Ich trenne mich von meinem Velodyne Digital Drive DD-12, der als absoluter Maßstab für präzise Basswiedergabe in High-End-Anlagen gilt. Dieser Subwoofer bietet eine beeindruckende Kontrolle und Leistung sowohl für anspruchsvolle HiFi-Setups als auch für Heimkino-Installationen.
- Modell: Velodyne Digital Drive DD-12
- Verstärkung: Klasse D
- Dynamische Leistung: 3000 W
- RMS-Leistung: 1250 W
- Frequenzgang: 17 Hz bis 120 Hz (±3 dB)
- Gehäuse: Hochglanzschwarze Oberfläche
Das Gerät zeichnet sich durch seine außergewöhnliche Präzision und den tiefen Frequenzbereich aus, der bis zu 10,2 Hz reicht. Die Verarbeitung ist sehr hochwertig und das Gehäuse befindet sich in einem gepflegten Zustand. Er liefert eine enorme Kraft, die für diese kompakte Bauweise bemerkenswert ist.
Falls du weitere Informationen zu diesem Kraftpaket benötigst, schreib mir gerne eine Nachricht.
This is a fair ask, with €500 sitting above the €400 median but comfortably below the €702 75th percentile for comparable used examples. It is not a bargain at this level, but it remains sensible money for a correctly identified, fully working DD-12.
The attraction is serious performance: a sealed 12-inch design, exceptionally powerful amplification, low-distortion servo control, and unusually capable built-in DSP for measuring and correcting room response. The supplied microphone and remote materially improve its usefulness, so confirm both are included and test the display, controls, amplifier, driver, and room-EQ functions before buying. At €500, a clean, operational example with its accessories is worth pursuing; missing control hardware or any amplifier fault should justify negotiating down.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Velodyne Acoustics traces its origins to 1983, when founder David Hall launched the brand in Silicon Valley, the epicenter of high-tech innovation. Hall, an engineer with a vision for revolutionizing home audio, introduced the groundbreaking ULD-18 subwoofer featuring a patented accelerometer-based High Gain Servo system. This technology delivered unprecedented control over low-frequency reproduction, setting a new standard for bass performance in music and movies and establishing Velodyne as a pioneer in powered subwoofers.
The brand's product focus remains laser-sharp on subwoofers, with over 200 patents driving innovations like the world's first DSP-controlled model in 2003. Velodyne specializes in high-quality active subwoofers optimized for hi-fi stereo systems and home cinema, emphasizing deep, distortion-free bass that integrates seamlessly into demanding setups. While not diversifying into speakers, amplifiers, or other categories, their designs prioritize technical precision for audiophiles seeking foundational low-end authority.
Velodyne holds a commanding reputation as the world's leading subwoofer manufacturer for over 40 years, positioned firmly in the high-end market for discerning hi-fi and custom install buyers. Acquired by Germany's Audio Reference in 2019 and now exclusively imported in the U.S. by Origin Acoustics via custom channels, the brand continues to embody bass perfection, blending American engineering heritage with European stewardship.
