Statement.

“It was masterfully

awe-inspiring”

– Darryl Wilkinson, Home Theater, March 2012

“If it weren’t just a subwoofer,

this would be a national treasure

– or a secret weapon.”

Home Theater magazine, Feb/March 2013

e challenges associated with designing high-output,
compact subwoofer systems can be daunting. In most
cases, designers sacrice low-frequency extension or output
capability in order to keep a design acceptably small.

e Fathom® subwoofers sacrice nothing, thanks to the
dynamic advantages of their proprietary JLAudio drivers.
ese exceptional woofers allow for a true subwoofer
passband and very high output, while keeping distortion
well below audible thresholds. To extract full benet
from the excursion envelope of its woofer design, each
Fathom® employs an uncommonly powerful switching
amplier with a large toroidal transformer and a patented
circuit, designed to enhance control and delity.

e compact design and conventional form factor
of the Fathoms apply beautifully to most home theater
applications, including built-in designs. Front-mounted
controls make them comfortable to set up and adjust,
while JLAudio’s powerful DSP engine and exclusive
Digital Automatic Room Optimization makes sure that
response is smooth, even in challenging rooms.

e f212v2’s dual driver conguration and ultra­powerful amplier deliver the highest performance
of the Fathom® lineup. is subwoofer is the top choice
for those seeking best-of-the-best performance in a
conventional form factor.
