Congratulations! You have invested in one of the
world's premier subwoofers.
The MartinLogan Dynamo 1500X subwoofer represents
the extension of an intensive, dedicated team research
program directed toward establishing a world class line
of reference subwoofers using leading-edge technology,
without compromising durability, reliability, craftsmanship
or aesthetics.
Dynamo 1500X uses a high-excursion driver to achieve
deep, tight, well-defined bass. A proprietary amplifier is
used to drive the output stage with precision and extremely
high efficiency. Low-pass filtering and phase control have
been designed to make integrating the Dynamo 1500X
subwoofer with MartinLogan and non-MartinLogan prod-
ucts both seamless and simple.
Additionally, Dynamo 1500X features the ability to con-
nect to PBK™ (Perfect Bass Kit) room correction technology
(sold separately). PBK measures acoustic output within
your room and optimizes the subwoofer's performance
within your unique listening environment.
The materials in your new subwoofer are of the highest
quality and will provide years of enduring enjoyment and
deepening respect. The cabinet is constructed from the
finest composite material for acoustical integrity and is fin-
ished with an attractive custom coating.
This User's Manual will explain in detail the operation of
your subwoofer and the philosophy applied to its design.
A clear understanding will insure that you obtain maxi-
mum performance and pleasure from this most exacting
subwoofer.
