 Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the new Emotiva Airmotiv™ Reference Subwoofer. 
All Emotiva Airmotiv™ Subwoofers are designed to reproduce the lowest frequencies in the audio 

spectrum accurately and with exceptionally low distortion - even at the high listening levels found in 

modern movies. All of our Airmotiv Reference Subwoofers deliver the dynamics and raw power you 

need to make a modern movie sound track rattle the walls... with the precision and superb musicality 

you need to get the most from well recorded music. With our Reference Subwoofers, you don’t have to 

compromise; you really can have it all.
The Airmotiv Reference Subwoofers were designed from the ground up to deliver the lowest octaves 

in the audio spectrum with the ultimate in precision, accuracy, and authority. The Airmotiv RS13 is flat 

/- 3 dB all the way down to an astonishing 16 Hz, and the Airmotiv RS11 is flat within  

+/- 3 dB down to 20 Hz, so you will be able to actually feel the sound effects in your favorite movie,  

or the lowest tones in a well recorded pipe organ recital.
The ultra high performance forward firing drivers, with their high profile double roll NBR surrounds, 

massive Strontium Ferrite magnet structures, and all aluminum voice coils, have plenty of excursion 

to deliver truly prodigious amounts of bass, even at the lowest frequencies. The cone and other 

components in the moving systems of the drivers are optimized for both strength and low mass, 

enabling them to deliver excellent linearity, superb transient response, and very low distortion.
The front baffle on the massive, critically braced HDF cabinets is a full 50mm thick, and the cabinets are 

finished on all sides with either furniture grade black lacquer or a high-gloss piano black finish. The slot 

loaded front firing port is precisely contoured to avoid any trace of port chuffing or other unwanted 

noise. Controls are located conveniently on the top panel, under a recessed magnetically attached 

smoked plastic cover, and the drivers are  protected by an attractive sculpted fabric grill, firmly 

attached by powerful magnets for easy removal.  
The electronic components in the Airmotiv Reference Subwoofers are no less impressive.  The 

sophisticated electronic crossover is implemented in a powerful 48 bit DSP audio processor. Both 

the Airmotiv Reference Subwoofers are powered by audiophile quality Class D amplifiers: 1000 watts 

continuous / 2000 watts peak on the RS13; 500 watts continuous / 1000 watts peak on the RS11. 

Controls are provided to adjust the level, crossover frequency, and phase on the Reference Subwoofers, 

and may be fully bypassed when you use the RS13 or RS11 with a system that already has its own bass 

management. The Reference Subwoofers also offer the choice of two different bass profiles. The Deep 

profile offers the flattest overall performance. The Flat profile imposes a very slight rolloff at the very 

lowest subsonic frequencies, in return for slightly more maximum output at higher frequencies. The 

Reference Subwoofers also include a handy Loop output for connecting another sub - if you really 

think you need one.
If you’ve been looking for the ultimate sub then you’ve come to the right place.
The Airmotiv Reference Subwoofers - power unleashed.

Happy listening!
The Emotiva Team
