About the Velodyne Acoustics Deep Waves 10
Velodyne Acoustics Deep Waves 10: app-controlled subwoofer with passive radiators
The Deep Waves 10 combines a 10-inch front-firing active driver with side-firing passive radiators in a braced, matte black MDF cabinet. A 350 W RMS Class D amplifier (600 W dynamic) drives it, and Velodyne rates it at 28-200 Hz (±3 dB). The iWoofer app lets you adjust it from the listening position.
System matching
Connect it to an AV receiver or processor with the RCA LFE input, or to a stereo amplifier with the high-level terminals. The 50 to 180 Hz low-pass crossover and 0/180 degree phase switch help it blend with your main speakers. The iWoofer app is available for iOS; Velodyne advises that it may not be installable from Google Play on some Android devices.
How it fits the range
Deep Waves comes in 10 and 12-inch sizes. The Deep Waves 12 adds a larger driver and passive radiators, more power (400 W RMS) and deeper extension (25-180 Hz ±3 dB).
