M&K Sound, a company who claims the mantel as inventors of the satellite/subwoofer speaker combination for full-range home audio reproduction, has announced the availability of three brand new THX Certified subwoofers, the X15+, X12+ and X10+. The three new subwoofers, each with M&K Sound’s signature push-pull driver configuration, build on the performance of the company’s former X Series for deeper, faster, and louder bass. Each model has achieved THX status, with the X15+ being the company’s first 15in push-pull subwoofer to be THX Certification Dominus class, whether used as a single subwoofer or as a pair. M&K Sound’s expert engineering team has also added numerous upgrades to the original X Series, including significant RMS and peak wattage power hikes to enable cleaner performance over the former X10 and X12 models, care of brand-new Danish designed and built ICE Class D power amplifiers. Highlights include updated and redesigned woofers with 30 per cent larger voice coils and magnets (X12+ and X10+) facilitate the substantial power output of the new subwoofers. Additionally, increased linear excursion ensures the handling of this available extra power without ever sacrificing sensitivity or succumbing to distortion. Massive, measured performance enhancements over the original X-Series include an ability to let the audience experience new depths with ‘feel it but can’t hear it’ bass frequencies as low as 16Hz (X15+), 18Hz (X12+) and 20Hz (X10+).
New Carbon Fibre Woofer Cones have been developed for all models with ultra-high strength and rigidity to accommodate the added power and excursion of the new X+ Series. M&K Sound’s proprietary CNCmachined extruded aluminium Distortion Killer Shorting Rings also guarantee absolute control and exemplary, distortion-free performance in all settings. M&K Sound’s Push-Pull subwoofer architecture and ‘reversed double driver’ non-isobaric configuration means that both drivers in the cabinet are ‘exposed’ to room air. Consequently, and like the X-Series before it, the X+ Series models are effectively two subwoofers in one cabinet enabling a further associated reduction in distortion. M&K Sound mksound.com
The X+ Series will be available in January 2022
MAGICO ANNOUNCES THE BIRTH OF A TITAN Magico LLC, high-performance loudspeaker designer and maker, has announced the TITAN 15: a new pinnacle of Magico engineering and design vision for the ultimate subwoofer. The TITAN 15 is designed to reproduce low frequency sounds with realistic force and energy. Billed as setting a new benchmark in powered subwoofer design, the TITAN 15 features a sophisticated control centre, dual-opposed force cancelling driver arrangement with a massive, sealed aluminium enclosure. This subwoofer design extends beyond the bandwidth of human hearing (>20Hz) into infrasonic levels and expands the dimensional sound field in any room space with unparalleled low bass performance, says the maker. The 15-inch driver in the TITAN 15 is optimized to deliver maximum output levels (136 dB) while minimizing music related distortions at 20Hz (>1% THD). The incredibly stiff aluminium cone is formed with an optimized stiffness to weight ratio and includes a 4-inch high-temperature voice coil attached to a custom tooled 10-inch dual progressive spider which facilitates 1.6-inches of linear travel in each direction. Each driver has a massive motor system which can handle 3200-watts of continuous power and features a super stabilized magnetic field with multiple aluminium shorting rings to stabilize inductance and minimize distortion.
The enclosure design of the TITAN 15 follows the QSUB design platform and uses innovative internal bracing along with advanced damping materials. The thick aluminium sealed enclosure has been carefully designed and evaluated both in simulation and physical testing to meet the no-holds barred approach of Magico when it comes to enclosure rigidity, stability, and minimum acoustical contribution. The TITAN 15 includes two powerful 3200watt Class D amplifiers governed by a state-of-theart electronic crossover and DSP control center designed by Magico that enables the user to precisely calibrate and match the TITAN 15 subwoofer to the main L/R loudspeakers and listening room.
