\nVLFC<\/a>,<\/strong> already available on the market, is a large-scale loudspeaker system specifically engineered to create visceral impact at frequencies below the threshold of hearing. By focusing energy into a narrow band between 30 Hz<\/strong> and 13 Hz, VLFC<\/a><\/strong> is uniquely capable of generating extreme variations in air pressure that are sensed by the entire body as compression waves while those frequencies at the upper end of its range are perceived as thunderous bass sound.
\nThe VLFC<\/strong><\/a> is a self-powered system housing two<\/strong> low resonant frequency 18-inch cone drivers.<\/strong> The on-board power is supplied by a two-channel Class AB\/H bridged amplifier<\/strong> with complementary MOSFET output<\/strong> stages for high peak power. The VLFC<\/strong><\/a> shares the same exterior footprint as Meyer Sound<\/strong><\/a>\u2019s 1100-LFC<\/strong><\/a> low frequency control element, allowing use of the same rigging grids and caster frames. When the VLFC<\/strong><\/a> is paired with the 1100-LFC<\/strong><\/a>, the combination produces linear, coherent bass response from 13 Hz<\/strong> to 100 Hz.<\/strong>
\nApplications for the VLFC<\/strong><\/a> include adding very low frequency, visceral impact to hard rock and electronic dance music in concerts, festivals and clubs. The VLFC<\/strong><\/a> also adds impact to special effects in cinemas, themed spectacles, and theme park attractions. A limited early production run of VLFC<\/strong><\/a> elements was supplied for Metallica<\/strong>\u2019s ongoing Worldwired tour<\/strong>, where as many as 42 VLFC<\/a> cabinets<\/strong> created a forceful impact that was felt throughout large stadiums.
\n\u201cIn fact\u201d \u2013 explains Pablo Espinosa, Meyer Sound<\/a>\u2019s Vice President of Research and Development and chief loudspeaker designer<\/strong> \u2013 \u201cthe effect of the new VLFC<\/strong><\/a> is truly a chest-slamming experience. And because the VLFC<\/strong><\/a>\u2019s very long wavelengths have lesser impact on hearing, you can add bone-rattling power to your performance without running afoul of noise limits.\u201d
