Designed to supplement the Bowers & Wilkins 801 D4 and 802 D4 tower loudspeakers in stereo and multichannel systems, the company's DB1D subwoofer doubles as an explosive box of speed, energy, and might. The most powerful active sub the English manufacturer has ever made, the 95-pound DB1D leverages the strength of a 2000W Class D Hypex amplifier and a pair of 12-inch Aerofoil cone drivers in balanced configuration to supply taut, deep, and focused low-end information — as well as fill out critical details in musical programs. When it comes to enhancing movies, television, and sporting events, the ultra-efficient DB1D helps sit you in the producer's chair.
Combining 2000 watts of digital amplification with twin balanced Aerofoil™ drivers for incredible low-end power and speed, DB1D is the best Bowers & Wilkins subwoofer.
Diamond bass
Powerful amplification and ultra-fast Aerofoil™ drivers: a perfect partner for the acclaimed 800 Series Diamond speakers.
A smarter approach to bass
DB1D's 2000 Watt amplifier and 12-in drivers are controlled by intelligent processing for best-in-class bass delivery.
Nimble and powerful
Solid, dramatic bass is delivered through the rigidity and lightness of the uniquely-shaped, variable thickness Aerofoil™ cone.
A question of balance
The back-to-back (opposed) drivers cancel out cabinet resonances, ensuring all that power is used to create room-shaking bass, not wasted vibrations.
The digital advantage
Digital amplification is cool-running and energy efficient, even when working hard, while Dynamic EQ and Room EQ ensure a precise sound for music and movies.
Take control
By placing control in the palm of your hand, our subwoofer app not only makes our DB Series subwoofers a snap to set up, it also helps maximize your sound quality.
Designed to deliver
DB1D’s ultra-rigid, highly damped enclosure channels all its energy into explosive, tightly-controlled bass.
The secrets to DB1D's authoritative performance reside within its intelligent build, advanced materials, and forward-thinking architecture — many aspects of which are borrowed from the 800 Series Diamond. Take the light and ultra-stiff Aerofoil drivers, which resist bending and flexing while playing with complete control and outstanding precision. Or the opposed, balanced configuration of the bass cones, an approach that lessens cabinet vibration, reduces coloration, and increases clarity. Preamplification in the cool-running DB1D comes courtesy of Dynamic EQ plus automatic calibration and equalization, ensuring consistency and clean delivery.
