Bag End PQUARTZ-R
Powered 4 x 18" Subwoofer Speaker, Touring / Road Model

PQUARTZ-R

The PQUARTZ-I is a very high output concert INFRA™ subwoofer system designed to minimize the space required to obtain extremely high level and high fidelity Extended low frequency output. The PQUARTZ-I provides perfectly flat response down to 8 Hertz when used in conjunction with the 8 Hertz Integrator or down to 18 Hertz when used with the INFRA-M Integrator. The PQUARTZ-R is powered by two Minima One amplifiers.

The Minima One is available in most Bag End loudspeaker models providing an on board powered system option. Each powered loudspeakers system is individually adjusted for the correct maximum power and protection settings insuring a reliable high performance powered loudspeaker solution.

The Minima One amplifier is both a hi fidelity and a high efficiency amplifier. The Minima One is more than 80% efficient providing more power to the loudspeaker and creating less heat in the amplifier. Incorporating patented technology, the comparison circuit of the Minima One corrects each individual cycle to drive error to zero at the end of every cycle. On average every 4 microseconds the one cycle modulator transforms and amplifies the input signal into the ideal natural pulse width modulation. Switching at 250kHz with the single cycle error correction insures extremely low distortion and high reliability.

The power factor corrected AC power input automatically and continuously adapts to any voltage between 88 and 275 volts. The Minima one is convenient to power and stable to use on any power grid in the world.
