MARTINLOGAN SUB CONTROL APP (AVAILABLE FOR iOS AND ANDROID)

MartinLogan's Subwoofer Control app uses Bluetooth to simplify setup and configuration of Dynamo 600X, 800X, 1100X, and 1600X. App-based controls include volume level, low-pass filter (frequency and order), phase, 20-30Hz level, three preset listening modes, and control of Anthem Room Correction. A unique Tone Scan feature helps users locate areas in listening rooms where unwanted noise or resonances may occur. A single press of a button allows listeners to initiate a tone sweep from 20-120Hz. If a rattle or resonance occurs in the room, any frequency can be held, allowing the listener to investigate and identify the source of the unwanted noise.

ARC MOBILE APP (AVAILABLE FOR iOS AND ANDROID)

In the lab, MartinLogan engineers are committed to transparency. Outside the lab, there’s one wild card our engineers can never account for: the listening room. The unique size and shape of a listening space (and its contents) can cause bass waves to do unpredictable things, dramatically impacting a subwoofer’s overall performance. Anthem Room Correction measures the low-frequency output in a room and compares it to optimal response curves that account for spatial anomalies. Anthem Room Correction’s advanced algorithms effectively remove anomalies, leaving only the ideal standard—realistic, natural-sounding bass. Dynamo 600X, 800X, 1100X, and 1600X use a Bluetooth connection to a smartphone or a USB connection to a PC to run Anthem Room Correction.

OPTIONAL SWT-X WIRELESS INPUT

While proper placement is key to optimizing subwoofer performance, it sometimes imposes the inconvenience of running long lengths of cable through walls, baseboards, or under floors and carpets. To solve this problem, Dynamo 600X, 800X, 1100X, and 1600X include a connection port for an optional wireless system. MartinLogan's new SWT-X Wireless Subwoofer System (sold separately) incorporates the latest in wireless audio transmission technology, including 2.4GHz dynamic frequency selection, forward error correction, and a range of up to 50 feet. Easy to install in your subwoofer, the SWT-X receiver requires no external power source or audio connections.

2-CHANNEL LEFT AND RIGHT INPUTS

Dynamo 400, 600X, 800X, 1100X and 1600X subwoofers feature left and right inputs via RCA line level and speaker level connections.

LFE HOME THEATER INPUT

Dynamo 400 and 600X's right inputs double as an LFE input for home theater applications. Dynamo 800X ups the ante by adding a discrete RCA LFE line level input. Dynamo 1100X and 1600X take things a step further by adding XLR and RCA inputs for LFE connection.

POWERFUL, HIGH-EXCURSION, LOW-TURBULENCE, INVERTED SURROUND WOOFERS

The latest generation of MartinLogan Dynamo subwoofers feature advanced-design woofers with inverted surrounds and powerful magnet, motor, and suspension designs. In forward-firing mode, the unique inverted surround design maximizes excursion clearance behind the grille cover. When positioned in a down-firing configuration, the inverted surround significantly reduces airflow turbulence for an articulated and detailed low-frequency experience. These advanced-technology woofers pair a high-power magnet structure (significantly more robust than previous generations) with low-mass diaphragms to deliver massive excursions while perfectly preserving the finest bass detail. The exceptional damping properties of the cone ensure the smooth, non-resonant response needed for truly seamless blending with high-performance loudspeakers. Every element of the Dynamo subwoofers has been meticulously designed to deliver incredibly low-frequency performance, all without a hint of distortion.

ADVANCED ULTRA-EFFICIENT SWITCHING MODE POWER SUPPLIES AND CLASS-D AMPLIFIERS

The Dynamo subwoofers’ Class-D amplifiers operate with extremely low distortion levels and deliver dynamic impact with plenty of overhead. The low-noise, high-power switch-mode power supplies efficiently produce clean power in a small space and effortlessly deliver huge levels of current. Both feature high-quality MOSFET transistors, transformers, noise-suppression networks and control circuitry. The switch mode power supply combined with reliable Class D technology means there is virtually no energy lost in the subwoofer system.

INVERSE MATHEMATICAL EQUALIZATION (IME) FILTER

The IME filter used in Dynamo subwoofers is derived from the inverse of the unfiltered driver response. Precision IME filtering provides extremely accurate low frequency response, superior to that provided by simple second order Q filters typically found in subwoofers in this price range.

LOW TURBULANCE PORTS

When properly optimized and executed, ports are a convenient and cost-effective way to increase low frequency output. Dynamo 400 and 600X feature tuned long-turbulence ports, designed to provide excellent low-end extension while minimizing port-induced distortion.
