PL5586 - Overview

The Dillinger Labs Death From Below Mk2 is built and optimized from the ground up to be a battery powered speaker. In the world of battery speakers, bags of Watts is actually a bad thing. Imagine how long a 115 Wh battery would power a 3600 W speaker..115/3600 = 0.03 hours. Even once you consider crest factor, you still end up at at around 0.13 hours (8 minutes).

Dillinger Labs started by making the volume work more intuitively. Now you can crank the volume to the top and still have clean bass. Dillinger Labs didn't use brute force. Dillinger Labs didn't just throw watts at it. That means they also didn't compromise battery life or weight. None of the refinements involved adding dynamics compression in the DSP. But they did carefully sculpt the EQ presets to make Mk2 sound even sweeter. Exactly zero people complained DFB didn't have enough bells & whistles, so Dillinger Labs didn't add any.

In total they made 50 refinements to the DFB Mk2. Some were foundational, such as the enhancements they made to the ports and acoustic chamber. Others were little things, like making the power button white so you can easily find it in a dark room. The lion's share of the refinements add up to an extra 6 dB SPL of clean bass. Mk2 is way louder, and it's also way clearer.

The SKAA® standard for wireless audio guarantees compatibility between all products bearing the SKAA Compatible Badge. It also guarantees product antenna performance by verifying reliable operating distance minimums have been met. SKAA transmitters work with iOS & Android mobile devices, Mac & Windows computers, televisions and any product having a line output, S/PDIF output or a headphone jack.

  • Features:

    • Feed DFB from Dani transmitters, Soundboks 3, 4 & Go speakers, other SKAA Nadja Hub speakers, as well as any of the many types of SKAA/SKAA Pro transmitters
    • Pro-grade SKAA wireless audio. 100% Bluetooth-free. 100% WiFi free.
    • Use up to 4 SKAA receivers (any combination of Death from Below and any other SKAA receivers) at the same time with any one SKAA transmitter
    • Remembers up to 10 of your favorite sources
    • Low latency - great for live performance
    • Choose from 6 epic EQ presets including one specifically tuned for use with popular Soundboks speakers
    • Configure DFB's audio routing from the front panel. Select from LEFT, RIGHT or MONO MIX audio. Set up two DFBs as stereo subs if that's what you want.
    • DFB remembers your EQ and audio routing setups - they'll be active until you change them again
    • A built-in hybrid bank of ultra-fast film capacitors and low-ESR capacitors jacks up DFB's performance by giving its amps instant access to energy when needed; that is, by ensuring the amps are never starved for power - the resulting enhanced impulse response is what's behind DFB's extra-ballsy punch.
    • Time Align function includes a phase flip option plus a selection of delays you can choose from
    • Dual tuned ports extend DFB's bass response down to 25 Hz while maximizing SPL output
