Just when we thought bass couldn't get any better, Velodyne drops the new SPL-X series, and it's got the audiophile community buzzing. These subwoofers aren't just about shaking the room—they're about delivering precision and depth that's been missing in our setups.

The SPL-X series comes in four sizes: 10, 12, 15, and a massive 18 inches. Each model is powered appropriately, starting from 1000W RMS for the 10-inch version, up to a staggering 1800W RMS for the 18-inch beast. That's some serious power, ensuring that whether you're watching a movie or spinning your favorite vinyl, the low-end frequencies are felt as much as they're heard.

What's really exciting is the advanced DSP system they've incorporated. Velodyne is known for their digital signal processing, but this time they've upped the game. The subs are equipped with a new DSP platform, previously seen in their MiniVee X and SC1500 models, but further enhanced for precision control.

The drivers feature carbon fiber cones, which we all know offer a great combination of rigidity and lightness. Paired with four-layer, 102mm voice coils and triple-vented magnet systems, these subs are built to handle high power levels without distortion. The enclosures are no joke either—built from 38mm thick panels and internally braced to minimize resonance, ensuring that all you hear is pure, unadulterated bass.

Connectivity is versatile, with both RCA and XLR inputs and outputs. This means integrating the SPL-X into your existing setup should be a breeze, whether you're running a traditional stereo system or a full-blown home theater.

One of the standout features is the new AutoEQ mobile app. This isn't just another control app; it allows for automatic room calibration using the included microphone. Adjusting settings like crossover frequencies, subsonic filters, power modes, delay, and even a night mode can all be done right from your phone. It's about time we had this level of control without needing a degree in audio engineering.

Velodyne showcased the SPL-X series at ISE 2025 in Barcelona, and while pricing hasn't been announced yet, given the specs, these subs are likely to be a solid investment for those serious about their sound. Alongside the SPL-X, Velodyne also introduced new products like the SC1500 DSP subwoofer amplifier, new in-wall subwoofers, and even special editions of the MiniVee X.

In short, if you're looking to upgrade your low end and want a subwoofer that combines raw power with refined control, the Velodyne SPL-X series is definitely worth keeping an eye on.
