But don't let its small size and low price fool you. With its 1000-watt digital amp, 8\" high-power long-throw active driver and a 9-5\/8\" by 11-3\/8\" quadratic planar back-wave-driven radiator, this baby rocks!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\"It may be small, but this compact subwoofer is a force to be reckoned with,\" notes Ed Shelley's \u003cem\u003ehomecinemachoice.com\u003c\/em\u003e review. \"I first encountered the ForceField3 as part of a complete GoldenEar system last year and it left quite an impression. With 1,000W on tap, the ForceField3 has over twice as much grunt as many of its mid-priced competitors.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eEngineered from the Ground Up\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eGoldenEar's award-winning ForceField subwoofers have been engineered from the ground up to combine subtle musical detail with earth-shaking high-impact power - all in attractive, compact enclosures which blend well into any environment. GoldenEar's engineering team has the benefit of over 20 years' of experience designing some of the world's best sounding, most highly reviewed, and bestselling powered subwoofers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eForemost in their design goals was the importance of not sacrificing sound quality in order to achieve unrealistic size. But just as key was the importance of compact size that did not make the subwoofers any larger than necessary in order to achieve uncompromising, state-of-the-art, sonic performance. You will instantly see and hear how well these seemingly conflicting goals were brilliantly both achieved with the combination of creative thinking and cutting-edge engineering prowess.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSophisticated Technology\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThe ForceFields all combine high-power forward-radiating ultra-long-throw sub-bass drivers coupled to downward-firing quadratic planar infrasonic radiators. This brings together the superior transient response and detail of moderately sized active drivers with the subsonic capability and extraordinary room-filling coupling of large diaphragm radiators.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eIn fact, the radiators, in combination with the slot-loading to the floor, approximate the near perfect impedance match to the air of a well-tuned transmission line. This combination is also very flexible in terms of room-placement requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eUnique High-Power DSP-Controlled Amplifier\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThe engineering team spent countless hours developing a unique high-power, DSP controlled class D digital amplifier. This sophisticated amp has a Programmable Logic Device (PLD) based state machine with a nearly instantaneous 278 nano-second update time, to perfectly manage a myriad of functions, including soft-clipping, DC offset control, output-stage anti-saturation protection, and discrete multi-band limiting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThe DSP control also allows for very precise equalization. In addition, intrinsic THD is extremely low, so very little negative feedback is required, thus ensuring optimum transient performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eUniquely Shaped Performance-Enhancing Cabinet\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eFinally, a unique cabinet shape was chosen, both for its undeniable aesthetic appeal, as well as its performance enhancing attributes. The non-parallel cabinet walls dramatically cut down and help control internal reflections, as well as stiffen the cabinet structure itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThe end result is stunning impact, superbly musical bass articulation and breathtaking infrasonic capabilities that can powerfully pressurize a room in a way that leaves listeners breathless. The unique achievement of the ForceFields means they can bring the power of T Rex into your living room, as well as the musical subtlety of YoYo Ma.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Golden Ear","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":45983077335213,"sku":"NEW-GEFF3-BLK","price":599.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Demo","offer_id":45983077367981,"sku":"DEMO-GEFF3-BLK","price":599.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0750\/3708\/1773\/files\/GEFF3_01_2024__72189.1730751010.1280.1280_2b82ecbe-df6a-4b53-b53a-2f0645cd8240.jpg?v=1778151734","url":"https:\/\/www.audioadvisor.com\/products\/goldenear-forcefield-3-8-inch-compact-subwoofer-matte-black","provider":"Audio Advisor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
