Customer Review
Great deal on a fine subwoofer
I recently replaced my 14 year old Velodyne FSR-12 with the DD-15. I did so because the FSR-12 was struggling in our new house with larger great room, and because the DD-15 was on sale due to its being replaced soon by the DD-15 Plus (at considerably higher price).The DD-15 is cruising in our new house. It really provides the bottom end that my Klipsch Heresies cannot. And it does not run out of steam at high volume, like the FSR-12 did.I am mainly a music guy, not so much into home theatre. The DD-15 brings music to life and makes the singers and instruments seem to be in the room with you. Everything you need is included, and the calibration software is a snap to use. The cabinetry is first rate. I got the cherry finish, and although I can't tell if it is really cherry; I would not bet money against it. It looks that good.I am quite pleased with Velodyne as a company, and I love my DD-15.

Product Description
Velodyne's THX Ultra2 Certified D-15 powered subwoofer has a built-in 'Class D' amplifier that provides a staggering 1,250 watts RMS and 3,000 watts peak power. The 15" forward firing Kevlar-reinforced resin driver has a 12.7" piston diameter, 3" push-pull tandem voice coil, and 24 lb. magnet structure. The DD-15 includes Velodyne's revolutionary Digital Drive room management software that works with the included microphone to optimize performance for any room position. Inputs include RCA and XLR LFE, line-level RCA, and speaker level binding posts. A full-featured wireless remote comes standard. Digital Drive DSP-based subwoofers are the finest subwoofers ever made by Velodyne. And that's saying a lot. They embody all of Velodyne's industry-leading knowledge and experience in low frequency technology. Velodyne pioneered the use of Digital Signal Processing (DSP) for subwoofers. This technology provides incredibly accurate, reliable, and feature-laden performance. The software that runs Digital Drive subwoofers was 100 percent custom written by Velodyne engineers for the best possible sound quality. Digital Drive-Series subs feature Velodyne's revolutionary Digital Drive room management software that takes subwoofer room equalization to an unprecedented level. The built-in Real Time Analyzer (RTA) allows the subwoofer's frequency response to be measured using a calibrated microphone and viewed graphically on any standard TV. The onboard digital toolset, which includes a graphic equalizer, is used to optimize performance for any room position and to perfectly blend the subwoofer with the main speakers. All Digital Drive-Series subs come preprogrammed with six listening mode presets for Action Adventure Movies, Rock/Pop, Jazz/Classical, a custom preset, and EQ defeat. Each preset also has a "theater/music" setting that allows the sub to play louder (for movies) or tighter (for music) depending on the source content. Top to learn more
