ADAM Audio is now shipping their new Sub 8, a brand new subwoofer aimed at the project studio market.
The Sub8 is a compact yet powerful subwoofer designed to extend the low end of any near field monitoring system. It houses an excellent 8” woofer with a large 50mm voice coil and is driven by a 160W ICE power amp.
The front baffle features two motorized knobs that allow the end user to tailor input level and crossover frequency settings. These knobs can be controlled with an included wireless remote control, enabling the user to optimize its settings without leaving the ideal listening position. The unit also provides an onboard 2.1 bass management system.
“The breakthrough price point of the Sub8 will allow many project studio owners to fill out existing monitoring setups by any manufacturer,” said Dave Bryce of ADAM Audio USA. “Plus, the ability to tweak the volume and crossover without leaving the sweet spot is a huge time-saver!”
The Sub8 is an ideal match for ADAM monitors such as the A7, P11A, S1A and S2A. In addition to a traditional black model, ADAM will also offer a silver version that will be a perfect complement to the Artist desktop monitor.
