10. Kenwood - KSC-PSW7EQ 8.25" x 5.5" 80 watt Powered Subwoofer - Black

The Kenwood KSC-PSW7EQ is a compact, powered subwoofer intended to achieve high-performance, high-power bass without sacrificing space. Considering versatility and convenience, this might be the best sub for consumers who want meaningful sound but do not want a big setup. Because of its small size, it fits under car seats or in minute storage spaces. The sub-amp combo is fitted with an advanced Class D amplifier, greatly increasing this subwoofer's thumping RMS power to 80 watts and going all the way up to 160 watts at peak. This compact-size amplifier provides neat, rich bass; enriching your sound without distortion at higher volumes. Because of the efficient amplifier design, there is reduced heat build-up, enabling the unit to perform for extended periods. The KSC-PSW7EQ features an 8.25 x 5.5-inch aluminum diaphragm. While this special material increases clarity and responsiveness of the sound for the diaphragm, this subwoofer is able to produce deep bass tones that are accurate, with less reverberation. In simpler words, from a listening perspective, each beat and bassline thumps with clarity and weight. Kenwood also includes a wired remote with this model for tailoring the listening experience and putting all the useful adjustments at your fingertips. The remote will allow you to adjust volume to taste, vary the low-pass crossover frequency from 50 to 125 Hz, and alter the signal phase (0° or 180°) to best match your system's setup. It also introduces three various EQ presets: Heavy, Flat, and Tight, over the remote for easy switching between a range of sound profiles according to preference or by genre. Be it the most bass-heavy beats that one enjoys or a sound full of balance, the KSC-PSW7EQ adjusts with ease to whatever anyone may want. Equipped with an RCA preamp and speaker-level inputs, it works nice with everything from factory-installed setups to aftermarket configurations. In that respect, it excels at fitting most vehicle models, whether you are working with a simple audio setup or a customized sound system. The auto-sensing turn-on feature with speaker-level inputs will automatically power on upon detection of audio for further simplification of the operation. Measuring a slight 11.03 inches wide by 2.75 inches high and 7.875 inches deep, the KSC-PSW7EQ can fit into spaces no other subwoofer could dream of fitting into. With this space-saving design, it allows for even more discreet under-seat or any other tight-space installations. It is perfect for use in smaller vehicles or by users that desire a minimalist aesthetic. The metal used is impact-resistant but lightweight, taking the subwoofer enclosure through daily stresses with ease, yet remaining sleek. The KSC-PSW7EQ falls in the range of 40-200 Hz, operating within that vital low-end spectrum that gives weight to any track. From smooth jazz up to thumping electronic music, this in-car subwoofer range brings a new dimension to your car audio setup by filling in the bass most standard speakers miss. From the commuter who just wants a better drive to and from work each day to the audiophile who wants even more immersive sound, the Kenwood KSC-PSW7EQ offers up an impressively versatile, high-quality bass solution in an impossibly sleek and compact form. With powerful, adjustable, and easy installation, here is one outstanding choice for someone wanting a new system for their vehicle.
