For subwoofers
The MVi series includes two monoblocks without DSP, 600 and 1000 W, optimised for subwoofer use. They sit beside the stereo and system models of the same series when a dedicated bass channel is needed. Their frequency response runs from 12 Hz to 500 Hz.
NexD2 technology
The fast-switching NexD2 stage synchronises the power supply with the output channels of the amplifier: fidelity is at its highest, noise and distortion are kept to a minimum, with high power and efficiency.
Inputs and protection
The differential-balanced inputs also accept the high-level signal from speaker outputs, with no converter, and reject noise. If temperature climbs too high, the protection circuit lowers power instead of shutting the amplifier down: music carries on even in the toughest conditions.
JLid and accessories
JLid is the proprietary JL Audio protocol for control and communication of settings between MVi amplifiers and JLid accessories, which are optional. With the MVi-HUB, sold separately, several amplifiers show up on a network in a single TüN session and are commanded from one optional digital controller.
Installation
It measures 285 x 176 mm in plan and 52 mm in height, at 2.27 kg. It runs on 10 to 15 V DC; the indicated fuse is 50 A, AFS, AGU or MaxiFuse type, and the power and ground cable 4 AWG copper at least. The series goes beyond international standards for salt and UV exposure.
