Dynaudio Acoustics AIR BASE 24

AIR Base 24 is yet another new member of the AIR Series and it comes with a total frequency response of 20 Hz - 200 Hz. With the massive 700 watts of amplification, the AIR Base 24 gives the phrase "Pump up the volume" an entirely new meaning.

The subwoofer sports a new class D amp developed at the TC Electronic laboratories, which will assure "top of the line" quality and an abundance of power and reliability. On top of that the AIR Base 24 comes with 2 new 12" woofer that was specifically designed for low frequency reproduction and extremely tight impulse response.

Suited for medium and large sized rooms, this subwoofer works splendidly with the larger monitors of the AIR Series, delivering one of the most powerful integrated solutions for stereo and multichannel monitoring found anywhere.

The AIR Base 24 takes benefit of all the AIR Series features like Advanced Bass Management and 192 kHz support via dual wire integrating perfectly into demanding production environments like:
• Editing suites.
• Post Production facilities.
• Music recording and mixing studios.
