The V-SUB is a high-performance, flyable cardioid
Subwoofer engineered for professional audio applications where precision low-frequency reproduction and efficient energy control are essential. Designed to complement the V8 and V12 line array systems, this subwoofer delivers powerful bass response with minimal rearward sound leakage—ideal for live events, touring productions, and permanent installations. Its innovative dual-driver configuration combines an 18-inch bass-reflex woofer facing forward with a 12-inch bandpass driver radiating backward, creating a directional cardioid dispersion pattern that reduces unwanted reflections in enclosed spaces and enhances clarity across the entire frequency spectrum. Key features include a rugged marine-grade plywood cabinet with Polyurea Cabinet Protection (PCP) finish for durability against impact and environmental exposure, a front-mounted rigid metal grille backed by acoustically transparent foam for driver protection without compromising sound quality, and integrated rigging hardware for safe overhead mounting or ground stacking. The unit weighs 64 kg (141 lbs), making it both portable enough for frequent setup changes and robust enough for heavy-duty use. With a maximum SPL of 137 dB, the V-SUB ensures consistent performance even in large venues or outdoor festivals. This subwoofer excels in scenarios requiring precise low-end control—such as theater sound reinforcement, club installations, and mobile DJ setups—where minimizing feedback and optimizing audience immersion are critical. It integrates seamlessly into existing V-series arrays or functions independently as a dedicated low-frequency column. The design shares visual and acoustic characteristics with the V-GSUB but offers enhanced flexibility through its flyable capability, making it suitable for both temporary and permanent installations. Users appreciate the V-SUB’s ability to deliver tight, articulate bass while maintaining clean integration with mid-high frequency loudspeakers. Many professionals note how its cardioid pattern significantly improves system efficiency by reducing standing waves and reverberation in complex acoustic environments. While some initial setup may be required to optimize phase alignment with main arrays, the long-term benefits in sound quality and system stability make it a worthwhile investment. Common questions often revolve around compatibility—yes, the V-SUB pairs effortlessly with V8 and V12 models using standard mounting hardware—and power requirements. It operates efficiently with a single-channel amplifier rated for high peak power handling, ensuring reliable performance under demanding conditions. Unlike traditional subwoofers that emit energy omnidirectionally, the V-SUB's directional design minimizes unnecessary low-frequency buildup behind the array, resulting in cleaner overall sound and improved audience experience. In summary, the V-SUB stands out as a premium choice for sound engineers seeking accurate, controllable sub-bass performance in diverse acoustic settings. Whether deployed in a touring rig, fixed installation, or hybrid configuration, it delivers exceptional value through advanced engineering, durability, and seamless integration within the V-series ecosystem.
