Sonance R10SUB

10" in-wall subwoofer from the Reference Series

The Sonance R10SUB is an in-wall subwoofer belonging to the Reference Series and fitted with a 10" woofer: it handles the low frequencies of a system meant for television, films, video games and concerts.

The Sonance data sheet describes it as the driver unit of the subwoofer: to work it needs the R10 in-wall enclosure of the Reference Series, which is a separate item. It measures 265 x 265 x 80 mm (width, height, depth), has a grille in perforated steel and the finish stated by the manufacturer is white.

Installation

The R10SUB is installed in the wall together with its in-wall enclosure. Reference Series models are engineered to go into a standard cavity in a wall or ceiling, and the grille follows the look of the grilles used in the Sonance Visual Performance Series, so the subwoofer sits well alongside the other built-in speakers in the room. Sold individually.

Combinations

Sonance states that Reference models can be freely combined with one another, so that the system suits the layout of each room. For this series the manufacturer suggests Sonance DSP amplifiers, which allow the sound to be tuned to the room.
