{"product_id":"dalisube12fwhite","title":"DALI Sub E-12 F Active Subwoofer, White (Each)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe DALI Sub E-12 F is an active 12-inch subwoofer from Denmark with a downfiring bass reflex port and a built-in 170-watt Class D amplifier, built as the deep-bass foundation for stereo and home cinema systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn White Satin Matte it's the lighter twin – in a room with white walls or bright decor, it barely stands out, even though a 12-inch driver sits under the front grille. Its bare aluminium cone is the core of the concept: stiff, light and without a dust cap, so it moves like a piston and settles again immediately. This fast attack and decay is what separates a good deep-bass driver from one that just booms. The aluminium base keeps the cabinet 30 mm above the floor, calms the airflow at the downfiring port and lets you place it right up close to the wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the Sub E-12 F?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause of its speed. Plenty of subwoofers in this class deliver punch, yet many lag a heartbeat behind the rest of the music – the E-12 F stays dry and precise. 170 watts continuous power and 220 watts peak from the Class D amplifier leave headroom even during forceful film scenes, while a built-in limiter protects the driver from overload. Whether AV receiver or classic stereo amplifier: via LFE or line, there's always a way in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA compact active subwoofer in a solid MDF cabinet in White Satin Matte, with a magnetically held front grille included – remove it and the bare aluminium cone comes into view. You adjust level, phase and upper crossover frequency on the back, signal detection handles switching on and off. We're happy to go through how to integrate it into your existing system with you at HD Zürisee in Wädenswil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is the Sub E-12 F suited to?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlain talk: if you're after soft, sprawling bass, look elsewhere – the E-12 F is bred for control, not effect. In a noise-sensitive flat, 112 dB maximum level is also more of a statement to the neighbours than a good idea. In medium-sized living spaces, though, as a foundation for bookshelf speakers or slim floorstanding speakers, it delivers exactly what it was built for: clean 28 Hz with no waffle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe E-12 F does what a good subwoofer should: be heard without being noticed. It's compact enough for the living room, fast enough for music and has enough reserve for movie night. In White Satin Matte it's the choice for bright rooms where a black block would look out of place. If you think a sub is only for home cinema, you've never really heard a double bass – that's worth putting right.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical data\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e active subwoofer, bass reflex (downfiring port)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWoofer:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 × 12 inch, aluminium long-throw (300 mm cone), without dust cap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency range:\u003c\/strong\u003e 28 – 190 Hz (±3 dB)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBass reflex tuning:\u003c\/strong\u003e 36 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum SPL:\u003c\/strong\u003e 112 dB (1 m)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAmplifier:\u003c\/strong\u003e Class D, 170 W RMS (continuous) \/ 220 W (max.)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCrossover frequency:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40 – 120 Hz, continuously adjustable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e LFE (mono, RCA) + line\/RCA stereo (low-pass filtered)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutputs \/ high-level input:\u003c\/strong\u003e not available\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInput impedance:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25 kΩ\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eControls:\u003c\/strong\u003e volume, phase (0°\/180°), upper crossover frequency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAuto standby:\u003c\/strong\u003e switches on and off via signal detection, can be disabled on the unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCabinet:\u003c\/strong\u003e solid MDF, aluminium base with spikes (30 mm floor clearance)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (W×H×D):\u003c\/strong\u003e 340 × 370 × 380 mm (with base)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14.7 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMax. power consumption:\u003c\/strong\u003e 250 W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e White Satin Matte (model range also in Black Ash)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's included:\u003c\/strong\u003e subwoofer, front grille, rubber feet, M6 spikes, power cable, manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs one Sub E-12 F enough for my living room?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor small to medium-sized living spaces, one E-12 F is generally plenty. Only in very large rooms or a fully built-out home cinema does a single 12-inch driver reach its limit, and then the larger Sub K-14 F is the better choice. Tell us your room size, and we'll work out where you stand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I connect the Sub E-12 F to my amplifier?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe simplest way is via RCA cable from your AV receiver's subwoofer output to the LFE input. If your stereo amplifier has no sub output, use the low-pass-filtered line inputs instead. Then match level, phase and crossover frequency to your main speakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the white finish yellow over time?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe White Satin Matte surface is a matte finish on solid MDF and noticeably less sensitive than a high-gloss finish, where every fingerprint shows. Dry dusting is enough; steer clear of aggressive cleaners. No speaker likes constant direct sun anyway – place it somewhere shadier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the Sub E-12 F have a high-level input?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo, the E-12 F has no speaker terminals. It's connected exclusively via RCA: either through the LFE mono input or the two low-pass-filtered line inputs with 25 kiloohm input impedance. We're happy to tell you which variant is right for your amplifier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat speaks in favour of buying the Sub E-12 F from HD Zürisee?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA subwoofer lives and dies by its integration: level, phase, crossover frequency and placement need to fit together, or it just booms.
