Reference-level Performance

As the core technology behind Descend's 3XR Architecure, its passive bass radiators enable the DN12 to play as loud and low as a 15" ported sub without unwanted port noise distortion. What you get is the best of both worlds: louder, clearer bass than a ported sub from a smaller enclosure than a sealed sub.

Loud & Clear

Descend's unique 3XR Architecture provides triple the bass-producing radiating surface area of a traditional ported subwoofer. This extra surface area moves more air, resulting in massive low end. And because 3XR doesn't use ports, it also provides crystal-clear sound with no port noise distortion.

Precision Tuning

The DN12's advanced Class H digital amplifier delivers continuous power to cleanly reproduce sustained bass below 25Hz. The DN12 delivers considerably higher power during short, transient peaks such as bass drum kicks and on-screen artillery blasts.

3XR™ Architecture for as much bass as a ported 15" subwoofer The DN12's 3XR Architecture provides triple the bass-producing radiating surface area of a traditional 12" ported subwoofer. This extra surface area moves more air, enabling the DN12 to play as loud and low as two similarly-sized 12" ported subwoofers. And because 3XR doesn't use ports, DN12 also provides crystal-clear bass with no port noise distortion.

Passive Radiators for louder, lower, cleaner bass As the core technology behind Descend's 3XR Architecure, its passive bass radiators enable the DN12 to play as loud and low as a 15" ported sub without unwanted port noise distortion. Passive radiators also deliver a smooth frequency response like a sealed sub, but with the port-like ability to play louder and lower in a smaller enclosure. What you get is the best of both worlds: louder, clearer bass than a ported sub from a smaller enclosure than a sealed sub.

Custom Class H Digital Amplification for powerful, clean performance down to 25Hz. The DN12's advanced Class H digital amplifier delivers continuous power to cleanly reproduce sustained bass below 25Hz. With real-time monitoring and adjustments to the sliding rail voltage, the DN12 delivers considerably higher power during short, transient peaks such as bass drum kicks and on-screen artillery blasts.

Advanced 56-Bit DSP for distortion-free longevity The advanced 56-bit Digital Signal Processor (DSP) extends and improves the DN12's bass response. The DSP tightly monitors and controls the woofer system to prevent distortion and woofer damage at ultra-high volumes with a minimum of audible artifacts.

Intelligent Phase Control™ for flawless system blending Intelligent Phase Control™ provides a full 360 degrees of customizable phase adjustment, always centered around the settings of the low-pass filter. This provides the ability to tune the subwoofer for minimal group delay between speakers and a flawless blending experience between your speakers and the subwoofer.
