Emotiva Triples Airmotiv™ Subwoofer Selection With Two New High-Powered Models

Airmotiv S12 and S15 Feature Increased Power Handling with Clean, Low Distortion Performance

August 14, 2018

Emotiva Audio Corporation , the company that continually proves high-performance audio doesn’t have be high-priced, today announced the availability of two new Airmotiv subwoofers – 12” Airmotiv™ S12 and 15” Airmotiv™ S15. The two new models join the 10” Airmotiv S10, rounding out the line to three high-performance subwoofers that reproduce the lowest frequencies with equally low distortion.

Similar to the S10, both of the new Emotiva Audio Airmotiv subwoofers employ a downward firing design featuring a high-excursion passive radiator and high-output amplifiers. Cabinets are constructed of heavily braced, acoustically inert HDF (high- density fiberboard), with integral shock absorbing feet and removable grilles. Airmotiv subwoofer drivers utilize non-pressed treated paper cones, reinforced with
aramid fibers, for excellent rigidity and optimal internal acoustic damping. The active driver features a powerful motor assembly with a large double-stacked ferrite magnet, and a 3” heavy-duty solid copper voice coil. Forced air cooling, a vented pole piece, and vents placed under the spider add up to hours of extended use under demanding conditions. Front bezels are finished with multiple coats of black lacquer, while the sides and rear are covered in durable, attractive textured vinyl.

“The Airmotiv speaker series is our response to anyone who thinks audiophile-grade sonics and rugged construction are only available at unnecessarily high prices,” said Dan Laufman, President and CEO, Emotiva Audio Corp. “But if I say so myself, we outdid ourselves with the new Airmotiv subs, especially the S15. Nothing in their price class comes remotely close to the level of accuracy and refinement achieved by these subwoofers.”

Emotiva Audio’s most powerful subwoofer, Airmotiv S15 (SRP: $1,199.00), blends excellent technical performance and tremendous bass output in a sub that is equally capable of shaking the rafters while exposing subtle nuances of the lowest frequencies in acoustic music. The 15” Airmotiv S15 boasts a powerful 650 Watt RMS Class D amplifier with the most current MOSFET technology, and a linear power supply with a toroidal power transformer to fill a large room with clean, low distortion bass. An advanced multi-stage limiter protects against power overloads and ensures distortion is kept to the absolute bare minimum. The 12” Airmotiv S12 (SRP: $799.00) exemplifies Emotiva Audio’s commitment to building powerful subwoofers at real-world prices. The 500 Watt S12 is designed as the perfect complement to a multichannel home theater, or as the final nuanced ingredient in a 2.1-channel system.
