D2Audio Announces the First Intelligent Amplifiers for Subwoofers, the WXS Series.AUSTIN, Texas -- D2Audio, the world's only manufacturer of intelligent digital amplifiers See Class D amplifier. , today announced it's first amplifiers specifically designed for subwoofers, the WXS WXS W3C XML Schema series. The WXS600 and WXS300 amplifiers are true powerhouses, optimized for high continuous power output levels (600W RMS (1) (Record Management Services) A file management system used in VAXs. (2) (Root Mean Square) A method used to measure electrical output in volts and watts. 1. RMS - Record Management Services. 2. and 300W RMS respectively) as well as offering peak power of over 1,000W (for the WXS600). Measuring only 3.5 x 5 x 2 inches and weighing under 6 ounces, the WXS series of amplifier modules are perfectly designed to dramatically reduce the size & weight of subwoofer A speaker that reproduces the lower end of the audio spectrum. A subwoofer system may include a crossover circuit which switches frequencies at approximately 100Hz and under to the subwoofer, while passing the rest of the signal to the main speakers. . The WXS' all digital audio processing enabling subwoofer manufacturers to quickly activate and optimize their speaker cabinet designs without the need and expense of developing complex passive crossovers. The amplifiers output connects directly to the driver itself and easily attaches to their backplate and/or heatsink. All WXS amplifiers come with Audio Canvas, a powerful development tool that lets speaker designers graphically control the internal DSP (1) (Digital Signal Processor) A special-purpose CPU used for digital signal processing applications (see definition #2 below). It provides ultra-fast instruction sequences, such as shift and add, and multiply and add, which are commonly used in math-intensive to customize signal processing See DSP. and save the optimized configuration as the amplifier's default. D2Audio's own PWM-controller IC technology with embedded Inserted into. See embedded system. DSP core allow OEM's to easily tailor and differentiate their system's sound and features. As an example: D2's technology optionally enables "Automatic Room Mode Correction" (ARMC ARMC Arrowhead Regional Medical Center (Colton, CA) ARMC Alpena Regional Medical Center (Alpena, MI) ARMC American Rental Management Company (Waldorf, Maryland) ) right from the amplifier itself as well as complete digital control from a remote control or the receiver. The WXS also includes sophisticated signal processing featuring fully customizable parametric EQ's, crossovers, continuous phase control/adjustment, compressor/limiters, and more. As a complete D2Audio sub-assembly, the WXS accelerates subwoofer design time to market for speaker manufacturers. It offers a pure digital signal path while operating at 93% efficiency, reducing heat and system size. D2Audio's patented amplifier controls allows for sophisticated protection, fault recovery and actual "cycle by cycle" management of dynamic amp currents to enable a stable and robust amplifier solution into demanding speaker loads, even under the toughest home-theater or music conditions. The WXS series is optimized for performance with both linear power supplies and switch mode power supplies allowing for maximum performance and minimum cost. It offers flexible product optimizing features like three independent channels of audio processing for full control over both the subwoofer outputs as well as the digital signal outputs which can enable line level, line-level, post processed output. D2Audio The D2Audio Corporation, maker of the world's only intelligent digital amplifiers, supplies a full line of cost efficient, powerful, multi-channel amplifier modules to the manufacturers of high quality audio equipment in the consumer, professional, and automotive industries Automotive Industries, Ltd. (Hebrew: תעשיות רכב נצרת עלית, תע"ר . The patented intelligent technology and custom digital audio processors give D2Audio's digital amplifiers market leading performance and superior sound quality, along with a wide range of customization features.
