JL Audio CR-1 Active Subwoofer Crossover -


CR-1-CP.jpg

JL Audio's CR-1 Active Subwoofer Crossover is at Musicraft (Derby). Unfathomable sub bass by JL Audio.

The lucky few who have heard a well-integrated subwoofer in a great audio system know that the subwoofer's effect is profound. While everyone expects the bass extension to improve, most are shocked at the transformation that occurs in the main speakers. They simply open up, delivering improved dynamics, superior imaging and more low-level detail. Many describe it as the greatest speaker upgrade they have ever made.

Over the years, we have calibrated many subwoofer systems in highly critical listening environments, and we have been frustrated by the limitations of active crossovers we have worked with. Tired of struggling with "blunt instruments", we felt that a higher precision tool was needed, so we decided to build it and call it "CR-1". When properly set up, CR-1 creates a listening experience in which the subwoofers and main speakers become one, delivering a cohesive and compelling sonic presentation.

The CR-1 Active Subwoofer Crossover has been designed by audiophiles, for audiophiles. We believe it has no equal, offering a powerful combination of subwoofer/satellite tuning features, and a complete commitment to analogue signal purity.

JL Audio's CR-1 Active Subwoofer Crossover is at Musicraft (Derby). Unfathomable sub bass by JL Audio.

CR-1-SP.jpg

JL Audio's CR-1 Active Subwoofer Crossover is at Musicraft (Derby). Unfathomable sub bass by JL Audio.

CR-1 is built around two banks of precision Linkwitz-Riley low-pass and high-pass filters. Multiplying DACs with monolithic ratio matching are employed to adjust the analogue circuit's filter frequencies. This offers superior tracking behaviour and far more precise left/right channel balance, compared to conventional approaches.

Another of CR-1's unique and powerful features is a pair of rotary controls that control the damping of each filter bank. These damping controls dramatically improve the acoustic summing through the crossover region, by compensating for each speaker system's frequency response. At the center of the front panel, a single intuitive, rotary control permits quick adjustment of the relative level between the subwoofer(s) and main speakers.

To minimize distortion and noise, CR-1 employs top-grade component parts in its all-analogue audio circuitry: 1% precision resistors, JFET-input audio-grade op-amps, polypropylene film-and-foil capacitors and metallized-polypropylene film capacitors, to name just a few. We also build CR-1 right here in the U.S.A., to ensure top quality and dependability.

CR-1's input-output design makes it equally adaptable to studio, mastering suite or audiophile two-channel playback environments. To accommodate dual-mode systems, we also include a bypass feature that engages a pass-through from a dedicated "Managed Bass Input" on the rear panel, to the CR-1's subwoofer outputs. This makes it convenient to switch from two-channel to multi-channel mode.

CR-1 is the ultimate tool for subwoofer integration.

The world's best and the Formula 1 of subwoofers. Unfathomable sub bass by JL Audio -

x21_1106191.jpg


"The JL Audio Fathom is of reference quality and a benchmark by which all other subwoofers can be judged." - Robert Harley, The Absolute Sound

Mark on Hi-Fi reviews JL Audio's Fathom f110 v2 1100w subwoofer -

"it gave me effortless bass that blended seamlessly with my speakers. The sub just disappeared"

"You could go from intense room pressurisation I'm talking 30Hz, 25Hz, 20Hz where you have that room lock effect and then the next moment its vanished. Its just gone. No trace."

"its the way it delivers it. Its the authority. Is this really that small subwoofer creating that sound? That's the effect I got"

"to me I think the Fathom it represents just a very competent high quality single subwoofer that is also a bit of a luxury item but has performance that belies its size, adjustability, agility, transient response, athleticism in the bass all in a attractive package. It's really hard to beat that."

"this in my opinion is the best 10" single subwoofer on the market in this form factor and with that it is and will be my reference subwoofer going forward for the foreseeable future"

JL Audio CR-1 Active Subwoofer Crossover -

CR-1-CP.jpg

JL Audio's CR-1 Active Subwoofer Crossover is at Musicraft (Derby). Unfathomable sub bass by JL Audio.

The lucky few who have heard a well-integrated subwoofer in a great audio system know that the subwoofer's effect is profound. While everyone expects the bass extension to improve, most are shocked at the transformation that occurs in the main speakers. They simply open up, delivering improved dynamics, superior imaging and more low-level detail. Many describe it as the greatest speaker upgrade they have ever made.

