Gravity

When you just need more.

Passive 26cm subwoofer pair designed exclusively for Terra integration. Extends system response to 30Hz linear (F1 at 30Hz, F6 at 20Hz) via zero-phase LR4 crossover at 80Hz. System SPL increases to 112dB @ 1kHz (106dB @ 50Hz). Powered directly from Terra’s rear panel for seamless 2.2 system operation.

Purpose-built integration

Gravity is designed exclusively for Terra – powered directly from Terra’s rear panel with coordinated DSP calibration. No external amplifiers, no separate bass management, no phase alignment guesswork. The passive design ensures Terra and Gravity operate as a unified system from a single control point.

Extended foundation with precision

Terra’s 40Hz linear (F1 at 40Hz, F6 at 30Hz) extends to 30Hz linear (F1 at 30Hz, F6 at 20Hz). System SPL increases to 112dB @ 1kHz (106dB @ 50Hz) – headroom for critical passages and larger spaces. Full-range accuracy without the typical integration compromises of adding aftermarket subwoofers.

Compact 2.2 architecture

Pair of 26cm PuriFi subwoofers in compact enclosures allows near-field placement alongside Terra. Stereo bass information remains accurate, room mode excitation is minimized, and the complete system fits where single large subwoofers can’t. Professional 2.2 configuration in a manageable footprint.

Seamless expansion, no compromise

Terra is complete for most applications. When your work demands deeper extension – film, game audio, immersive formats, larger rooms – Gravity integrates without the phase misalignment, level matching challenges, or bass management complexity typical of adding subwoofers. It works because it was designed to work together.

TECHNICAL FOUNDATION

Gravity completes the Terra system by providing deep low-frequency extension that maintains the same phase coherence and accuracy standards Terra establishes. Designed as a passive subwoofer system powered directly from Terra’s rear panel, Gravity integrates without the external amplification, bass management processors, or phase alignment challenges typical of adding subwoofers to an existing monitoring setup.

Cabinet Engineering

Gravity uses the same monocoque aluminum extrusion approach as Terra, scaled for subwoofer duty. Each cabinet is a 12mm flat-wall extrusion with 25mm ribbing at all corners and center wall points. Both front and rear baffles are 19mm solid aluminum, compressed onto the main shell with M12 bolts applying nearly 4 tons of clamping force to the entire assembly.

The result is a cabinet engineered for the extreme forces of low-frequency reproduction – no flexing, no panel resonance, no cabinet contribution to what you’re hearing. Just the acoustic output of the driver, nothing else.

Driver Technology

Gravity uses 26cm PuriFi PTT10.0W96-08 drivers – the same hybrid motor architecture and symmetrical surround geometry as Terra’s woofer, scaled for dedicated low-frequency duty. Custom concave aluminum diaphragms maximize bending stiffness in the low frequencies where these drivers operate.

The PuriFi architecture delivers exceptional linear excursion with extremely fast settling time. Uneven stiffness creates harmonic distortion and compression artifacts – this symmetrical design eliminates those distortions even at the long excursions required for deep bass reproduction.

When integrated with Terra via zero-phase LR4 crossover at 80Hz, the system reaches 30Hz linear (F1 at 30Hz, F6 at 20Hz). Each Gravity driver delivers substantial output in a compact 12″ cube enclosure, allowing placement near Terra for optimal phase coherence.

System Integration & Amplification

Gravity is a passive design – it contains no amplifiers or electronics. All power and control comes from Terra’s rear panel amplification, specifically engineered to drive Gravity’s impedance and power requirements.

This integrated approach eliminates the typical challenges of adding subwoofers: no level matching between separate amplifiers, no phase alignment between independent DSP systems, no bass management crossover points to configure. Terra’s DSP handles crossover integration, time alignment, and system calibration for the complete 2.2 configuration.

Each Gravity driver is measured during production to verify performance specifications. When connected to Terra, the rear panel integration ensures proper impedance matching and power delivery, and Terra’s DSP applies the appropriate crossover and time alignment for seamless system operation.

TESTIMONIALS

It’s the confidence I get from finally being able to trust my own taste that makes these speakers great. Music is a way composers, engineers, and most importantly listeners communicate and it’s done in such a personal way, the most valuable thing you can do for yourself and your audience is to communicate with conviction. Quasars give me that power.

Artist, Producer, Engineer
Didn’t realize what I have been missing! After multiple mixes, Pulsars boosted my confidence, I was cranking them out so much faster. It was making mixing so much fun. I submitted some mixes I re-did with Pulsars, and clients were blown away by the differences. I will forever be a proud owner of these.

Joshua Young

Studio Owner, Engineer
If you’re struggling with translation, this will end that battle. The sound staging is insanely hyper accurate. What you hear on these monitors, you will hear on literally any system.

Ryan Harvey

Engineer, Producer
I can hear exactly what I need to do to improve my sound… Quasars are a major tool that help me accomplish this. They are the best thing I’ve bought for my studio in a decade.

Justin Melland

Film Composer
Quasars have become my most valued and crucial piece of equipment. They give me total confidence in knowing how tracking and mixing sessions will translate outside of the room… They provide clarity, transparency, and inspiration.

James Meslin

Recording Engineer, Mixer, Producer
The mid tweet coaxial on these monitors presents a midrange detail like I’ve never heard before. These speakers are far from fatiguing while presenting a pristine midrange and transient response. I’m truly over the moon.

ALEX E

Music Producer, Mixing Engineer
Over the years, I have worked with a number of very good speakers in many studios but the Ex Machina Pulsar takes monitoring to another level. These are truthful tools that you can definitely rely on.

Patrick Derivaz

Bass Player, Composer, Engineer, Producer
Everything translated well and felt balanced, the low end was amazing, I don’t need a sub anymore ! I find that I can work at low volume and hear every detail and also listen loud without fatiguing… The stereo image and center are really defined, I honestly can’t find anything that I don’t like.

Manon Grandjean

Recording, Mixing, Mastering Engineer
The Pulsars have been truly game changing for me. They are super accurate, revealing, and the transient detail is incredible which has made the mixing process much more efficient and allowed for more confident decision making. I couldn’t be more happy with them.
