Review in "Klang und Ton" issue 5/2003

More and more customers are asking for a subwoofer where the cone's oscillation is controlled perfectly, reproducing a low bass and mountable in a small cabinet.

These requirements led to the following concept:
2 identical bass drivers with a very strong magnet and a very stiff and rigid cone, ensuring a controlled oscillation. A unique low bass control is added. The subwoofer is then combined with an amplification module with a very high power output. Sub 22

The Alcone AC 12 SW8 bass drivers are deployed in the Sub 22. The drivers are manufactured to the highest standards, ensuring first class control over the cone through their strong magnets.

The AC 12 SW8 bass driver consists of:

  • a seamless aluminium-sandwich cone,
  • an exemplary designed die cast basket,
  • ventilated magnet system
  • extremely strong drive Qts = 0,24,
  • 8 Ohm impedance, for optimum use
      of the amplifier by two AC12 connected in parallel.
  • gold plated push-pull terminals

    Particularly the strong drive combined with the low bass tuning, turn out a sound quality which is generally only possible with larger sized cabinets. The principle of low tuned subwoofers with extremely strong drive are at the moment being adapted by manufacturers of finished loudspeakers as well.


    The Hypex DS 4.0 amplifier module is located at the rear of the cabinet. The module features state-of-the-art Class AB amplification, supported by an integrated Classs-D power supply for highest performance.