Over the years, we have calibrated many subwoofer systems in highly critical listening environments, and we have been frustrated by the limitations of active crossovers we have worked with. Tired of struggling with "blunt instruments", we felt that a higher precision tool was needed, so we decided to build it and call it "CR-1". When properly set up, CR-1 creates a listening experience in which the subwoofers and main speakers become one, delivering a cohesive and compelling sonic presentation.

The CR-1 Active Subwoofer Crossover has been designed by audiophiles, for audiophiles. We believe it has no equal, offering a powerful combination of subwoofer/satellite tuning features, and a complete commitment to analogue signal purity.

CR-1-SP.jpg

JL Audio's CR-1 Active Subwoofer Crossover is at Musicraft (Derby). Unfathomable sub bass by JL Audio.

CR-1 is built around two banks of precision Linkwitz-Riley low-pass and high-pass filters. Multiplying DACs with monolithic ratio matching are employed to adjust the analogue circuit's filter frequencies. This offers superior tracking behaviour and far more precise left/right channel balance, compared to conventional approaches.

Another of CR-1's unique and powerful features is a pair of rotary controls that control the damping of each filter bank. These damping controls dramatically improve the acoustic summing through the crossover region, by compensating for each speaker system's frequency response. At the center of the front panel, a single intuitive, rotary control permits quick adjustment of the relative level between the subwoofer(s) and main speakers.

To minimize distortion and noise, CR-1 employs top-grade component parts in its all-analogue audio circuitry: 1% precision resistors, JFET-input audio-grade op-amps, polypropylene film-and-foil capacitors and metallized-polypropylene film capacitors, to name just a few. We also build CR-1 right here in the U.S.A., to ensure top quality and dependability.

CR-1's input-output design makes it equally adaptable to studio, mastering suite or audiophile two-channel playback environments. To accommodate dual-mode systems, we also include a bypass feature that engages a pass-through from a dedicated "Managed Bass Input" on the rear panel, to the CR-1's subwoofer outputs. This makes it convenient to switch from two-channel to multi-channel mode.

CR-1 is the ultimate tool for subwoofer integration.

"The JL Audio Fathom is of reference quality and a benchmark by which all other subwoofers can be judged." - Robert Harley, The Absolute Sound

Stereophile magazine reviews JL Audio's Fathom f212 v2 High Speed, Ultra High Power 3600w, Ultra High Definition powered subwoofer and JL Audio's CR-1 Active Subwoofer Crossover -

"The Fathom f212 v2's bass resolution was revelatory."

"The JL Audio combo of Fathom f212 v2 and CR-1 strongly benefited the quality, scale, detailing, and full power of orchestral music by enhancing the depth and width of the soundstage while revealing ambience cues. I felt and heard the jaw-tightening mass of the bass-drum strokes in the second section of Stravinsky's The Rite of Spring, performed by Eiji Oue and the Minnesota Orchestra (DVD with 24/96 WAV file, Reference RR-70 HDCD). They burst into my listening room as dense, concussive thuds with clean, defined leading edges."

"Reviewing the Fathom f212 v2's let me experience once again the thrill of discovering n exceptionally powerful new subwoofer. And JLA's CR-1 electronics crossover was a total surprise—I wondered where it had been all my life. It's beautifully made, sonically transparent, performs a critical role in the optimal setup of subwoofers, and has ergonomic bypass and mute functions that let you immediately hear the sonic improvements of good bass management. JL Audio's Fathom f212v2 subwoofer and CR-1 crossover are strongly recommended."

The world's best and the Formula 1 of subwoofers. Unfathomable sub bass by JL Audio -

x21_1106191.jpg


"The JL Audio Fathom is of reference quality and a benchmark by which all other subwoofers can be judged." - Robert Harley, The Absolute Sound

stereonet reviews JL Audio's Fathom f212 v2 High Speed, Ultra High Power 3600w, Ultra High Definition powered subwoofer -

"Like all JL Audio subwoofers, the unit abstains from using off the shelf components. Drivers, enclosures and electronics are all produced exclusively in-house. Every design begins with a purpose-built subwoofer driver, developed with both a specific cabinet size and power range in mind. The driver is then optimised for linear motor and suspension performance."

