Cambridge Audio Minx X301-300 Watt Active Subwoofer Featuring Auxiliary Bass Driver and Fully Adjustable Sound - Black

Product Information

A home theater system already takes an ample space in the living room. Adding more devices to it will only occupy more space. Well, you do not have to worry about the Sony SA-SW5 300W Wireless subwoofer. Scottish Islands - HS1-9, IV40-51, IV55-56, KA27-28, KW15-17, PA20, PA41-49, PA60-78, PH42-44, ZE1-3 The term overbuilt gets thrown around a lot, but in the case of the JL Audio 10W0v3, it actually applies. With a beefy voice coil and JL Audio's patented Elevated Frame Cooling, it is certainly capable of handling power. It also offers best-in-class excursion capability, with a motor refined using JL's exclusive DMA modeling system for increased output and better sound quality. Not only that, but you can also enjoy movies. If you have a big gathering of friends or family, the subwoofer is excellent. It produces low-frequency sound. But, the best part is its clarity. You understand the dialogues, music, and environment with a cinematic experience. 2. Competitive Price EQCertain subwoofers and many receivers offer room EQ processing, which provides a room-specific equalizer setting by playing test tones via your speakers and subwoofer. These can be quite useful in reducing frequency response peaks (over-accentuated notes). They can’t, however, fill a gap in frequencies that are difficult to hear due to the room’s acoustics. These aren’t magical systems. They can’t make a cheap, underpowered sub sound like a big, powerful one, and they can’t totally compensate for bad sub placement. They do, however, help, and if you have the opportunity, you should consider them.

An integrated low pass filter can improve the bass output in your gigs and performances and create more clarity in your coupled top speakers. This feature gives you the ability to customise how much low-endfrequency is taken from the input source and then played through the band subwoofer. The filter can draw from the lowest bass frequencies up to the midrange, leaving the rest of the middle and high-end to go into the connected speakers. Completely Adjustable Electronic Crossovers Assure a Perfect Match to Your System and Room The sophisticated low distortion electronic crossovers incorporated in all our powered subwoofers are a masterpiece of design and execution. They contain a complete range of hookups, circuitry and features which allow the subwoofers to be connected and perfectly blended with any system as well as adjusted for optimum performance in any room. The rule of thumb for subwoofer placement is that placing the sub against a wall will increase the volume slightly. It will add a little extra if you put it in the corner. Both places won’t provide you the most precise bass response (i.e., certain frequencies will be emphasized more than others), but they will give you greater volume if that’s what you want. You’ll need UL-rated speaker wire labeled CL2 or CL3 for in-wall or ceiling speakers. For additional information, see our guide to in-wall wiring.

Since it is an optional addition, many people do not even know about the subwoofer. If it were a standalone Sony speaker, it would have gained more popularity. 2. A bit Costly Most of us desire this at home, but with so many subwoofers to choose from — and even more specifications and sizes — how can we know which is the best? While the obvious answer is “the biggest, most powerful you can afford,” the correct answer is a little more complicated. For the most part, the table above will suffice. But what if you require a length of 50 or even 100 feet? In that scenario, choose a wire gauge two sizes larger to double the size. Here at What Hi-Fi?we review hundreds of products every year, from TVs to speakers, headphones to hi-fi systems. So how do we come to our review verdicts? And why can you trust them? Allow us to explain.

Definitive's ProSub 800 is an advanced state-of-the-art technology active subwoofer with built-in high-power, high-current amplifier and sophisticated electronic crossover in combination with an 8 inch driver of the highest quality. A complete array of controls and connections allows it to be hooked up to and perfectly integrated with any stereo or multi-channel audio system, and tuned for optimum performance in any room. The sonic result is accurate, awe-inspiring, high-impact, high-reality bass performance with superior transient response, vanishingly low distortion, stupendous subsonic power and high output capabilities. It is truly a unique combination of delicate musicality and thunderous power for the ultimate in home theater sound effects as well as unsurpassed musical excellence. Wires sized 12- to 16-gauge are recommended for wiring subwoofers. There will be no audible difference between them; the larger cable will simply have less power loss. Is 12 gauge speaker wire good for subwoofers? Another subwoofer that can be paired with is SW3 200W. However, it is more compact than SA-SW5. The latter is considered an ‘absolute beast’ when it comes to bass production.

Key specs

Subwoofers are most commonly associated with the thump-thump of other automobiles at stoplights. This is a terrible bass. Quality is sacrificed in favor of quantity. A good subwoofer, properly placed in a space, may provide realistically deep sounds, not simply the thump-thump. The goal of every speaker system is to reproduce all frequencies in the audio spectrum as precisely as possible. So the best subwoofers don’t produce a boom sound, but rather a greater bass than small speakers can provide. Better audio fidelity, not necessarily more bass, is the goal of good bass. An auditory representation that is more accurate to the music or movie. You can certainly turn it up if you want to add more bass, but the idea is that you don’t have to. The In Phase USW300 Ultra Slim Underseat Car Subwoofer is your solution for that extra bass without requiring much space. Condition: Ex-Display/Demo Item In Excellent Condition - Supplied In Original Retail Box With Remote Control And Power Cable - The Item May Have Small Cosmetic Blemishes Such As Minor Marks If you have anything like the Bose cube speakers, where the speakers link to the sub, there’s probably some extra processing going on inside the sub, and I’d do some further study to be sure you can swap it out without any problems.

If you are using an HDMI soundbar, the process is the simplest. All you need is to connect one end to your TV and the other end to your soundbar ‘TV OUT’ port. Condition: Graded Item In USED Condition - Supplied In Plain Brown Box With Remote Control And Power Cable - The Item Will Have Cosmetic Blemishes Such As Marks And Scratches All Definitive powered subwoofers have continuously adjustable low pass filter controls which allow you to choose a roll-off of from 40 to 150 Hz for the high end of the subwoofer. This unique "dual stage" roll-off is extremely steep which ensures perfect blending with your main speakers as well as eliminating unwanted midrange from the subwoofer. This is especially important because it gives you much greater flexibility in placing your subwoofer in your room without being able to hear where it is located. All our powered subwoofers also have a separate low-level direct LFE input for Dolby Digital which bypasses the crossover network. All models have a built-in speaker level high-pass crossover preset at 80 Hz (except ProSub 60 preset at 100Hz) and, of course, a precision level control allows you to perfectly adjust the volume of the subwoofer to match your system and room as well as to fulfill your own personal sonic preferences. If you want to add some bass on a budget, the newSonos Sub Mini is worth considering. Smaller than the full-sized Sonos Sub (below), it offers snappy delivery and a discreet build at a price that's... well, not actually all that cheap, it turns out.Metal corner protectors reduce the risk of damage to the speaker during travel and installation or moving

We imagine this is Sonos' take on "budget" device. It fits neatly into existing Sonos systems, but we imagine it's also a rather niche product that won't be for everyone. For smaller spaces, however, it could well fit the bill.

Jamo SUB 300 - Pros & Cons

So while there’s no rule that says “12-inch 100-watts for ‘X’-size room,” larger, higher-powered subs will almost always sound better, even in smaller spaces. A 12-inch, 100-watt sub is unlikely to suffice in a large room or one that is open to the rest of the home. In fact, 12-inch, 100-watt subs should generally be considered the bare minimum. Subs with less than 100 watts should be avoided, and if the driver is smaller, you’ll need much more power. Of course, there are exceptions, but this should serve as a good starting point. In conclusion This design and shape match Sony’s speakers and home theater systems. That’s because all their sound devices are designed with this shape in mind.
