Monitor Audio CLG-W12 In-Ground Subwoofer

Experience outdoor soundscapes like never before with the Monitor Audio CLG-W12 In-Ground Subwoofer. An audiological marvel built for the elements, the CLG-W12 brings your garden to life with more than just flora and fauna; it introduces the magic of music into an outdoor environment, redefining your outdoor entertaining experience.

Painstakingly optimised for discreet sub-surface installation, this cutting-edge product features an internally loaded 12" C-CAM driver housed in a waterproof, rotationally-moulded polymer enclosure. Aptly termed a 'sonic garden gnome', only its domed output port peeks from beneath the soil, effortlessly pumping out potent bass frequencies that blend with the mids and highs from your CLG140/CLG160 satellites.

This subwoofer is effortlessly powered from a single amplifier channel at 4 ohms, offering a seamless sound delivery that rivals even the most elite home audio systems. And the CLG-W12's flexibility doesn't stop there. You could install the subwoofer within a planter box to boost the bass performance of your all-weather cabinet speakers or, to cover larger garden spaces, simply add amplifier channels, subwoofers, and satellites.

From patio parties to poolside get-togethers, deck soirees to garden gatherings, Monitor Audio's CLG-W12 is poised to revolutionise your outdoor acoustics with its punchy, extended bass delivery. Truly, this is the epitome of garden installation, a powerful component that not only embellishes your ambient environment with the beauty of sound but does so while maintaining a minimal footprint and never compromising on structural integrity or aesthetic appeal.

Features:

  1. Sub-Surface Installation: Optimised for sub-surface installation, the CLG-W12 can be discreetly installed in your garden, with only its domed output port visible above the surface. This makes it an ideal aspect of any garden aesthetic.

  2. Internally Loaded 12" C-CAM Driver: This special mechanism that sits within a waterproof rotationally-moulded polymer enclosure helps the CLG-W12 deliver a powerful, taut bass that blends smoothly with the surrounding satellites' mids and highs.

  3. 70/100 V Line Directive: This feature allows for longer cable runs (over 30ft) and adding more subwoofers to your system without sound loss. Moreover, the satellites can be connected to the CLG-W12, one after the other.

  4. System Expansion: Enhance your garden space by adding amplifier channels, subwoofers, and satellites.

  5. Enhanced Planter Box Installation: Customize your patio or deck by blending deep bass frequencies with the CL Series all-weather cabinet speakers.

  6. Ingress Protection Rating (IP54): This guarantees the product's durability, even in the harshest weather scenarios.

Benefits:

  1. Small Space, Big Sound: This subwoofer takes minimal space in your garden, requiring only a small soil patch for installation. Despite its size, this audio device delivers big and lush sound in an outdoor environment.

  2. Full-Range Sound: With a frequency response from 30 Hz to 30 kHz, the CLG-W12 offers a wide and controlled frequency response, enriching your outdoor sound experience.

  3. Subtle Design: With a dark brown finish that blends with the garden landscape, the CLG-W12 is the ideal blend of functionality and aesthetics.

  4. Flexibility: Whether you're looking to cover a larger area, add more bass to your cabinet speakers, or provide stereo operation by creating left/right zones, the CLG-W12's design enables you to adapt to different needs and preferences.

  5. Robust & Water Resistant: Designed to withstand tough environmental conditions, its strong, waterproof structure ensures that your music can play, rain or shine.

  6. Authentic Audio Experience: Utilising award-winning hi-fi technology, the CLG-W12 replicates the vibe and feel of an in-house music system, creating a mesmerising outdoor audio experience.
