PreSonus is shipping the new Temblor T10 subwoofer, designed to complement full-range studio reference monitors, including the PreSonus Eris and Sceptre
The T10 is intended for serious personal studios and professional music-production environments, offering a tight low end due to fast and accurate transient response and providing user controls not normally available in this price range.
The T10 incorporates a 10-inch glass-composite woofer, driven by 250 watts of Class AB power; a front-firing, bass-reflex acoustic port; optimized, resonance-suppressing internal bracing; and internal damping and heat sink. Frequency response ranges from 20 Hz to 130 Hz.
The new subwoofer sports left and right, balanced XLR and 1/4-inch TRS and unbalanced RCA main inputs; if both XLR and TRS inputs are connected, the TRS input takes precedence. The T10 has left and right balanced XLR and 1/4-inch TRS outputs and an extra subwoofer output for connecting a second T10.
User controls include input gain (-30 dB to +6 dB, continuously variable) and a continuously variable low-pass filter (50 Hz to 130 Hz) that allows users to create a seamless crossover transition between their full-range studio monitors and subwoofer for a more accurate listening environment.
A switchable high-pass filter removes frequency content below 80 Hz from the full-range signal sent from the T10 outputs to the main monitors, avoiding destructive cancellation and reinforcement in the T10’s upper range.
The T10 also offers a momentary footswitch (included) that bypasses the subwoofer, high-pass filter, and Sub Out. This allows the audio source signal to pass directly through the Temblor T10 to the full-range studio monitors, enabling users to compare mixes with and without subharmonic frequencies, helping to ensure mixes will sound good on a wide variety of systems.
Polarity invert and a ground-lift switches are also provided. The T10 measures 15.75 x 15.75 x 12.6 inches and weighs 39.5 pounds. The enclosure has integrated, gravity-calibrated rubber feet for stable placement.
The Temblor T10 is available immediately. Expected MAP/street price is $399.95.
