Description:

Sony's affordable SA-WM250 powered subwoofer is capable of delivering an astonishingly large portion of the emotional impact of both music and movie sound. The 8-inch sub uses a long-throw woofer and offers 100 watts of clarity and stability--and you can place it just about anywhere in the room since human ears are so much less sensitive to directionality in low-frequency sounds than high-frequency sounds. Its ported (bass-reflex) enclosure reinforces low-end output. The speaker is finished in black-ash wood.

When used in conjunction with smaller, bookshelf-type speakers, the subwoofer extends system capability to full-range frequency response. With larger, floorstanding speakers, the sub helps shoulder the burden of reproducing low-frequency information, and its variable crossover (50 to 200 Hz) lets you scale its output to cover only frequencies deeper than those most efficiently reproduced by your speakers in your room (rooms have a huge effect on audible bass response).

The SA-WM250 offers inputs for either line- (RCA) or speaker-level (clip-type) inputs. That means you have the choice of running a dedicated subwoofer cable (supplied) from your surround receiver's subwoofer preamp output (for authentic .1 effects from 5.1- or 6.1-channel programs) or from you level-dependent speaker outputs (speaker wire also included).

The sub's video shielding means you can place it near or under a TV or computer monitor without risk of video distortion from magnetic interference.
