JL Audio Dominion d110-GLOSS is a powered subwoofer for home stereo and cinema systems. Its 10-inch driver is powered by a Class D amplifier rated at 750 W RMS short-term output, while the sealed MDF enclosure measures 12 × 13.4 × 15.86 inches (305 × 340 × 403 mm). RCA and speaker-level inputs support systems with or without a dedicated subwoofer output. Adjustable crossover, phase and level controls help integrate it with the main speakers.

Description

JL Audio Dominion d110-GLOSS is a powered subwoofer designed for home stereo and cinema systems. It combines a 10-inch long-excursion driver with a Class D amplifier rated at 750 W RMS short-term output. Its compact sealed enclosure suits systems where flexible connection and adjustment options are important.

Enclosure Design

The sealed enclosure is made from MDF and reinforced with internal bracing. Because it has no bass-reflex port, you can alter how the subwoofer interacts with the room by experimenting with its position. The gloss-black finish is complemented by a black fabric grille.

Connecting the Audio System

Two RCA inputs accept either a stereo or mono line-level signal. The mono connection is suitable for the subwoofer output of an AV receiver. A stereo connection can be used with a stereo component that provides suitable line-level outputs.

A speaker-level input, connected through a removable plug, allows the subwoofer to be used in a system without a dedicated line-level subwoofer output. Input grounding can be set to isolated or grounded. Balanced inputs and line-level outputs are not provided.

Sound Adjustment

The low-pass crossover can be adjusted from 25 to 130 Hz. Its 24 dB/octave Linkwitz-Riley alignment helps integrate the subwoofer with the operating range of the main speakers. The crossover can be switched off when bass management is handled by an AV receiver or another system component.

Level adjustment ranges from full mute to 15 dB above reference gain. You can select 0° or 180° polarity. Continuously variable phase adjustment from 0 to 280°, referenced to 80 Hz, provides finer control when setting up the subwoofer from the main listening position.

Choosing a Position

Begin with the subwoofer near the front speakers while leaving enough space to reach its rear connections. Placing the sealed enclosure closer to a wall may allow the room to reinforce the bass. Compare several positions from the primary listening seat, then refine the level and phase settings.

For wireless audio transmission, the separately sold JLINK TRX system can be used. Its specified operating range is up to 30 metres. This is an optional external system rather than wireless connectivity built into the subwoofer.

FAQ

What type of system is this subwoofer intended for?

It is designed to add low-frequency reproduction to a home stereo or cinema system. Its RCA and speaker-level inputs allow it to work with components offering different types of audio output.

Which input should I use with an AV receiver?

Use the mono RCA connection when the receiver has a dedicated subwoofer output. If no such output is available, the speaker-level input can be used instead.

When should the internal crossover be switched off?

It is worth disabling the internal crossover when the AV receiver already manages frequency division. This avoids the combined effect of two filters operating in series.

How should I set phase and polarity?

First compare both polarity settings from the listening position. Then adjust the phase slowly and choose the position that produces the smoothest transition between the main speakers and the subwoofer.

Does the subwoofer have built-in wireless connectivity?

No. Wireless audio transmission requires the separately sold JLINK TRX system. The powered subwoofer still needs a mains power connection.
