The backbone and fibre of any good surround sound system is the subwoofer and the Monitor Audio Platinum PLW15 active subwoofer never disappoints. A good sized 15" driver with a staggering 1000 watts of power, this bass speaker is guaranteed to deliver sheer impact no matter how big the room.
What sets this Platinum PLW15 apart from the rest is the impressive frequency range, catering for all demands of movie scores. With a continuous force of 1000 watts the driver displays a stunning range of speed and integrity. A ten band parametric EQ and four EQ pre-set positions can be remote controlled for different music and film settings too.
Whilst the PLW15's performance appears unmatched, the finish and build quality are equally as good. The lush curvacious cabinet is radically braced and damped to enhance the structure. A choice of high lacquered gloss veneer finishes complete the look blending power and finesse with superb aesthetics. With Platinum by Monitor Audio, a new benchmark has been reached.
C-CAM®
Ceramic-Coated Aluminium/Magnesium is a material originally developed by the aerospace industry for jet engine components. Its properties are ideal for loudspeaker cones being extremely rigid, yet light enough to yield high overall efficiency. In manufacture, aluminium/magnesium alloy undergoes a three-stage stress-relieving process to remove surface deformation and molecular weakness. Once formed, the alloy cone is subjected to a high temperature anodic coating process in which a layer of pure ceramic alumina is depleted onto its surfaces to a depth of 50 microns, producing a completely rigid sandwich of alloy and heat-dissipating ceramic material.
Conventional cones are liable to flex or twist in operation, producing a significant level of audible distortion. C-CAM cones have a much higher resistance to bending stress and therefore exhibit much greater fidelity over their entire operating range. C-CAM tweeters and woofers share an audible consistency producing a smooth transition of frequencies and a sense of realism and cohesion in the soundstage
