Elac Sub 101 ESP Subwoofer

Sub 101 ESP is an active subwoofer from the 100th series of German ELAC systems. Mounted in the bottom driver radiates into floor, a necessary gap is formed due to plastic legs. The bass-reflex port is placed on the front panel. The signal goes on linear inputs after the correction by high pass filter: basses below 50 Hz are cut off. High-amplitude signal for the satellites is processed by HPF with lower cutoff frequency of 90 Hz. There is a phase inverter. The precision of LPF and amplification controls inspire confidence- there are detailed scales of frequencies and levels around each one. Amplification handle has OFF position (the far left), in which the built-in amplifier is disabled, only automatic of input circuits work - the system of auto insertion of subwoofer on the fact of appearance of input signal and disabling after 15-min of its absence is provided.

In combination with any acoustic Sub 101 immediately give the feeling of participation to uncompromisingly deep bass. The sub is able to even raise low-frequency layers, what is possible only in purely theatrical context and does not have any analogues. Splendid low-frequency atmosphere is set at the maximum bandwidth and approximately middle position of amplification handle. The sub can shake on the explosions and come on with ninth wave of ocean storm "from the heart". The possibilities of Sub 101 open out in its entirety exactly in movie. But you should not still go to extreme volume levels - bass obtains unwarranted heaviness, the noise of bass-reflex tube becomes noticeable. Approximately middle positions of controls correspond to almost ideal Alliance with shelf systems - modern music sounds comfort. Very deep bass of Sub 101 will adorn a sound image of home cinema.

The system is advisable to use in small rooms, experimentally determining its optimal position. The satellites are better to connect through the sub, also experimentally determining the best variant of switching. It makes sense to build cinema on the branded components from the 100th series.
