"LIKE NOTHING YOU'VE HEARD BEFORE"
Design Considerations
Most small near-field monitors lack bass reproduction in the 30–60 Hz range to avoid bass-midrange intermodulation, which degrades clarity and imaging. While common subwoofers use ported enclosures to enhance bass, they often result in overhanging, sustained, “boxy” bass transients.
ServoBass’s compact 8x8x8-inch near-field subwoofers address these issues with a relatively high crossover frequency of 100 or 200 Hz. Designed for desktop use with monitors placed on top, they ensure perfect wavefront alignment at ear level.
Using 4th-order Linkwitz-Riley crossovers, these subwoofers integrate seamlessly with near-field monitors, ensuring smooth phase transitions at the crossover frequency for a flat response. Motion Feedback (MFB) technology delivers tightly controlled bass transients, eliminating the drawbacks of resonant ported designs.
