BASSBOSS Quad 21"Powered Subwoofer Kraken-MK3

THE KRAKEN-MK3 active subwoofer EMBRACES BOTH CRUSHING and INESCAPABLE SOUND & PHYSICALITY, BUT YOU’LL LOVE EVERY MINUTE OF IT! Intense BASS to 25Hz, Extreme Output, and a truly unique to market Footprint to Output Ratio are just some of the attributes of this monster of the deep.

The Kraken-MK3 offers the highest SPL on the market from a cabinet of its size, bar none. The output of 4-5 BASSBOSS double 18” subs has been packed into a cabinet roughly the size of just two.

Capable of almost brutal force, its hits are beyond palpable and just like the VS21 Subwoofer, it delivers excellent transient response and efficiency. The extended depth is aided by the large, vented volume, long excursion drivers, and prodigious power.

The all new MK3 series deliverers a suite of updates to the BASSBOSS line, improving clarity, performance, functionality, and safety via the new amplifiers, new DSP, custom control software, waterproof connectors, and more.

The updated amplifiers + DSP feature much more powerful 96 kHz processors with pristine sound quality and eight touch-of-a-button on board presets. This new state-of-the-art Class D amplifier provides a true 10000 Watts of RMS power. The amplifier is truly capable of delivering continuous power, ensuring that it isn’t the limiting factor on your quest for low frequency.

New “Control BASSBOSS” software provides additional computer-accessible presets, networked remote control, and future proofing remote DSP update capabilities as new BASSBOSS programming is developed and released. Each unit features dual ethernet ports with a built-in network switch for computer connectivity and cascading networking ability.

IP65 waterproof connectors have been added to provide peace-of-mind in unpredictable environments, and the MK3 line offers 90-250VAC global power compatibility for use all over the world.

The Kraken is a vented, short-horn, quad 21” bandpass subwoofer. The four drivers are loaded into a large acoustical volume that is tuned to a low frequency, and each is front-loaded onto a short horn. The vented enclosure section provides extended low frequency performance, and the horn section provides increased upper frequency sensitivity and improved transient response.

Meticulously constructed from 18mm Baltic Birch plywood, using dado joints, screws, extensive bracing, and advanced composite adhesives ensures years and years of trouble free service.

The enclosures feature UHMW Polyethylene sliders on all four sides, with corresponding recesses in the opposite sides to facilitate interlocking the boxes when stacked. The included transport carts also feature recesses that the feet lock into for secure transporting.

The amplifiers are capable of delivering 10,000W of continuous output. This ensures the amps are not the limiting factor in the output of low frequencies. Providing abundant power prevents overheating issues and virtually eliminates the damage that clipping a too-small amp can cause.

For larger events, several arraying options are available. Block arrays, side-by-side arrays and front/back Cardioid arrays can be deployed securely thanks to the interlocking feet. Presets are included in the DSP.

The Quad 21” Kraken Powered Subwoofer is designed for large scale festival touring systems; high-intensity nightclubs; art cars/carnival floats; and most importantly, BASS junkies who need the most body + face melting bass they can get.
