Quadral QUBE S 8 Subwoofer
A true bassist.
This compact subwoofer can quake the floor. Its meagre dimensions make it almost invisible in the listening room, but you can’t miss the power conjured up by the 220 mm long-stroke woofer. Supported by a bass reflex channel, and of a ‘downfire’ design, the Qube 8’s potent output stage produces bone-dry accents in the lower bass range. It doesn’t matter whether musical subtlety or powerful home theatre sound is needed — the Qube 8 is a true universal genius, plus soft clipping and a peak limiter are there just in case life gets a little too exuberant.
