{"product_id":"scansonichdmb10black","title":"Scansonic HD MB10 Active Subwoofer, Black (Single)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Scansonic HD MB10 is an active subwoofer with a downward-firing 10-inch driver and a Class A\/B amplifier – built for natural, precise bass rather than pure boom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn satin black, it stays visually restrained. Acoustically, it's anything but: when the film calls for it, it makes the room vibrate – and when you're listening to music, it holds back so discreetly that you only miss it when it's gone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the MB10?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost subwoofers rely on Class D amplifiers and equalizer circuits. Scansonic deliberately takes the other path: a Class A\/B amplifier, a lightweight 10-inch long-throw driver and a cabinet precisely tuned to match it – with no frequency equalizing at all. The result is bass that stays articulate and clean instead of booming.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat's exactly what makes the MB10 unusual: it's not just built for home cinema, it also complements a good stereo system without smothering it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you hear\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLows you feel more than you hear – controlled, fast and without any artificial boom. In film it delivers punch and level, in music it adds the foundation that many compact speakers lack down low. Via the adjustable frequency response (25–150 Hz) you match it to your main speakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is the MB10 suited for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor home cinema fans who want real depth, and for stereo listeners who want to extend their bookshelf speakers downward. Straight talk: if you already listen through large floorstanding speakers like the MB6 or MB8 B, you rarely need a sub for music – but in home cinema the MB10 still makes sense there too. For very large rooms, a second one is a welcome addition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA subwoofer that would rather be musical than loud – and precisely because of that, it also works in a stereo setup. We at HD Zürisee in Wädenswil help you with calibration, placement and matching it to your speakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical data\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Active subwoofer (MB series), downfire\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black (satin)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDriver:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1× 10″ long-throw driver (low-mass), downward-firing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAmplifier:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100 W RMS, Class A\/B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency response:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25 Hz – 150 Hz (adjustable)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e Line (RCA) and high-level input\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCabinet:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bass reflex, ported at the rear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePower consumption:\u003c\/strong\u003e Standby \u0026lt; 0.9 A; operation 10–300 W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (W×H×D):\u003c\/strong\u003e 360 × 418 × 360 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15.4 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded:\u003c\/strong\u003e one active subwoofer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the MB10 sold individually?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, the MB10 is a single active subwoofer, and the price applies per piece. One sub is enough for most rooms; in very large rooms, or for especially even bass, some people use two. We're happy to help you work out what makes sense for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the MB10 also suit a stereo system?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, that's actually one of its strengths. Thanks to the Class A\/B amplifier and tuning without an equalizer, it plays clean enough to musically extend compact or bookshelf speakers downward – not just for home cinema. It connects flexibly via the line and high-level inputs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I connect the MB10?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVia the line input (RCA) from the subwoofer output of your amplifier or AV receiver, or alternatively via the high-level input directly from the speaker terminals. We're happy to discuss which route is best for your system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere should I place the subwoofer?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MB10 fires downward and is therefore flexible to place. A position near a wall or in a corner boosts deep bass, while standing a bit more freely makes it more precise. The ideal position depends on the room – we support you during calibration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy the Scansonic HD MB10 from HD Zürisee?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause a subwoofer only shows its true potential with proper calibration. We at HD Zürisee in Wädenswil advise you on connection, placement and tuning to your speakers – and take care of delivery and installation on request.
