Velodyne Acoustics has introduced an update to its subwoofer lineup – now the Velodyne Deep Blue, Velodyne Impact X, Velodyne VI-Q series and the Velodyne MiniVee X, Velodyne MicroVee X models are available for purchase in a stylish snow-white finish.
Previously, subwoofers were discreetly integrated into the room – that’s why the dominant color of the LF module cases for decades was black. However, the design of typical apartments and halls has changed a lot during this time. Now, Velodyne Acoustics suggests moving away from the canons – because white symbolizes lightness and architectural restraint. In the interior, white products look unobtrusive and elegant, especially in modern houses with light rooms.
White subwoofers, therefore, will not look like a black spot, but will elegantly complement the interior and become part of the modern concept of living space. A number of models of active subwoofers Velodyne Acoustics are offered, including in white color – and in different power classes. These are models of the Velodyne Deep Blue series, Velodyne Impact X, Velodyne MiniVee X and Velodyne MicroVee X, as well as Velodyne VI-Q subwoofers. The new white finish does not change the technical characteristics of the subwoofers, the recommended retail prices for Velodyne Acoustics subwoofers in white also remain unchanged.
