SUBWOOFERS

Why Choose a JBL Subwoofer?

JBL subwoofers are crafted with superior engineering to deliver deep, distortion-free bass. They also seamlessly integrate with JBL soundbars and are compatible with many home theatre systems. For the discerning audiophile, JBL also offers wireless subwoofers for a convenient, clean, and clutter-free setup.

Types of JBL Subwoofers

Powered vs. Passive Subwoofers

Active, or powered, subwoofers have a built-in amplifier, making them self-contained and convenient for plug-and-play use. Passive subwoofers, on the other hand, rely on an external amplifier to provide power. A soundbar with a built-in subwoofer is an example of a powered subwoofer system.

Wireless Subwoofers

Wireless subwoofers eliminate the need for long cables, allowing for a clean and flexible setup. JBL’s wireless technology ensures seamless audio synchronisation with your soundbar or home cinema system.

10-inch vs. 12-inch Subwoofers

10-inch subwoofers generally offer tighter, more controlled bass, suitable for smaller rooms. Meanwhile, 12-inch subwoofers deliver deeper, more powerful bass, ideal for larger spaces where you want to feel the rumble.

Perfect Pairing: JBL Soundbars & Subwoofers

JBL subwoofers are designed to complement JBL soundbars, creating a truly theatre-like experience in your home. Models like the JBL Cinema SB550 feature a wireless subwoofer, while the JBL Cinema SB140 comes as a soundbar and subwoofer combination with a wired subwoofer.

Frequently Asked Questions About JBL Soundbars and Subwoofers
