Reproducing low frequencies with authority, precision and dynamic control is essential for achieving a realistic and immersive sound experience. For the VOCE II line, the Audison R&D team set a bold objective: design subwoofers capable of delivering powerful, articulate bass while maintaining tonal balance and mechanical reliability, even under the most demanding conditions.
To achieve this, the AV 10 II and AV 12 II subwoofers were engineered from the ground up, incorporating advanced materials, proprietary technologies and extensive FEM simulations to refine every acoustic and mechanical parameter.
Advanced Driver Design
The VOCE II subwoofers feature a newly developed, long-excursion driver that combines a high-power motor structure with a lightweight, yet rigid, aluminum cone. This innovative design allows for exceptional low-frequency extension and dynamic range, without compromising control or linearity.
The motor assembly incorporates a high-energy neodymium magnet system and a large, ventilated voice coil that ensures efficient heat dissipation, even during extended high-power operation. The suspension system, comprising a progressive spider and surround, has been meticulously tuned to provide the optimal balance between excursion, linearity and mechanical stability.
Optimized Enclosure Design
Maximizing subwoofer performance in real-world installations requires more than just a high-quality driver. It demands an acoustically tuned, mechanically optimized enclosure. The VOCE II AVBX 10 II and AVBX 12 II sealed boxes were developed in parallel with their respective subwoofers to form a complete, ready-to-use low-frequency solution.
The enclosures are constructed from high-density MDF, strategically braced to minimize cabinet vibration and resonance. The internal volume and tuning have been carefully calculated to complement the subwoofer drivers, ensuring optimal efficiency and low-frequency extension.
Acoustic Optimization
To further enhance the acoustic performance, the VOCE II enclosures incorporate several innovative features. The use of a dual-layer damping material, combined with strategically placed acoustic absorption panels, effectively controls internal standing waves and resonances, resulting in a clean, distortion-free low-frequency response.
The front baffle features a recessed, chamfered design that minimizes diffraction effects and optimizes the subwoofer's dispersion characteristics. This, combined with the carefully engineered port geometry, ensures a smooth transition between the subwoofer and the rest of the audio system.
Mechanical Refinement
In addition to the acoustic optimization, the VOCE II enclosures have been engineered for superior mechanical integrity. The cabinet walls are reinforced with internal bracing, while the front baffle is secured with heavy-duty screws to provide a solid, vibration-free mounting platform for the subwoofer driver.
The enclosures are finished in a sleek, high-quality black vinyl that not only looks great in any installation, but also provides a durable, scratch-resistant surface. Integrated rubber feet and a recessed terminal cup ensure a secure and tidy installation, whether the subwoofer is placed on the floor or in a custom enclosure.
Uncompromising Performance
The combination of the advanced driver design and the optimized enclosure results in a subwoofer system that delivers uncompromising performance. The VOCE II subwoofers are capable of producing powerful, articulate bass with exceptional low-frequency extension and dynamic range.
Thanks to the advanced motor structure and suspension system, the subwoofers maintain tonal balance and mechanical reliability, even when pushed to their limits. This makes them an ideal choice for a wide range of applications, from high-end home theater systems to professional audio installations.
Conclusion
The new Audison VOCE II subwoofers represent a significant advancement in low-frequency reproduction. By combining cutting-edge driver technology with meticulously engineered enclosures, Audison has created a subwoofer system that sets a new benchmark for power, precision and reliability.
