The JL Audio Dominion d110 combines unbridled power with a willingness to plunge into the deepest of the audio spectrum. Low-frequency effects of modern blockbusters in his performance are served savory and tasty. Those who are especially important for the spectacular accompaniment of films have turned to the right address. It is gratifying to note the thoroughness of elaboration of bass instrument parts when playing music records, surprisingly combined with the barrage of low-frequency impulses in the dynamic moments of movie soundtracks. The subwoofer clearly evaluates its capabilities and does not try to dive deeper, as a result of which the bass output is always weighted, taut, and devoid of amorphousness, parasitic overtones, and distortions. In vigorous rock compositions, JL Audio Dominion d110 exhibits an enviable sense of rhythm,

The massive JL Audio Dominion d110 subwoofer cabinet is made of thick MDF panels and finished in luxurious black piano lacquer. Very high-quality assembly - attention to the smallest details gives a high-class product. The emitter is mounted on the front panel of the case and covered with a strong rigid grill on a plastic frame covered with a black acoustically transparent fabric. The grill is removable, but you will have to work hard to dismantle it - the mount is tight, not allowing any overtones. The graceful company logo is present both on the outside of the grill and on the driver cone, as on all JL Audio car woofers. The device rests on powerful supports made of dense rubber, which provides good vibration isolation from the floor. There is no bass reflex port here,
The original design solutions in the design of the drivers allow you to achieve outstanding results - to minimize distortion when reproducing high power signals. Much of the company's know-how is used in the younger line of subwoofers for home use Dominion. A distinctive feature of the drivers used is the large diffuser travel, reaching 68 mm in the older model, with minimal distortion, which makes it possible to achieve such an impressive depth of bass even in a compact closed case.

The patch panel occupies almost the entire rear wall of the subwoofer enclosure. The central place here is given to a cast radiator for cooling the amplifier's output stages. Although the JL Audio Dominion d110 uses a class D amplifier with high energy efficiency, the high output power, reaching 750 watts peak, makes it necessary to take measures for reliable cooling. Above the radiator is a panel with various controls. In addition to the usual knobs for adjusting the gain and cutoff frequency of the crossover, there is a smooth control of the signal phase and a switch that blocks the crossover. The actual switching is concentrated in the lower part of the panel. The low-level input is implemented on RCA connectors and is used both for connection to a stereo pre-amplifier and to the AV-receiver or processor (in the second case, the subwoofer crossover should be turned off). A non-standard comb connector is used for switching high-level signals. The corresponding mating part is included in the kit.

This useful feature allows you not only to forget about the need to turn the subwoofer on and off before and after a movie show but also to save a little energy. However, at the same time, I would like to have a conventional power switch and the ability to block the operation of the machine. Finally, there is also an RJ45 connector for connecting the optional JLINK ™ TRX system wireless source unit. It is simply impossible to overestimate the possibility of wireless communication with a subwoofer since this is the only speaker system that can be located in a cinema hall quite freely. And the absence of an extra limiter in the form of a cable from an AV receiver or processor is only a plus here. This useful feature allows you not only to forget about the need to turn the subwoofer on and off before and after a movie show but also to save a little energy.
