PMC Loudspeakers PMC 8-2 SUB Active Subwoofer

The PMC8-2 SUB is an active subwoofer with 2 x 8 inch bass unit for use as dedicated sub or to complete a single channel of a 6-2 or 8-2 XBD system.

The PMC Loudspeakers PMC8-2 SUB is a larger subwoofer for full-bandwidth, high-resolution reference monitoring in the most demanding professional environments. A true low-frequency monitor like the PMC8 SUB, and offering the same DSP engine and seamless integration with surround and immersive systems, the PMC8-2 SUB betters the spec of its smaller sibling, offering higher maximum SPL output all the way down to 25Hz.

With the same dimensions as the PMC8-2 midfield monitor, the PMC8-2 SUB’s twin eight-inch bass drivers are powered by independent 400W Class-D amplifiers. PMC's sub units are also perfectly suited to use in multi-channel and immersive systems, as their 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. The same configuration options are available as on the PMC8 SUB, accessible on the speaker’s rear panel or by using the browser-based SoundAlign software via a LAN-connected tablet, smartphone or computer.

The PMC8-2 SUB can be used as a standalone subwoofer for multichannel and immersive sound systems, or as an XBD cabinet with either PMC6-2 or PMC8-2 monitors, creating a system of awesome power and dynamic range. The sub is available in either left- or right-handed cabinet versions (PMC8-2 SUB-L or PMC8-2 SUB-R), to allow placement of the bass drivers on the outside edges of a stereo array, matching the arrangement of the main monitors.
