Digital Drive User’s Manual
C
ongratulations on your purchase of a Velodyne Digital Drive subwoofer system! Digital Drive
technology, universally acknowledged as the state
-of-the-art in bass reproduction, is the result
of years of research and development, combining advanced Digital Signal Processing (DSP),
software, equalizer, audio filter, digital amplifier, digital servo control, and high
-pressure
loudspeaker technologies. The result is a new subwoofer design that takes our traditionally
accurate low
-frequency sound reproduction to new levels of precision, eliminates room
anomalies, and resolves many tradeoffs that encumber lesser subwoofer products.
This exceptional subwoofer will provide you with years of unparalleled listening pleasure.
Enjoy!
