To complement its new line of high performance satellite speaker systems, HaflerÆ, the leader in amplifiers for the audiophile, studio, post production and broadcast markets, unveils the VRM Series of subwoofers - VRM10s, VRM12s & VRM15s, which are specially designed for home theatre applications. Along with the VRM satellite speaker line, these subs will deliver the ultimate in the home theatre audio experience. The new VRM series of speakers and subs will be available through select e-tailers and the www.hafler.com website.""Using our renowned and award-winning engineering capacity here at Hafler, we have created the ultimate in the home theatre audio experience,"" explains Jerry Cave, Hafler Managing Director. ""The VRM10s, VRM12s and VRM15s monitors utilize specially designed 200-watt amplifiers featuring Hafler's innovative Trans*ana circuitry, a technical design feature Hafler incorporates into our professional series of audio products."" The amplifiers feature an auto on/off circuit that eliminates the need for conventional power switch. Input signals can be fed into the amplifier via unbalanced RCA jacks or speaker-level input jacks. Each pair of inputs is combined into a mono-summed signal before being fed into a 4th order Linkwitz-Riley low-pass crossover, adjustable from 40Hz-110Hz. If selected, the signal is then fed into the Phase Control that allows the phase of the signal to be adjusted at 90-degree, 180-degree or 270-degree increments.The VRM10s is a 10-inch (254mm) low frequency transducer that features a two-inch (51mm) voice coil and is driven by a 30oz. magnet. The VRM10s weighs 51lbs with dimensions of 14 (H) x 16 (W) x 17 (D) inches.The VRM12s is a 12-inch (305mm) low frequency transducer that features a two-and-a-half-inch (63.5mm) voice coil and is driven by a 102oz. magnet. The VRM12s weighs 74lbs with dimensions of 16 (H) x 18 (W) x 19 (D) inches.The VRM15s is a 15-inch (381mm) low frequency transducer that features a two-and-a-half-inch (63.5mm) voice coil and is driven by a 153oz. magnet. The VRM15s weighs 88lbs with dimensions of 18 (H) x 20 (W) x 21 (D) inches.All VRM transducers feature Cellulose Fiber cones for accurate sound reproduction and Santoprene Rubber Surrounds that are immune to temperature fluctuations. This specialized rubber surround controls woofer damping and reduces 2nd harmonic distortions for a very wide and flat frequency response.The VRM series voice coils are four layers of copper wound on aluminum formers. Aluminum voice coil formers provide excellent heat dissipation that provides higher power handling versus plastic or Kapton-type formers used by other manufacturers.""Hafler has been designing leading-edge professional monitors and amps for decades, and we have designed the VRM Series right alongside the same technology as that found in today's leading recording studio and broadcast environments,"" explains Cave. ""The combination of our VRM satellite speakers and VRM subs provides an amazing audio experience comparable to the professional sound system, encompassing the same sonic quality and impact that the home theatre enthusiast expects in his or her own living room.""For further information on the new Hafler VRM series of high-performance subwoofers and satellite speaker systems, please visit www.hafler.com.
