The Velodyne MiniVee X is an active subwoofer featuring an eight-inch active speaker complemented by a passive driver of the same size. Utilizing a force-cancelling design, both drivers work to minimize unwanted housing vibrations.
The active chassis is equipped with a double-vented 2-inch voice coil boasting a four-layer winding, designed to deliver powerful and precise diaphragm movement.
The amplifier stage delivers an impressive output of 350 watts RMS and boasts excellent connectivity options. The MiniVee X also features automatic room correction, which can be conveniently accessed through the new Velodyne Acoustics Auto-EQ app. The package includes a properly matched calibration microphone for seamless setup.
