Recent Subwoofers Reviews

Velodyne has got to be one of the most recognizable names in subwoofers, and the Impact-10 is priced for discerning consumers who take their bass seriously and want a bargain at the same time.

The Rythmik Audio F25 claims a frequency response down to 14Hz at just -2dB. That's pretty impressive (heck that's REALLY impressive) trough a combination of a tall, heavy box, huge drivers and tech.

Review: The HSU VTF-15H subwoofer is a good example of what can be done when you attempt to squeeze the last bit of performance from a modest budget. Though its not a perfect sub, its a performer.

The Aperion Bravus 10D is an attractive, potent little subwoofer at a reasonable price. It certainly doesn't have the output and extension of its larger peers but that's a tradeoff for a smaller box.

Can Emotiva's Ultra 12 $500 12-inch subwoofer really compete? We weren't sure, so we got one and hooked it up. The Ultra 12 sub sports a 300W Class D amp and plenty of punch.

Velodyne introduced new affordable subwoofer series called EQ-Max featuring one-touch remote control setup, built-in processing, and advanced engineering to deliver dynamic bass performance.

The New Emotiva X-Ref 12 subwoofer takes the performance up a notch from the worthy Ultra series with only a modest price increase. Free shipping & reasonable price further makes this sub a strong bet

Review: The Klipsch SW-311 subwoofer sports a 10" active & 2 passive 10" drivers & 500 watt amp. It's small & packed with excellent technology & performance earning our "Medium Room" Bassaholic ratin

Review: The RBH Sound SX-12 is a 12" aluminum cone, 350 watt powered subwoofer that meets our Large room size Bassaholic rating and serves up excellent musical performance over sheer low end output.

The $5000 Meridian Digital Active DSW subwoofer is a diminutive sub at 15" by 17" by 18" tall though is 48.5 pounds. The problem is the Meridian DSW subwoofer MUST be used with Meridian speakers.

Sporting not one, but two 10" poly-matrix cone woofers, the EMPtek ES1010i subwoofer breaks almost all of the budget conventions.

The Outlaw Audio LFM-1 EX is a moderately large 12” ported powered subwoofer with a built in 350 watt rated amplifier. We found it to be an overachiever earning our “Large Room” Bassaholic rating.

The SVS PB-12NSD subwoofer is a 12", 400 watt ported design with true 20Hz extension and no nonsense engineering.

Bragging a 15" driver, front firing slot port, a 400 watt amp, and a -3dB point at 18Hz, the new Klipsch SW-115 is ready to play. And it plays for keeps.

The Emotiva X-Ref 12 is a 12” sealed 600 watt powered subwoofer that is well built, sounds great and serves up small rooms while fitting in tight spaces quite nicely.

We got to review Velodyne's EQ-Max 15 - and it's big. As the name suggests, it's a 15-inch subwoofer that's larger than most of the products you'll find that try and cater to the "less-is-more" crowd.

Mike Detmer, President of Niles is going out on a limb, saying their new SW6.5 and SW8 subwoofers "outperform their larger rivals and offer superior sound quality and design..." Bold claims!

The Paradigm Sub 2 features six 10” drivers and over 4.5 kilowatts of power. At $8,999 it’s not cheap but performance, fit and finish are top notch earning some of the best bench tests we’ve seen.

The SVS SB12-NSD is an affordable 400watt sealed powered subwoofer with a 12” aluminum cone driver in a tiny sealed cabinet to produce satisfying and exceptionally well rounded bass. Small but potent.

Sporting two 15" woofers, the Power Sound Audio XV30's 21Hz ground plane measurement will likely translate to something well into subsonic range in room. At $1249, that's an amazing value.

Funk Audio has released four new powered subwoofers (15.0, 15.3, 18.0C and 18.1), ranging from $1350 - $1995. Although the name is a little funny, these are some serious subwoofers.

The SB-1000 and PB-1000 are the newest and most affordable subwoofers yet offered by SVS. For only $499 with FREE shipping the budget subwoofer market just got a lot more competitive.

MartinLogan's flagship subwoofers, the BalancedForce 210 and 212, are no joke. With opposing drivers, powerful amps, and advanced room correction, MartinLogan isn't playing around.
