Resulting from proprietary development, the driver of the 12.17 has its origins in the drivers of the XTZ Cinema series. These high-speed drivers achieve their extraordinary properties through the use of very light and extremely rigid materials that enable the driver to perform with maximum precision and the highest dynamics. The 800W amplifier provides large headroom and high power for tight and at the same time extremely deep bass in home cinemas, as well as putting in place a discreet sound foundation for the enjoyment of music. Its perfect clipping characteristic gives it higher headroom for maximum dynamics.

With the adjustable equalizers on the back of the subwoofer, the sound of the 12.17 can be adapted perfectly to your needs and your room. While the EQ ‚¬œREF‚¬? provides maximum depth in the bass, ‚¬œEQ1‚¬? cuts the deepest frequencies to adapt the sound to smaller rooms with high room gain. ‚¬œEQ2‚¬? lifts the kick bass to achieve a punchier bass. In addition, the subwoofer can be operated in a sealed mode using the supplied plugs for the bass reflex tubes. The plugs also offer several combinations to perfectly adjust the sound to your wishes.

The heavy weight of the 12.17 is due not just to the heavy magnet of the driver but mainly from the stable external walls made of MDF, as well as numerous internal stiffeners. Together with the damping material, internal resonances are reduced to an absolute minimum which leads to outstanding control and high dynamics. Due to its perfectly sized volume, the driver always operates in an ideal range and thus provides maximum precision and accuracy.