"As for the driver, the F212v2 uses the very same W7 platform used in JL's Fathom and Gotham subwoofers. No less than six US patents cover the W7, the company says, including the driver's OverRoll Surround. Unlike most drivers, which sit inside the frame, the F212v2's is located on the outer edge of the frame. This maximises the cone's radiating surface and provides greater excursion capability, says the manufacturer. It can place additional stress on the driver, so JL Audio's W cone design is used, which is architecturally reinforced to allow it to withstand rapid changes in speed and direction without distortion."

"The W7 drivers also employ JL Audio's patented Engineered Lead-Wire System. Typical high excursion woofer designs either weave the signal carrying leads into the spider (the lower part of a driver's suspension) or use flying leads. With the former, the leads are less elastic than the fabric material of the spider, causing asymmetric suspension behaviour; with the latter, the leads can mechanically whip and contact the cone or electrically short. The JL Audio approach features carefully engineered entry and exit support structures moulded into the terminals and the voice coil collar. The result, it's claimed, is flawless high-excursion lead-wire behaviour, with outstanding reliability."

"The frame itself is a rigid cast aluminium design coupled with a powerful magnet assembly. Such designs can generate excessive heat and even premature failure, the company adds. To alleviate this, the F212v2 uses JL's Elevated Frame Cooling system, which delivers cool air from slots above the top plate directly to the voice coil. The company's Cross-Drilled Pole Technology further enhances thermal dissipation and power handling. It's also said to improve overall sound quality and linearity by minimising dynamic parameter shifts and power compression."

The F212v2 has all the hallmarks you'd expect from a big subwoofer; impactful bass that's capable of digging deep into those lower frequencies. Built for rooms far bigger than mine, what's more surprising is the level of poise it possesses. The big Fathom could have easily overwhelmed my system. Instead, it served as an impressive extension to my own speakers. The consummate guest, the F212v2 understands the importance of keeping quiet just as much as it does speaking up. Top this off with first-class build and attention to detail, and JL Audio has produced another winner. If you've got a big room and want powerful yet articulate bass, the F212v2 may be just what you're looking for. Either way, it comes highly recommended.

While everyone expects the bass extension to improve, most are shocked at the transformation that occurs in the main speakers. They simply open up, delivering improved dynamics, superior imaging and more low-level detail. Many describe it as the greatest speaker upgrade they have ever made.

Over the years, we have calibrated many subwoofer systems in highly critical listening environments, and we have been frustrated by the limitations of active crossovers we have worked with. Tired of struggling with "blunt instruments", we felt that a higher precision tool was needed, so we decided to build it and call it "CR-1". When properly set up, CR-1 creates a listening experience in which the subwoofers and main speakers become one, delivering a cohesive and compelling sonic presentation.

The CR-1 Active Subwoofer Crossover has been designed by audiophiles, for audiophiles. We believe it has no equal, offering a powerful combination of subwoofer/satellite tuning features, and a complete commitment to analogue signal purity.

JL Audio's CR-1 Active Subwoofer Crossover is at Musicraft (Derby). Unfathomable sub bass by JL Audio.

CR-1
is built around two banks of precision Linkwitz-Riley low-pass and high-pass filters. Multiplying DACs with monolithic ratio matching are employed to adjust the analogue circuit's filter frequencies. This offers superior tracking behaviour and far more precise left/right channel balance, compared to conventional approaches.

Another of CR-1's unique and powerful features is a pair of rotary controls that control the damping of each filter bank. These damping controls dramatically improve the acoustic summing through the crossover region, by compensating for each speaker system's frequency response. At the center of the front panel, a single intuitive, rotary control permits quick adjustment of the relative level between the subwoofer(s) and main speakers.

To minimize distortion and noise, CR-1 employs top-grade component parts in its all-analogue audio circuitry: 1% precision resistors, JFET-input audio-grade op-amps, polypropylene film-and-foil capacitors and metallized-polypropylene film capacitors, to name just a few. We also build CR-1 right here in the U.S.A., to ensure top quality and dependability.

CR-1's input-output design makes it equally adaptable to studio, mastering suite or audiophile two-channel playback environments. To accommodate dual-mode systems, we also include a bypass feature that engages a pass-through from a dedicated "Managed Bass Input" on the rear panel, to the CR-1's subwoofer outputs. This makes it convenient to switch from two-channel to multi-channel mode.

CR-1 is the ultimate tool for subwoofer integration.

