Velocity Reflex

Velocity Reflex (VR) is a patent pending subwoofer technology originally developed for vehicles. VR is an acoustically filtered infinite baffle system. It has the capability of providing quite high SPL at low frequencies with a small enclosure size. It also has the unique advantage of providing high SPL inside the vehicle without causing nuisance sound outside the vehicle.

The advantages of VR to manufacturers are numerous:

• It can be hidden away, for example below the rear parcel shelf.
• It minimises cutting of the vehicle as it requires only a small duct into the passenger compartment of the vehicle.
• It is smaller and lower cost than competing systems of equivalent performance.
• It has the feature of low nuisance sound outside the vehicle.
• It has impressive performance.

For optimal performance it has a characteristic rising response combined with acoustic filtering and other proprietary design features. For optimal performance the VR subwoofer has an acoustic rising response which is equalised electrically. The acoustic rising response amplifies out of band harmonics. The VR technology removes the out of band harmonics through acoustic filtering.
