(September 23, 2023) The inventor of the soft dome tweeter, PhaseTech, arrived at CEDIA 2023, locked and loaded with all sorts of audio goodies. We caught up with Ken Hecht for a complete rundown on everything new! For more information, read Phase Tech's full CEDIA press release below.
Nearly 70 years of audio engineering expertise is epitomized in the launch of PhaseTech’s Power Lux DSP subwoofers. Using DSP to control the amplifier and driver, these subwoofers create a new standard for low frequency output and max SPL. Power Lux will debut four notable models at CEDIA Expo in Denver, Colorado, from September 7-9, 2023, at booth 909.
The Power Lux DSP subwoofers - the PL-10S and PL-12S compact sealed subs and the PL-10P and PL-12P ported subwoofers have output as low as 17 Hz. Power Lux DSP subs will play louder and go lower than anything in comparable sized cabinets. The DSP subs are enriched by an integrated 900-Watt peak power amplifier.
Enclosed in either a sealed or ported design, each featuring a 10” or 12” long-throw mica-graphite poly cone with NBR Surround, these auditory powerhouses are equipped with a dedicated app (iOS and Android compatible) which is used to control level, phase, EQ, high/low pass crossovers, signal sensing auto turn on/off, and user-generated presets for audio personalization. The subs come with LFE and stereo inputs/outputs. The inputs and outputs have independent high pass and low pass control making the subs usable as part of a sub/sat system or can be daisy chained with multiple subs.
The Power Lux subwoofers and Premier Lux speakers set a bold aesthetic tone, pairing contemporary finishes with standard or custom colors. The subs come standard in a classic black finish or can be custom painted in any matte or high-gloss color. Each subwoofer and speaker, individually sold, is handmade and receives meticulous craftsmanship and painting at our Jacksonville, Florida facility.
"When you blend exceptional sound precision, iconic design, and modern finishes, you're not just presenting a new standard for integrators but creating a customized immersive sensory experience," said Ken Hecht, vice president of MSE Audio. "Coupling a set of Premier Lux speakers with our new Power Lux DSP subwoofers yields a symphony of sound, conjuring the magic of a live performance."
The complementing Premier Lux audiophile speakers come in an array of configurations: bookshelf, center channel, surround, and tower. These speakers come equipped with one or more patented 6.5-inch tri-laminate Kevlar RPF® glass fiber flat-piston woofer, and 28 mm high-performance soft dome tweeter(s), delivering a sonic landscape as vast and varied as an orchestra's repertoire. The flat plane surface of the woofer coupled with our Absolute Phase® crossovers amplifies vertical and horizontal dispersion patterns, introducing remarkable placement flexibility and a sweet spot that’s as wide as a concert hall.
