JL Audio d108-ASH
8" Active Subwoofer with 500-watt Amplifier
The Dominion series is born from years of advanced technologies developed by JL Audio and its long-standing expertise as a subwoofer manufacturer, resulting in an astonishing amount of performance squeezed from a compact enclosure, without forgetting precision and musically expressive tonality.
Precision and Power
Specifically designed to produce powerful bass frequencies with authority and force, the Dominion's woofer utilizes JL Audio's exclusive DMA (Dynamic Motor Analysis) technology to deliver truly powerful bass response while keeping distortion incredibly low. The driver's excursion is an impressive 68 mm for its size!
The benefit of DMA technology is that dynamic tracking and precision are in a class of their own, allowing even the slightest nuances of the bass guitar to be conveyed with clarity and accuracy, without being masked by other music.
Advanced Amplifier Technology
Dominion series amplifiers leverage advanced Class D design to extract maximum benefit from the driver. The implementation also includes a very precisely regulated current stage, allowing the amplifier to deliver an astonishing amount of clean power to the driver.
The amplifier also includes a host of signal processing, making it exceptionally easy to integrate into any system, whether the main speakers are traditional boxed models or extremely fast-moving panels, Dominion always keeps up. The low-pass filter is precisely controlled thanks to the 24dB/octave Linkwitz-Riley crossover, ensuring the subwoofer reproduces only its designated frequencies and avoids overlap with higher frequencies. The subwoofer also features precise phase and polarity adjustments, further facilitating integration with main speakers.
Adaptable Multitalent
The subwoofer can receive signals via either line or speaker level inputs, allowing it to be effortlessly integrated into both stereo and multi-channel systems. Wireless connectivity is also possible, thanks to the separately sold JLINK™ TRX system, which allows the subwoofer to be connected to the system without a signal cable up to 30 meters away.
Because the subwoofer produces an immense amount of energy, exceptional attention was paid to cabinet design to keep cabinet resonances minimal and prevent them from interfering with the purity of the reproduction. The walls are made of thick CNC-machined MDF board, and robust cross-bracing has been installed inside the cabinet to further improve the cabinet's 'deadness'.
