HEDD Bass 12 12-inch 700-watt Powered Subwoofer

The HEDD Bass 12 is marketed as “the biggest 12-inch subwoofer on the market.” This powered sub is the ideal complement to HEDD’s Type 20 MK2 and Type 30 MK2 studio monitors, adding weight and a club-ready vibe to your mixing experience—just what you need to impress your clients. When used with satellite studio monitors, HEDD’s Group Delay Compensation (GDC) tool fixes group delay issues. SHARC-powered DSP achieves ruler-flat phase alignment, which makes sure that low- and high-frequency soundwaves arrive at the right time. Furthermore, HEDD’s CoP technology enables you to use the Bass 12 in either closed- or open-port mode for optimal low-end precision or response. You receive an adjustable ± 2m satellite offset, a variable crossover, and an Extend mode for deeper low-frequency extension. If you want an active studio subwoofer with massive sound and razor-sharp performance, the HEDD Bass 12 is the best alternative available.

SHARC-powered HEDD Linearizer Processing

The Bass 12 features fully integrated HEDD linearizer processing. This SHARC-powered DSP eliminates time-related delays with a non-perceptible reaction time of 30 ms. This ensures that low- and high-frequency soundwaves reach your ears at the exact appropriate time. In addition, you may synchronize the Bass 12’s phase correction with a HEDD-powered studio monitor to adjust for group delay in a satellite-sub setup. Do you want to hear your mix without DSP? Not an issue. The Bass 12’s HEDD linearizer processing is readily turned off.

Powerful Group Delay Compensation

While HEDD’s linearizer processing includes phase correction, which can be applied to both subwoofers and satellite studio monitors, the Bass 12 goes a step further by addressing group delay concerns with the company’s Group Delay Compensation (GDC) tool. GDC delivers hyper-accurate low-end performance and a finely integrated listening experience.

Closed or ported, the decision is yours.

The Bass 12 uses a ported bass design, as do most studio subwoofers, to generate a massive low-end response and remarkable low-frequency extension. However, sometimes you prefer accurate bass over enormous bass. That’s why the Bass 12 features HEDD’s Closed or Ported (CoP) technology. This groundbreaking function lets you select between two separate sounds. To achieve optimal accuracy, put the provided foam plug into the speaker’s bass port and select closed mode. Remove the foam plug and switch to ported mode for a loud, booming bass.
