The D3is is a beautiful subwoofer made from extruded aluminum, which houses three 203mm (8″) woofers with glass fibre cones. The D3 comes with brackets to mount it on a wall or within a structure. The D3 also comes with an external DSP-controlled 1,500-watt amplifier and rack ears if you desire to mount it into a standard 403mm (19″) equipment rack. Don’t be fooled by its diminutive size. This is a highly capable and aesthetically pleasing subwoofer.
D3is – Designed for applications where space is a premium. The D3is works equally well mounted in-wall or on-wall. Proprietary isolation mounts
and brackets are designed into the enclosure to reduce overall vibration and noise from transmitting to the adjancent wall. The sub was designed
using proprietary nonlinear modeling techniques that allow us to simulate and then optimize for real world driver performance – free air and in
box. Further refinement is done with the aid of our Klippel laser measurement system to dial things in. Powered by our 1500W amplifier now in
its own chasis, utilizing a larger 2.8” LCD touchscreen display. Rack mounting hardware is included. Common to all Perlisten subs, all functions
and safeties are controlled by a 48-bit data path DSP and 32-bit ARM M4 Cortex processor, able to react in microseconds ensuring sonic accuracy

Dsp 1500 for D3is
The D3is utilizes a specially designed DSP1500, external 1,500-watt amplifier. This amplifier can be used with the integrated feet as a standalone product or with the included rack ears. The DSP1500 occupies two rack spaces and features both front and rear mounts. Ventilation flows from the front to the back; when deploying multiple units, there’s no need for a blank rack space between units.
All functions and safeties are controlled by a 48-bit data path DSP and a 32-bit ARM M4 Cortex processor, capable of reacting in microseconds and powerful enough to withstand extreme conditions. The amplifier is controlled by the Perlisten Audio app, which can simultaneously control up to eight Perlisten subwoofer models. This includes a 10-Band PEQ with 3 user presets, phase and delay controls, input selection, and turn-on options such as signal sense and trigger, as well as various EQ modes for large rooms, small rooms, and THX settings.
There’s more, but you can find out when you play with one! As with all D-Series subwoofers, the DSP 1500 shares the 2.4” LCD touchscreen display for convenient control and self-testing. Advanced control is handled through the app.
The DSP 1500 features unbalanced RCA inputs and outputs, a balanced XLR input and output, an AES/EBU digital XLR input, a 12-volt trigger, and a Bluetooth antenna for interfacing with the Perlisten Audio App, utilizing Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) for the amplifier.