The world's best and the Formula 1 of subwoofers. Unfathomable sub bass by JL Audio -

x21_1106191.jpg


"The JL Audio Fathom is of reference quality and a benchmark by which all other subwoofers can be judged." - Robert Harley, The Absolute Sound

Stereophile reviews JL Audio's Fathom f110 v2 1100w subwoofer -

"JL Audio has been near the forefront of mobile and home subwoofers for decades. The f110v2 I'm reviewing here is the smallest model in their most advanced class."

"The JL f110v2 is a mighty mite of a sub, conceding little to its larger brothers. Placing it up front in a stereo system, crossed over to the main speakers and, most crucially, matched to the room with D.A.R.O., it can extend and clarify the bass response of your system. For a large room and/or a multichannel system, the f110v2 can be daisy-chained to additional f110v2s (or e110s) to increase the amount of bass power available, to reduce the influence of room modes and let D.A.R.O. finish the job."

JL Audio Fathom® v2 -

The challenges associated with designing high-output compact subwoofer systems can be quite daunting. In most cases, designers sacrifice low-frequency extension or output capability in order to keep the design small.

The Fathom® v2 subwoofers sacrifice nothing, thanks to the dynamic advantages of their proprietary JL Audio woofers. These exceptional drivers allow for a true subwoofer passband and very high output, while keeping distortion well below audible thresholds. To extract full benefit from the excursion envelope of its woofer, each Fathom® v2 employs an exceptionally powerful switching amplifier with a large toroidal transformer and a patented circuit designed to enhance control and fidelity. The audible benefits of these advantages are truly profound, and attested to by the most respected reviewers in the audio business.

Sound & Vision reviews JL Audio's Fathom f110 v2 1100w subwoofer -

"John Wick is a movie that gets better every time you watch it, especially on Ultra HD Blu-ray. Also, the plethora of gunshots and other bass-heavy effects in John Wick's Dolby Atmos soundtrack makes it particularly good for evaluating subwoofers. While my reference subs deliver more output below 20Hz in comparison, they don't measure up to the quality of bass I heard from the JL Audio drivers. These babies hit hard, really hard: Every impact from the f110v2 pair was precise and realistic, with a visceral quality that I felt in my chest."

"Some of my go-to music tracks for subwoofer testing include "Fidelity" by Regina Spektor, "Blank Space" by Taylor Swift, "Baby" by Justin Bieber, and "Sleep Like a Child" by Joss Stone. These songs each test a subwoofer in a slightly different way, and I was impressed with how the bass on each of them was conveyed by the f110v2s. I wrote down the following in my notes: tight, fast, clean, quick, deep— all the qualities you look for in a subwoofer."

"I was blown away by how well the f110v2 performed, and while $3,500 is undoubtedly expensive for an average consumer, you will get what you pay for if you can afford it. I was never left wanting when listening to even the most strenuous and LFE- intensive movie soundtracks, and I also heard plenty of bass heft and weight in the 20-50 Hz range when listening to music. Furthermore, the f110v2 might just be the fastest-sounding woofer I've ever encountered, and it was able to move a ton of air for such a small footprint. This experience has whetted my appetite to hear how JL Audio's larger offerings perform—I wouldn't object if the company sent me a pair of its F113s to test (hint-hint)! If you can afford the high cost of entry for one or, better yet, two f110v2 subwoofers, you won't be disappointed."


https://www.soundandvision.com/content/jl-audio-fathom-f110v2-subwoofer-review

Powered Subwoofer with 10-inch Subwoofer, 1100 watts

The Fathom f110 v2 is a heavyweight subwoofer capable of filling the most demanding rooms with powerful low-frequency output and reference-class sound quality. The combination of an ultra-long throw W7 13.5-inch driver and a very powerful switching amplifier give it the kind of output normally associated with far larger subwoofer systems.

Because it is built with the same driver and amplifier technology as our flagship Gotham® g213 v2 the Fathom f110 v2 delivers a tremendous level of sound quality. Low distortion, excellent dynamic capabilities and shockingly deep bass extension will allow you to experience all the excitement of the most demanding cinematic material, while also being able to reproduce all the nuance and texture of your most delicate musical material.

A complete set of signal processing features is easily accessible on the front surface of every Fathom. These include a highly flexible low-pass filter, variable phase, switchable polarity, e.l.f. trim and our powerful Digital Automatic Room Optimization (D.A.R.O.) system. A calibrated microphone is included for the D.A.R.O. system. Input connections are made via unbalanced RCA connections or balanced Neutrik® combo XLR/TRS jacks. Also included is an XLR output to connect a second Fathom® as a slave unit.
