Powerful Simplicity
Vestra continues the mantle of confident design simplicity. The careful combination of high-quality materials, thoughtful design, and user-friendly features embodies the ethos, creating a subwoofer that is both visually refined and sonically powerful.
Accurate and responsive bass drivers
The Vestra subwoofers feature high-excursion drivers with triple suspension (W12/W15) for precise bass control. Long copper voice coils, enhanced venting, and FEA-optimised steel components minimise distortion and heat. A custom surround maximises cone area and maintains control. The result: deep, agile, and powerful bass.
C-CAM for pistonic-performance
C-CAM is a lightweight yet incredibly rigid cone that minimises flexing, allowing for a faster response time and improved accuracy. Fronting a powerful motor system, the Vestra C-CAM bass driver delivers exceptional clarity and low distortion, allowing for the accurate reproduction of deep, controlled bass.
Delivering optimal performance: the strength within
Vestra cabinets combine a sleek minimalist design with acoustic precision. Rigid construction minimises resonance for clean, powerful bass. Vestra W10 and W12 feature sealed enclosures for flexible placement, while the Vestra W15’s ported design delivers deeper, harder-hitting lows. Finished in AV-friendly matte black or white finishes, Vestra is durable, stylish, and sonically impressive.
Class-D Amplification: Power, precision and efficiency
Behind the high-linear C-CAM driver, are powerful Class-D amplifiers (250W–500W) deliver optimised, pistonic performance with high efficiency and low distortion at any volume.
Vestra, ideal for multi-subwoofer AV Systems
Vestra subwoofers are perfect for multi-sub AV systems, delivering balanced, immersive sound with smooth, room-filling bass and no dead spots. Compact and stylish with DSP tuning, they blend easily into any space, creating a cinematic experience with deep, powerful bass, ideal for movies, music, and games.
