The Velodyne Impact Series subwoofers are stylish, affordable, high-output, low distortion subwoofers. They feature beautiful cabinets with black gloss lacquer trim that fit easily into your home, while their deep, defined bass brings your favorite movies and music to life - at very friendly prices.

Stylish even without the front grill

Down-firing Port Design Minimizes Distortion

Velodyne subwoofers have always been known for accuracy, producing a fraction of the distortion by competitive subwoofers. The Impact-10 down-firing port design maximizes bass performance and output, while limiting any noise cause by air moving the port, maintaining musical accuracy and dynamic impact.

Superior Quality Drivers

Impact drivers are designed with massive magnets and 2-inch copper-wound voice coils to precisely match their MDP Amplifiers, maximizing the bass output and the bass extension of each subwoofer. The Impact Series long-throw excursion and high power handling capabilities allow these subwoofers to play deeper and louder than similarly priced products. Powerful magnet structures and costly voice coils quickly dissipate excess heat for exceptional reliability.

Meshes seamlessly with existing speakers

The Impact-10 subwoofer uses a highly efficient MDP amplifier for floor-shaking bass. Unlike competitive IC amp designs, the dynamic MDP amplifier generates more reserve power to accurately reproduce the most critical bass information. The durable MDP amp is engineered with two unique protection circuits to insure long-term reliability. These "green" amplifiers are engineered to use less electricity to produce their amazing output.

Quality Features for a Great Price

The Impat Series of subwoofers come with a number of superior features to enhance your home theater. The MDP amplifiers have more dynamic headroom for high impact sound. Each subwoofer comes with high quality long-throw drivers and 2-inch copper-wound voice coils. The adjustable, superior quality crossover system matches with the Impact subwoofer with existing main speakers. The Phase adjustment allows the user to maximize bass blend with existing main speakers. The auto on/off setting conserves energy and the small, compact cabinets will fit in any room of your home.

5.0 out of 5 stars Velodyne + Bose = Smiles, May 24, 2009

By	M. Sammartino "I love sound" (harrisburg pa) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

My system consists of a Sony reciever STR-DG720. I have been using all Bose for quite some time. Front speakers goto the Bose subwoofer, then to the dual cubes. The rear speakers are a second set of Bose cubes. I am also using the Bose center channel. The system was sounding great, but lacking something. I have always heard, Bose, all highs no lows. Well sad to say this is true. The bose sub just doesnt cut it, for music or movies. So after much research, and talking to people in the business, i purchased this Impact 10 from amazon.
First, it came in 2 days, as the 2 day option i selected promised, but i just wanted to thank amazon for that, they always have been great with shipping. But now to the point. I have a 15x24 room, with a 61 inch LED engine DLP on the 1 side of the room, and now the Impact 10 in the corner beside the tv. This sub FILLS the room. Music comes to life, it fills in all the mids, and lows i was missing. I listen to everything, i have tested it with RnB, Rap, even Country and Drum n Bass. Everything now comes to life. As for movies, all i can say is WOW. Transformers, the first 10 minutes, amazing~!, Black Hawk Down, AMAZING.
I would deffinatly recomend this sub to anyone debating purchasing a 10" sub. I had the Polk 10, the JBL 10 and this in my cart over and over for 2 days. After talking to my buddy who resells audio equipment, he assured me, spending the little extra would be worth it. You can get the Polk 12 for less then this Velodyne 10, and i would say your wasting your time and money. This 10 does a great job!. A+ in my book. I hope this review helps atleast 1 person!
Im going back enjoying the new Stereo Setup!
* As i was previewing my post, the wife came down and said " Just so you know the house is shaking. * - thought id pass that along. ;P ( it is set to half volume )

Amazing sound and a great price sums it up. You won't go wrong with the Velodyne Impact 10. I teamed this sub with some Polk surrounds. Great for both movies and music.

I have this in my family room which is pretty good size (20'x 20') it's hooked up to a Denon avr-1910 with a 50" on da wall, let me just tell you,I was kinda on the fence about the size,(thought maybe the 12" might better fit the room)man was I wrong!! THIS THING HITS!! the 10" is perfect. I highly recommend! (the Denon too!)
