ADAM Audio Sub8 PRO 8" Powered Studio Subwoofer - Black

Bring controlled low-frequency extension and networked DSP management to compact monitoring systems with the ADAM Audio Sub8 PRO 8" powered studio subwoofer. Its high-excursion 8" paper-cone woofer, front-firing FEA-optimized bass reflex port and 200W RMS Class D amplifier deliver a 30Hz–228Hz frequency response at -3dB, while balanced analog XLR/TRS and AES3 digital connections support professional monitor routing. ADAM Control, four-band parametric EQ, Sonarworks SoundID Reference integration and dedicated Stereo, LFE and Wide modes provide control over system alignment, room correction and bass management. For producers and engineers building compact stereo, multichannel or immersive systems, the Sub8 PRO adds low-frequency extension with the calibration flexibility to integrate into a variety of monitoring setups.

High-Excursion Woofer Extends Low-Frequency Monitoring

The high-excursion 8" woofer uses a fiber-reinforced paper cone, elastic rubber surround and ferrite magnet system with demodulation rings to support extended movement while maintaining controlled response. A 200W RMS Class D amplifier drives the woofer, while DSP-managed limiting and protection help keep the driver and electronics within operating limits. The front-firing, front-ported MDF enclosure features an FEA-optimized port designed to reduce airflow turbulence, with additional cabinet bracing and a steel grille protecting the driver in under-desk and studio installations.

Networked DSP Brings Calibration Into the Monitoring Chain

Ethernet connectivity links the Sub8 PRO with ADAM Control, providing remote access to level, phase, delay and four bands of parametric EQ alongside compatible A Series monitors. The onboard DSP can host calibration filters generated in Sonarworks SoundID Reference, allowing room-correction profiles to run directly on the subwoofer after calibration. Firmware updates are also managed through ADAM Control, keeping system configuration and maintenance centralized across networked ADAM Audio monitoring systems.

Analog, AES3 and Immersive Modes Expand Routing Options

Dual XLR/TRS analog inputs, dual XLR outputs and AES3 digital input and output support conventional studio wiring and digital monitor chains at up to 24-bit/96kHz. Stereo mode handles standard 2.1 monitoring, dedicated LFE mode applies a 120Hz cutoff for immersive workflows such as Dolby Atmos, and Wide mode allows full-range subwoofer operation when bass management is handled elsewhere. Selectable crossover and phase settings, along with footswitch bass-management bypass, help engineers integrate and audition the ADAM Audio Sub8 PRO 8" powered studio subwoofer across stereo and multichannel monitoring systems.
