Dynaudio Core Sub

Dynaudio Core Sub Quad 9-inch Powered Studio Subwoofer

Dynaudio’s Core Sub, which has four side-firing 9″ drivers, delivers the type of tight and concentrated low-frequency extension that a true studio sub should provide. These are Dynaudio’s MSP+ (Magnesium Silicate Polymer) Hybrid Drive versions, which use aluminum for maximum rigidity. The Core Sub’s dual-action dampening technology prevents ringing overtones. Overall, the Core Sub readily competes with numerous 18″ subs that  engineers have used. And with features like up to 24-bit/192kHz digital input, versatile mounting choices, and 1,000 watts of amplification for plenty of headroom, Dynaudio’s Core Sub is hard to beat.

Flexible positioning

Dynaudio provided indentations on all otherwise blank sides of the Core Sub cabinet to accommodate special Dynaudio pads that protect the cabinet’s finish and stabilize the speaker on the mounting surface. Core Sub is also compatible with regular VESA mounting brackets and Dynaudio’s unique K&M bracket, allowing you to put it on a wall or ceiling as part of a multichannel or immersive-format display system like Dolby ATMOS.

Sophisticated, user-friendly DSP

When establishing a monitoring system, placement is crucial. That’s why Dynaudio included the Core Sub with two DSP filter switches to control its position and room boundary locations. The DSP is pretty complicated, but fortunately, it is simple to use. If you install the monitors on the meter bridge of a large-format mixing console, just choose “Desk,” which will assist in correcting the mixing board’s initial reflection. If you put the monitors in a specially designed wall, changing the Position 1 filter to “Soffit” will compensate for the enhanced low-end response.

To compensate for the boundary effects caused by positioning a monitor close to walls or ceilings, change the Position 2 filter to “Wall” or “Corner.” These filters serve to correct for the reflections caused by the boundary walls, particularly at lower frequencies. If you’re utilizing the Core Sub with a subwoofer to boost the low-frequency response, an 80Hz Linkwitz-Riley highpass filter may be activated.

Unique Sound Balance Filter

You may also utilize DSP to change the overall appearance. The Sound Balance filter varies from the shelving-EQ tweeter and woofer adjustments found on most active monitors. Instead of merely turning up or down the tweeter level, which affects phase response, the Core Sub uses a full-spectrum bandpass filter that tilts based on the tone response you want. The “Dark” preset tilts the entire frequency response so that 20 kHz is down by 1.5dB and 20 Hz is up +1.5dB. In “Bright” mode, the tilt is reversed. This soft filter retains the drivers’ appropriate phase response while producing the desired overall tone.
