GoldenEar ForceField 4: A force to be reckoned with

The GoldenEar ForceField 4 is compact yet mighty subwoofer whose deep-bass performance will blow you away.

• The same 1200-watt amplifier developed for the Triton Two tower
• 10-inch sub-bass driver coupled to a downward-firing 11 x 13.9-inch quadratic planar infrasonic radiator
• Amplifier design employs state‐of‐the‐art DSP control
• PLD (Programmable Logic Device) based state machine with an ultra‐fast update time
• Direct‐coupled low level (mono) input
• Speaker‐level inputs with high‐passed speaker‐level outputs
• Optional wireless kit

The ForceField 4 subwoofer’s unique and attractive cabinet shape, with its non-parallel cabinet walls (the top is narrower than the bottom when viewed from the front), helps it achieve extraordinarily deep and tuneful bass that is ideal for both music and movies.

The compact ForceField 4 incorporates the same 1200-watt digital amp developed for GodlenEar’s flagship Triton Two tower speaker. It drives a front-mounted high-power ultra-long-throw 10-inch sub-bass driver coupled to a downward-firing 11 x 13.9-inch quadratic planar infrasonic radiator.

The cutting-edge amplifier design employs state-of-the-art DSP control for frequency shaping so the subs produce accurate, consistent and musical bass performance. It also has a PLD (Programmable Logic Device) based state machine with an ultra-fast update time to manage a myriad of functions including soft-clipping, DC offset control, output-stage anti-saturation protection and discrete multi-band limiting. Intrinsic circuit distortion is an order of magnitude less than on prior existing design technologies, allowing a reduction in the amount of negative feedback required to achieve low distortion and yielding excellent stability and transient response.

ForceField 4 includes a direct-coupled low level (mono) input as well as speaker-level inputs with high-passed speaker-level outputs. It’s also wireless-ready to accept an optional wireless kit. Comes in a matte black finish.

“A legend among legends”

— Home Theater on GoldenEar co-founder Sandy Gross

With hundreds of years of combined experience, GoldenEar’s founders and engineering team have created many of the world’s best-sounding and best-selling loudspeakers. Sandy Gross, for instance, was one of the founders was one of the founders of two legendary audio companies. At ListenUp, we thought so much of his capabilities that we agreed to carry this new brand before we even heard it! When we finally did hear these phenomenal speakers, we thought to ourselves, “Wow! Sandy’s got another winner.” And we’re not alone in that opinion… Doug Schneider of SoundStage.com calls GoldenEar “The next loudspeaker superpower.”
