The Bowers & Wilkins Dual 8" Black In-Wall Subwoofer is a passive audio component designed to deliver deep, impactful bass discreetly within your home theater or audio system. Featuring two 8-inch paper/aramid fiber cone woofers, this subwoofer offers a frequency response of 21Hz to 200Hz (+/- 3dB) for rich, detailed low-end sound. With a slim profile of just 0.8 inches depth for the grille and an overall subwoofer depth of 3.7 inches, it integrates seamlessly into your wall, providing powerful bass without occupying floor space. Connectivity is handled via spring clips, and it comes with a 5-year limited warranty on both parts and labor.
Bigger isn't always better; match the subwoofer size and power to your room volume. Ported subs are better for movies, while sealed subs are tighter for music. Available from $1,200.
Active subwoofers draw power constantly if left on, but auto-standby features minimize this. They require almost no maintenance other than dusting.
