The Basics of Bass
The relationship between any room and subwoofer
placement has a dramatic impact on performance.
Sub-position, room shape, and size always create
anomalies in the subwoofers frequency response that
can leave the bass sounding weak or almost
non-existent in the listening position. These
factors also influence the interaction between the
subwoofer and the main speakers.
The SMS-1 delivers an outboard processor, which
graphically displays room anomalies and provides the
necessary tools to allow for the optimization of the
subwoofer and your systems bass performance
regardless of the subwoofer placement.

Room Management Technology: Digital Drive
This latest Velodyne innovation allows the
subwoofer’s frequency response to be measured using
a calibrated microphone and viewed graphically on
any standard TV or monitor. The on board 8-band
digital graphic/parametric equalizer can be used to
optimize the subwoofer’s performance for any
position in any room.
The Digital Drive™ technology also offers complete
control over crossovers (subsonic and low-pass)
slopes, phase and polarity, which allows perfect
matching of the subwoofer to any speakers in the
room. All Digital Drive subwoofers come complete
with a microphone, cables and remote.

your room is included: a full feature remote
control, a high quality calibrated microphone, a mic
stand, the microphone cable and even the audio and
video cables. Even the needed test tones are self
generated. And, of course, the DSP processor reads
and measures all the parameters of the subwoofer
automatically.
The SMS-1
comes in a slim, one unit high configuration and can
be placed in a stack of equipment or rack-mounted
using the rack mount "ears". Simply install the
SMS-1
between the LFE output of your receiver or processor
