The Voice-Acoustic Paveosub-112: the world's lowest 12-inch subwoofer

The Paveosub-112 is a very compact bass-reflex subwoofer for universal applications in mobile use and in fixed installations.

At just 30 cm high, the Paveosub-112 is the world's lowest 12-inch subwoofer and can be used where high sound pressure and depth are required in the smallest of spaces. Its flat dimensions allow the subwoofer to be safely used for satellite systems when operated with a spacer pole it forms an elegant silhouette with column speakers and line array sticks.

Design

Four rubber feet on both the narrow and wide sides of the enclosure with stacking troughs on either side guarantee a secure position without slipping. To allow the Paveosub-112 to be used in landscape or upright position, two M20 flanges for spacer bars are also integrated and ensure flexible use and an attractive appearance, depending on the combined top section.

Monitoring

The Paveo's stacking bins are in the same dimensions as the Modular-10, lying down as a monitor. In addition, both speakers are 52 cm in size, making them visually unified as well. This combination results in a professional drum fill that will make any drummer happy. The compact design takes up little space on stage.

An extremely powerful drive (B/L factor 26), the high-quality 12-inch neodymium chassis guarantees fast and accurate signal reproduction with excellent fade-in and fade-out behaviour. The loudspeaker has a large and heavy 4-inch voice coil, an advanced ventilation system and lower power compression than conventional bass drivers: the output stage power is used more effectively and efficiency is maintained even with permanent full modulation.

The two bass reflex channels are attached to the sides. This arrangement prevents the double-centred diaphragm from wobbling at high deflections, as air escapes from all sides, generating an even back pressure. This type of tunnel construction reinforces the house walls again. Additional internal struts ensure maximum stability and prevent unwanted resonances.

Two large handles accessible from all sides and a removable front rollerboard make handling a pleasure.

Amplifiers

The Paveosub-112 is operated on one channel (2,400 W / 4 Ω) of an HDSP amplifier. The woofer is designed in 8 .

The HDSP amplifiers include preset settings for combination with Voice-Acoustic tops. Two Paveosub-112 can be looped through and operated in parallel on one amplifier channel. Up to four Paveosub-112 can be connected to one HDSP-6.
