Our thoughts

Two passive radiators working alongside a single long-throw driver are intended to extend bass from a modest cabinet, which suits owners who need low-end support without giving up floor space.

The Class D amplifier supplies around 200 W RMS to the driver, and the layout is designed to keep distortion and port noise down. The 60 to 120 Hz low-pass crossover sets where the sub hands over to your main speakers, and the phase switch is intended to keep it in phase with them. Inputs include an LFE RCA, line-level left and right, and speaker-level binding posts, so it can take signal from an AV processor or an amplifier's speaker outputs.

Home theatre and stereo systems with limited room for hardware are where it fits most naturally. Pre-loved, in excellent functional condition at 8/10, with some fabric discolouration and its box included. Call or visit the showroom to discuss how it integrates with your amplifier and speakers.
