Product Description

The CVA-121 offers tremendous power output and exceptional low frequency response. The CVA-121 represents an industry milestone, as it is the first 1200-watt, 21-inch active subwoofer. At the heart of the CVA-121 is Cerwin-Vega's patented Stroker(tm)(r) Technology, which utilizes a three-spider driver design to optimize cone excursion and voice coil efficiency. Even the unique and striking cast aluminum grille doubles as a speaker heat sink, enabling these woofers to play longer and harder than anything else in their class.

Matched to this woofer is a powerful, built-in 1200-watt (2400 watt peak), high-efficiency Class H amplifier. The CVA-121 amplifier includes a unique onboard parametric equalizer that allows for added adjustment of gain, frequency and Q for maximized control and output. Integrating all these technologies allows the CVA-121 to deliver best in class low frequency output from a 21-inch speaker, but has a footprint more like an 18- inch box. The result of all this integration is power, upgradeability and improved portability.

The CVA-121 has a complete array of connection and mounting options. XLR and quarter inch connectors allow for balanced and unbalanced operation, accommodating a wide variety of cables and configurations. Master/Slave output connectors allow users to daisy chain multiple CVA subwoofers for precise control from the master unit. Finally, three top-mount 35 mm pole socket and matched mounting accessories, provide for flexible full range system configurations.

Protecting your investment is solid 18-mm hardwood construction, available in either durable Coolex polyurethane paint or high grade Carpet finish. Bottom line; the CVA-121 Active Subwoofer will provide you exceptional performance in a package much smaller and easier to use than you have ever have seen before.

Customer Reviews
4.5 out of 5 (10 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Great sub but HEAVY"
Overall: Great to add to your PA speakers so you don't have to push your main PA speakers so much. But, there is no getting around the fact that it takes 2 people to move this speaker. Even a body builder would have a problem picking this up solo due to its wide dimensions. Great sub tho, you will definitely turn heads! BREAK IN THE SPEAKER SLOWLY! USE FOR HIP HOP GENRES!
Style of Music: Hip-hop / Pop

1. We offer the most flexible payment plans in the biz

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!

5. Our customer service is consistently rated the best

zZounds customer service is consistently rated at or near the top on every major comparison shopping website--probably because we only hire experienced musicians with outstanding customer service skills to work in our call center, and they don't work on commission. To us, this is our most meaningful measure of success. zZounds has served over a million customers since 1996, and they're the only critics whose reviews really matter to us.
