass notes.
- Down-firing driver provides a low center-of-gravity and excellent stability.
- Wide-flared 4" port for maximum air-flow with no artifacts.
- 20 Hz tuning for optimal extension and output on all source material.
