Overview
The Magnat Signature Sub 530A is a subwoofer designed to meet the demands of low-frequency performance. This active subwoofer combines power, precision, and versatility, making it suitable for both hi-fi setups and home theater systems.
High-Level Acoustic Performance
At the heart of the Sub 530A is a large 12-inch (300 mm) front-firing driver. This long-throw woofer benefits from Klippel-optimized design technology to minimize distortion. Its treated paper cone ensures deep and precise bass reproduction.
The driver is housed in a bass-reflex enclosure with a laminar port, extending the response to ultra-low frequencies. The Sub 530A can reach down to 20 Hz, delivering an impressive reproduction of the deepest bass tones. Its frequency range spans from 20 to 200 Hz.
To power this demanding transducer, Magnat has equipped the Sub 530A with a Class D digital amplifier delivering 140 W RMS, with peaks up to 280 watts. This generous amplification allows the Sub 530A to produce powerful and dynamic bass, even at high volumes.
Optimal Integration into Any System
The Sub 530A offers multiple settings to perfectly adapt to any acoustic environment. Its crossover frequency is adjustable between 40 and 120 Hz, ensuring seamless integration with main speakers. A phase adjustment from 0 to 180° is also available for flawless system alignment.
The subwoofer’s volume is adjustable, as is the active equalization of the frequency response up to 120 Hz. These fine-tuning options ensure perfect coherence with the rest of the system, whether in stereo or multichannel configurations.
In terms of connectivity, the Sub 530A features a stereo line input via RCA connectors and an LFE input for connection to a home theater amplifier. A switch allows you to select the power supply voltage between 100 and 240V, ensuring global compatibility.
Sophisticated Electronics
The Sub 530A’s built-in electronics incorporate advanced technologies to optimize its performance. An active frequency response correction circuit (LPC) ensures seamless integration into any audio-video environment.
A real-time limiter prevents overload risks and reduces distortion at high volumes. The Sub 530A also features an automatic low-power standby mode (less than 0.5W), which can be disabled if needed.
The switching power supply contributes to the amplifier’s high efficiency while limiting heat generation despite the power output. The entire electronic system has been optimized to deliver top performance in a compact format.
Elegant and Robust Design
The Sub 530A boasts a sleek and elegant design that blends harmoniously into any interior. Its high-quality MDF cabinet is available in two finishes: black lacquer or mocha. The front panel is adorned with a brushed titanium-effect Magnat metal logo, adding a refined touch.
The subwoofer rests on rubber feet that effectively absorb vibrations and prevent them from being transmitted to the floor. Its compact dimensions of 35.5 x 47.5 x 42 cm (W x H x D) make it easy to place in the listening room. Despite its compact size, the Sub 530A weighs a substantial 17.4 kg, a testament to its robust construction.
