ADAM Sub8 – active 8.5″ studio subwoofer with a 160 W RMS (240 W Music) PWM/ICEpower amplifier, frequency range of 28–150 Hz, and a max SPL ≥110 dB (1 m). On the front, it features two motorized knobs (level and crossover), which can also be controlled via the included wireless remote. The rear panel includes XLR/RCA inputs and "Satellite Out" XLR/RCA outputs for connecting monitors.
Sub8 is designed to extend the low-end in small rooms (up to approx. 20 m²) and nearfield monitoring setups. The 8.5″ woofer with a 38 mm voice coil, driven by a cool and efficient ICEpower amplifier, delivers tight and clean bass, while remote control of level and crossover frequency allows precise tuning from the listening position.
Setup is simplified by the adjustable 50–150 Hz crossover, switchable Satellite filter at 85 Hz (Dolby recommendation), and 0°/180° phase switch. The "Signal On" mode automatically powers the unit on or off, and the XLR/RCA connectors ensure compatibility with most studio setups.
