Product Overview & Specifications
The Canton Reference SUB 50 Subwoofer is a high-output active subwoofer engineered to deliver deep, dynamic bass for both high-end stereo and immersive home theatre setups. Designed as a perfect acoustic and visual match for Canton's flagship Reference Series, it combines a front-firing 308 mm (12.1") Black Ceramic Tungsten (BCT) active woofer with an equally sized down-firing passive radiator inside a high-volume enclosure, achieving deep bass extension down to 18 Hz.
Driven by a powerful digital amplifier delivering up to 750 Watts of music power, the SUB 50 utilizes DSP processing and Canton's Room Compensation technology with 3-stage acoustic adjustments to optimize low-frequency performance in any listening environment. Both the active driver and passive radiator are suspended in triple-folded Wave surrounds to allow extended linear excursion with minimal harmonic distortion. The rear control panel provides continuous adjustment over volume, crossover frequency, and phase, alongside both high-level and low-level inputs for flexible system integration.
