Datasheet

The PMC8 SUB is a true low-frequency reference
monitor which extends the bass response of your
speaker system, imparting more of our signature
ultra-clean, ultra-fast low end to any setup. It can be
used as a compact stand-alone subwoofer within
conventional multichannel systems, or as an XBD
cabinet (and stand), creating a full-range PMC6
XBD mideld monitor. When used in this way, the
dedicated ‘XBD’ DSP mode marries the speakers
and sub unit together, creating a coherent full-range
system. Our sub units are also perfectly suited to use
in multi-channel and immersive systems, as our ATL
™
bass-loading technology provides a gentler low-
order LF roll-off than conventional ported cabinets,
allowing a smoother, seamless integration between
the height and surround channels and the sub.
Featuring one custom eight-inch long-throw bass-
driver, the PMC8 SUB is powered by a single 300W
Class-D amplier and controlled by the same
powerful DSP engine as our other active models.
DSP facilities include sophisticated room boundary
equalisation options, parametric EQ, time delay,
phase inversion, and the unique XBD mode, all
congured via the loudspeaker’s rear panel or the
browser-based SoundAlign software.
