“With
these new stylishly-designed compact subwoofers, installers can place a high-powered,
highly attractive and easily concealed subwoofer virtually anywhere for a home
theater or home audio system,” said Paul Starkey, Chief Marketing Officer of
Niles. “These subwoofers outperform their larger rivals and offer superior sound
quality and design for all residential installations.”
The SW6.5’s and SW8’s ultra-compact
sizes and fingerprint-resistant piano-black finishes present an aesthetically
pleasing profile that is easy to blend into any décor. Pairing a long-throw front-firing woofer with
dual long-throw side-mounted passive radiators, the compact subwoofers deliver
the power of subwoofers four times their size, making them perfect for any
setup requiring more bass in less space.
In addition to the
designer-friendly features, the SW6.5 and SW8 have even more technical features
that make them perfect for the custom installation industry. They both feature automated turn-on via 12
volt trigger or audio signal sensing and include a built in CAT5 balun to
enable audio delivery over easy-to-use CAT5 cable. Additionally, both models come with a
built-in bracket-mount that is compatible with the optional OmniMount® 30.0 ST-MP to allow easy wall or ceiling
mounting, making it perfect for all residential installations. Installers can
further increase the subwoofers’ placement flexibility by going wireless with
the optional Niles SW-T wireless transceiver and SW-R receiver that easily
attaches to a built-in mounting port on the rear of the subwoofers.
As
for the audio, the SW6.5 produces 200W RMS power and up to 800W peak power
through a 6.5” active driver and two 6.5” passive radiators with a frequency
response of 42-200Hz. This unbelievable power is delivered from a cabinet that
is smaller than 10 inches-cubed and weighs only 11 pounds.
The
SW8 ups the ante, producing 300W RMS power and up to 1200W peak power through
an 8” active driver and two 8” passive radiators with a frequency response of
36-200Hz. Once again, this room-filling
bass performance comes from an amazingly small cabinet about 12 inches-cubed
that weighs only 16.5 pounds.
The
subwoofer’s long throw active drivers feature a black anodized aluminum cone
that provides superior rigidity compared to conventional paper cone
designs. The dual anodized aluminum cone
passive radiators provide additional driver surface area that combine with the
active driver to produce higher output than a larger single active driver. Both models include both LFE and stereo line
level inputs and unbuffered stereo pass-through line outputs, allowing up to
four subwoofers to be wired from a single receiver output. The adjustable
frequency control features a bypass positions, eliminating low pass filtering
within the subwoofer, and variable phase control (0°-180°) allows for precise phase
matching with the main speakers.
