Product Overview

Your new Rocco is a mature-engineered high-precision audio

component. It is the cornerstone of a design association

between worldwide audio professionals and acoustic

engineers. It has been specifically designed to provide an awe-

inspiring level of musical satisfaction in any domestic

environment. The Rocco brings a substantial improvement to

any audio or home theater system and gives its full potential

when associated with the finest ancillary equipment.

The Rocco is an innovative design integrating proprietary

components, state-of-the-art electronics and cabinet of

exquisite finishing quality and rigid structure.

It combines two high-power and low-distortion 12-inch woofer

drivers. Both are firmly secured in a vibration-cancellation

system. They are powered with advanced digital amplification

and processed with highly-linear active filtering circuitry. The

amplifier can deliver up to 700 watts at minimal heat

dissipation. The active circuit uses high-quality and high-

reliability components and integrates advanced protection

circuitry. All of that, grants the Rocco a capacity to reach high

summits of 120 dB SPL of acoustic pressure at very low

distortion.

The result is a high-resolution subwoofer that gives a great

sense of liveliness, scale, and presence in the listening space.

Your Rocco, without any doubt, will sound natural and

powerful even throughout a seemingly unlimited dynamic

range even at the lowest frequencies. It will give you hours of

enjoyable performance without fatigue.

Features and Benefits

The Rocco’s ability to reproduce low frequencies with a high

degree of sound intelligibility comes from many useful

features.

Force canceling system

Highly effective noise canceling system that reduces more than

30 dB the cabinet parasitic noise transmission and eliminates

the pendulum effect which can create important output losses.

Effortless Neutrality

High-headroom and low-distortion transducers are used in a

unique Bessel-ported cabinet, along with a high-power digital

amplifier for high dynamics at low frequency reproduction.

Long-lived Reliability

High-performance protection circuitry along with high-

reliability components allowing an extensive use for years to

come.

Great flexibility

Ingenious crossover design for a high level of flexibility in all

situations.

Exquisite Finishing

Splendid Italian finishing (top quality polyester) of sumptuous

brilliance and impeccable coating that will last for years.

Compact Design

Accommodating size with no performance impairment that

grants dazzling sound in any listening environment.

All these features synthesize Verity Audio’s commitment for

bringing the music foundation back to its essence: Pure and

exalted emotions.

Description

The Rocco is a high-performance active subwoofer composed

of two 12-inch high-power transducers configured in a bass-

reflex cabinet. Both transducers are firmly attached together via

a vibration canceling system. The active system is composed

of a state-of-the-art high-power digital amplifier, and high-

quality filter and processor. All that is packaged in a solid

cabinet lacquered with exquisite Italian lacquer.

The vibration canceling system consists of four 5/8-inch

damped-steel rods that firmly link both woofers together. The

summation of the forces created by the acceleration and mass

product of each individual woofer cone will be zeroed because

of their opposite directions. This topology greatly reduces inner

cabinet vibrations. It then stabilizes the complete cabinet and

improves reference to ground. High-diameter and long-throw

drivers usually create enough accelerating forces to rock the

complete cabinet and create distortion and energy leakage.
