Bowers & Wilkins ASW610XP 10-Inch Active Subwoofer - (Each)
Overview
Bass is the part of a system that most rooms struggle to deliver, and a subwoofer built for larger spaces can fill that gap.
The Bowers & Wilkins ASW610XP is a 10-inch active closed-box subwoofer and the most powerful in the ASW Series. It pairs a 250mm long-throw cone made from paper pulp, Aramid fibre and resin with a 500W Class D amplifier that Bowers & Wilkins says is designed for punch and cool operation.
It reaches -6dB at 18Hz, with three bass extension settings and a variable 4th-order low-pass filter. Line-in, speaker-in and 12V trigger connections make it suitable for both hi-fi and home theatre systems.
Simcoe Audio Video Insight
A subwoofer's performance depends heavily on where it sits in the room, and the right position often takes a little experimentation. At 18.65kg and 325mm square, the ASW610XP is manageable to move around while you find it, and we can help you with placement and settings.
More Info
Why the Bowers & Wilkins ASW610XP Stands Out
Purpose-Built 10-Inch Driver
Bowers & Wilkins says the cone combines paper pulp, Aramid fibre and resin for stiffness and accuracy.
500W Class D Amplifier
A compact cabinet holds a 500W Class D amplifier designed for punch and cool operation.
Adjustable Bass Extension
Three bass extension positions give -6dB points at 18Hz, 23Hz or 28Hz to suit the room.
Flexible Connections
Line in (RCA), speaker in (binding post) and a 12V trigger (3.5mm jack) cover most system setups.
Practical Controls
Input level, low-pass filter frequency, low-pass bypass, bass roll-off alignment, auto sense on/standby and a phase switch.
Made for Larger Rooms
Bowers & Wilkins positions it as the finishing touch to a hi-fi or home theatre system for larger rooms.
Buyer's Guide
Who It's For
- The Larger-Room Listener: has a space that needs more bass than a smaller subwoofer would deliver.
- The Hi-Fi and Home Theatre Owner: wants one subwoofer that works with line-level, speaker-level and trigger connections.
- The Bass-Tuning Enthusiast: wants adjustable bass extension and a variable low-pass filter.
How It Compares
Bowers & Wilkins describes the ASW610XP as the most powerful of the ASW Series subwoofers, aimed at hi-fi and home theatre systems in larger rooms. It is an active, sealed-cabinet design rather than a ported one.
