B120
Subwoofer Specifications
Transducer
The B120’s proprietary woofer diaphragm is constructed
of micro ceramic composite (MCC), a new material
created by adonizing both sides of an aluminum
core. Anodizing both sides of an aluminum core adds
strength and stiffness – but very little weight – to a material
already well suited for use in transducer diaphragms.
The B120 spider incorporates a superior-strength
Nomex
®
/cotton blend with optimized geometry for
increased linearity.
The large ceramic magnet motor system includes a
2" (51mm)- diameter copper voice coil wound on a
Kapton
®
bobbin for impressive power handling and
freedom from dynamic compression. A vented center
pole facilitates heat dissipation, allowing more efficient
cooling for high-power handling and low compression.

Built-In Wireless Receiver
With an optional TX1 wireless transmitter connected to
your audio system, the B120 can be placed anywhere in
your room within reach of an AC outlet. One or two B120
subwoofers can be operated with a single TX1 transmitter.

Fully Parametric Room EQ
Any subwoofer’s performance will be, to at least some
degree, affected by the acoustics of the room in which
the subwoofer is used, and where in the room the
sub is situated. Certain low-bass frequencies may be
adversely affected by standing waves (also known as
room modes), where some frequencies are exaggerated
(peaks), while others might be diminished (dips). To
tame the subwoofer’s response in the listening room,
the B120 features a parametric room EQ function, with
controls for frequency, level and bandwidth to tune out
room-induced response anomalies.
Cabinet/Port
The B120 cabinet is constructed of rigid MDF with
extensive internal bracing to reduce cabinet-induced
colorations. A downward-firing port allows for placement
against a wall or in a cabinet. Rubber-padded feet ensure
optimal stability on any floor surface.
