A 3-way column PA with deep bass and crystal-clear highs.
The BASSBOSS Sublim8 column PA speaker with 18" subwoofer in black, is a 3-way active system that brings big venue power to smaller spaces. This setup combines a dual 8" column top with a full 18" subwoofer, giving events the kind of impact and clarity usually reserved for permanent installs. The system runs on 4000W of Class-D power, delivering deep lows down to 35Hz and crystal-clear highs. Fast setup with a dolly cart and the "Par-ty Con" par light mount makes the Sublim8 useful for mobile DJs or event crews who need show-ready sound in minutes. The unit's slim, stealthy look hides serious output, supporting high-energy gatherings where bass and clean vocals matter most.
Three-Way Active System Delivers Powerful Sound
This BASSBOSS speaker system uses separate channels for bass, mids and highs, each powered by its own amplifier. The 18" neodymium subwoofer pushes air for hard-hitting kick drums and dance tracks. Two 8" mid drivers cover spoken word and vocals without distortion, while the 3" diaphragm driver keeps cymbals and strings sharp. The DSP uses high and low-pass filters and EQ to balance every sound source. DJs and event techs get headroom and clarity that keep the mix tight at high volume. The result is a PA setup that handles demanding gigs where every detail needs to be heard.
Custom DSP Presets Enhance Live Sound Control
The onboard DSP runs at a 96kHz sample rate and stores up to 100 user presets. Eight push-button factory options let you flip between common setups fast. Phase alignment keeps the sound in sync, while multi-stage limiting protects the speakers from sudden spikes. Using the front panel, you can shape the EQ or change crossover points for different rooms or crowds. This level of control means the unit adapts to big halls, school gyms or house-of-worship installs without fuss. Every feature works to keep audio clean and strong, even when the room changes.
Quick Setup With Mobile Cart and Smart Cabling
The system stacks together using a vented, direct-radiating sub with an interlocking top socket. Six integrated handles and a wheel cart make it easy for one person to move. Cable pathways run inside the structure for a clean, safe stage. The "Par-ty Con" light mount gives mobile DJs a way to add a par light with no truss. XLR inputs and outputs, plus a Neutrik powerCON, support pro audio gear for fast connection. The design lets crews set up or break down in minutes, keeping events on schedule when time is tight.
Durable Construction Extends Speaker Lifespan
BASSBOSS builds the enclosure from CNC-machined birch plywood, braced inside for extra strength. The textured polyurea coating and steel grille protect against rain, bumps or rough handling. Handles are built in for easy lifts, and the whole system locks together for transport. The waterproof finish and powder-coated hardware keep the cabinet looking sharp after repeated use. This focus on build quality means the unit stands up to heavy touring or daily use in busy venues.
Real-World Suitability: Sublim8 Powers Large Events Reliably
Event crews, mobile DJs and venue managers who need massive sound in a portable rig will find this BASSBOSS system fits the bill. The ability to move, set up and tear down fast means more time spent focusing on music and guests, not gear. With deep bass, crisp highs and a build that stands up to real-world abuse, the Sublim8 makes sure crowds hear—and feel—every beat at any event.
