B&W 10″ 1000w Active Subwoofer
Price range: $2,299 through $2,999AUD inc. GST
The Bowers & Wilkins 10″ 1000W active subwoofer is designed for listeners who want uncompromising low‑frequency performance in a refined, beautifully engineered package. Built around a single 10‑inch Aerofoil™ bass driver, the subwoofer uses a lightweight yet exceptionally rigid cone structure that maintains stability under extreme excursion. This allows it to deliver tight, articulate, and deeply extended bass that enhances both cinematic soundtracks and high‑resolution music playback.
Driving the subwoofer is a 1000‑watt Class‑D amplifier, providing enormous power reserves with exceptional efficiency. This amplifier architecture ensures the subwoofer can reproduce sudden dynamic peaks—explosions, bass drops, orchestral swells—without strain or distortion. The result is bass that feels effortless, controlled, and physically impactful, even in larger rooms.
To maintain accuracy across the entire low‑frequency range, the subwoofer incorporates advanced digital signal processing, including dynamic equalisation that adapts output to maintain clarity and balance at any volume. This ensures that bass remains clean and defined, never boomy or muddy, even when pushed to demanding levels.
The enclosure is a sealed, acoustically inert cabinet, chosen for its speed, precision, and natural roll‑off characteristics. Internal bracing minimizes resonance, allowing the driver and amplifier to perform with maximum transparency. The cabinet is finished in premium materials—typically gloss black, satin white, or wood‑tone options—giving it a sophisticated aesthetic that complements modern home‑theatre and hi‑fi systems.
Setup and tuning are made simple through app‑based control, allowing users to adjust calibration, room correction, and performance parameters directly from a smartphone. This makes it easy to integrate the subwoofer into a wide range of systems, from dedicated home cinemas to high‑end stereo setups.
Overall, the Bowers & Wilkins 10″ 1000W active subwoofer is built for enthusiasts who demand deep, accurate, and authoritative bass without compromising on design or refinement. It brings cinematic realism and musical depth to any system, delivering performance that feels both powerful and precise.
