About Earthquake Sound Corporation
For over 28 years, Earthquake Sound has been producing a variety of high quality audio products that have impressed audiophile communities around the world. It all started in 1984 when Joseph Sahyoun, a music freak and
Aerospace Engineer unhappy with the existing loud speaker technology and performance, decided to put his advance engineering knowledge to use. He pushed technological boundaries to the limit to create the kind of subwoofer he could live with. Earthquake quickly created a name for itself in the car audio industry and became well known for its powerful subwoofers and amplifiers. In 1997, using his existing expertise in the audio industry, Joseph
Sahyoun expanded his company to home audio production.
Earthquake Sound has since evolved into a leader in the home audio industry, producing not only subwoofers and amplifiers but surround speakers and tactile transducers as well. Engineered by audiophiles for audiophiles,
Earthquake Sound audio products are meticulously crafted to reproduce each and every single note perfectly, bringing your home theater experience to life. With true dedication and full attention to details, Earthquake Sound engineers continuously develop new and better products to meet customers’ needs and go beyond their expectations.
From mobile audio to prosound and home audio, Earthquake Sound has been selected as the winner of many prestigious awards based on sound quality, performance, value and features. CEA and numerous publications have awarded Earthquake Sound with over a dozen design and engineering awards. Additionally, Earthquake Sound has been granted many design patents by the USPO for revolutionary audio designs that have changed the sound of the audio industry.
Headquartered in a 60,000 square foot facility in Hayward, California USA, Earthquake Sound currently exports to over 60 countries worldwide. In 2010, Earthquake Sound expanded its export operations by opening a European warehouse in Denmark. This accomplishment was recognized by the US Department of Commerce who honored
Earthquake Sound with an Export Achievement award at the 2011 Consumer Electronic Show. Just recently, the US
Department of Commerce presented Earthquake Sound with another Export Achievement award for expanding its export operations in China.

The MiniMe P10
V2
/P12
V2 a m p l i f i e r u t i l i z e s t h e advanced class “D” circuitry with over 90% efficiency, allowing it to continuously perform without getting hot.
The 600-Watt peak power amplifier is fully equipped with IR input, room tuning adjustments, 0 - 180° phase switch, low level RCA inputs & outputs, auto signal sensing, as well as high level speaker inputs and outputs.
Premium Long Throw Drivers
The active driver installed in every MiniMe P10
V2
/P12
V2
is specifically designed for accurate reproduction of bass and sub-bass frequencies.
Built with TCT (Turbine Cooled
Tr a n s d u c e r ) Te c h n o l o g y, stitched tensile leads, antiwobble cone construction and reinforced dust cap, the MiniMe P10
V2
/P12
V2
driver effortlessly produces phenomenal bass with extremely low distortion while staying cool the entire time.
Mass Tuned SLAPS (Symetrically
Loaded Audio Passive System)
Earthquake’s own patented
SLAPS passive radiator t e c h n o l o g y d r a m a t i c a l l y increases the subwoofer’s efficiency and capability for u l t r a l o w f r e q u e n c y reproduction. The unique design of the SLAPS employs dual (identical) suspensions, allowing the passive driver to move the same amount of air in either direction. Coupled with the active driver, the SLAPS enables the sub to deliver louder bass without using more power from the amplifier.
Luxurious Piano Gloss Cabinet
The deep luxurious black piano lacquer begins with a thorough sanding and priming, followed by multiple applications of black lacquer with additional fine sanding between each layer, and finished with a smooth, high gloss clear coat.

(12) 0-180° Phase Adjustment
This 0° - 180° switch allows user to synchronize the subwoofer to obtain better and more precise bass response.
(13) AC Power with Built-in Fuse
This AC line connector is fused to protect the subwoofer from unwanted power surges. Be sure to use the proper fuse rating when replacing the fuse:
110-120V~60Hz: ø5x20mm, T6.3AL/250V
220-240V~50Hz: ø5x20mm, T3.15AL/250V
To access the fuse compartment, simply unplug the subwoofer from any power source, place a flat-head screw driver in the small notch and pry it open as illustrated.

Placing Your Subwoofer(s)
You often hear the term “subwoofers are nondirectional.” This is not true. It is harder to choose subwoofer placement when low frequencies are crossed. The wider the room, the more directional the subwoofer. The easiest solution is to use two (2) subwoofers, feed a mono signal to both and place them in the front, one on the left and another on the right.
While having two (2) subs is better than one, the
MONO signal that drives those subwoofers keeps them from projecting the three dimensional images in the sub-harmonics. Using two (2) subwoofers allows you to cross the subs up to 150Hz sound quality, imaging and staging. In some applications, you might have small front speakers or planar speakers. The two-front-subwoofer system is an excellent solution to planar speakers’ low frequency response early roll off from 150Hz on down. When placing these subwoofers in a close proximity to the stereo satellite, the subs will enhance low frequency extension. It will be better to have a stereo subwoofer to help in the lower bass notes and their placement.
Suppose you have only one (1) subwoofer in the room and it is placed on the right side of the room. If a bass guitar player was standing on the left side of the stage and played an EE note (42Hz), then the sub will also respond to that from the right side of the room and completely destroy the stage.
You will see illustrations showing the two (2) different suggested setups. In each of them, note the breakaway and the image separation represented by the black and gray arrows.
The black arrows represent the subharmonic frequencies.
The gray arrows represent the lows, mids and highs as they follow the action.
The best response is achieved when the subharmonic frequencies are dynamically synchronized with the rest of the audio system, the black and gray arrows are identical
Single Subwoofer Setup
This is a GOOD setup. The subharmonic frequencies
(black arrow) always move towards the sub in the single sub setup while the lows, mids and highs (gray arrow) follow the action.
Placing the subwoofer in the corner of the room will produce a more boomy effect, often preferred for movies and sound tracks. For a music application, place the subwoofer as shown above or against the front wall, about a third of the room width.
Dual Subwoofer Setup with Mono
Signal
This is a BETTER setup. In a dual subwoofer setup, the subharmonic frequencies (black arrow) always move towards the middle of the room while the lows, mids and highs follow the action (gray arrow).
Notice the breakaway and image separation is less in this setup than the single subwoofer setup.
Specifications are subject to change without notice.

Room Tuning Your Subwoofer(s)
The room tuning EQ on the MiniMe P10
V2
/P12
V2 is a cut EQ whose cut frequency and level are variables that can be adjusted to better suit the room.
There are two main methods for adjusting the level, crossover frequency and phase of the Earthquake
MiniMe P10
V2
/P12
V2 to match a system:
By listening and making adjustments to suit your preference.
By measuring the output and adjusting for a flat frequency response.
Satisfactory results can be achieved if you make the adjustments based simply on listening. This is
Earthquake’s preferred method as it allows the system to be voiced based on what sounds the best, whereas laboratory-flat frequency response can often be clinical and less than exciting.
The following procedures are for those who prefer a more methodical and scientific approach. You will need a test CD with low-frequency warble tones and an SPL meter/spectrum analyzer.
Step 1.
Place the subwoofer at the preferred location in the room.
Step 2.
Place a spectrum analyzer or the SPL meter on the theater seat/sofa, at the listener’s ear level.
Step 3.
Send 20Hz - 70Hz tones with 5Hz increments through the front (left and right) speakers and subwoofer.
Step 4.
Document the peak SPL and frequency presented by the spectrum analyzer or SPL meter.
Step 5.
Set the ROOM TUNING FREQ to the peak frequency.
Step 6.
Set the ROOM TUNING LEVEL to achieve a flattened response.
Use the following charts to record more desirable data from test results.
