Part of our modern range of networked subwoofers, the Sub8 PRO features a high-excursion 8” woofer, FEA-optimised bass reflex port and powerful class D amplifier. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe backplate of the Sub8 PRO highlights its professional, feature-rich nature. It offers comprehensive phase and crossover controls, digital input and output via AES3, balanced analog input and output via XLR and TRS, plus a footswitch input to activate or bypass bass management.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ethernet port enables a multitude of management and calibration tools for the Sub8 PRO via ADAM Control, the included application for networked ADAM Audio products. The subwoofer can be manually time aligned and calibrated across 4 bands of parametric EQ, and calibration profiles from Sonarworks can be uploaded directly to an integrated platform. Firmware updates are also managed via ADAM Control which allows future functionality to be added to the subwoofer.    \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to Stereo mode for conventional use, the Sub8 PRO features two operational modes that were designed with immersive audio in mind. The dedicated LFE mode is suited to mixing in Dolby Atmos, while the Wide option allows the sub to play full range. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll this technology is contained within a robust wooden cabinet while the woofer is protected by a solid metal grille. The Sub8 PRO comes with a 2-year warranty that can be extended to 5-years upon product registration.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eADAM Control\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eADAM Control is the calibration and management platform for all networked ADAM Audio products.

ADAM Control also facilitates firmware updates, allowing new features to be added to the Sub8 PRO over time. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAutomated Room Correction via Sonarworks\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Sub8 PRO is designed to complement ADAM Audio’s Sonarworks-ready, award-winning line of A Series monitors. It features a platform on the subwoofer’s DSP that can host advanced filters created in SoundID Reference. Using Sonarworks and a measurement mic, you can calibrate stereo and multichannel A Series and Sub8 PRO systems with ease.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHigh-Performance Woofer\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe heart of the Sub8 PRO is its high-excursion, low-distortion woofer. Made from a fibre-reinforced paper material, the cone is further strengthened by an elasticated rubber surround that permits considerable excursion while maintaining its mechanical design. The precision geometry of the ferrite magnet system is completed by demodulation rings which stabilise voice coil inductance. The considered design of the woofer extends to the advanced ventilation of all moving parts to minimize unwanted noise. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDigital Connectivity\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAES3 is a professional standard for transmitting digital audio between interfaces and loudspeakers. Both the AES3 input and output connectors on the Sub8 PRO can carry 2 channels of digital audio up to 24-bit resolution and sample rates of 96 kHZ. By maintaining signal in the digital domain fewer conversions are required and higher quality audio can be transmitted over longer distances.  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePowerful Amplification \u0026amp; Unfaltering DSP\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Sub8 PRO features a Class D amplifier that drives the woofer in a highly efficient manner at all listening levels. A smartly designed limiter works in tandem with the amp so the woofer can be driven to its full capabilities while always protecting the circuitry and mechanical components. The amplifier and limiter are managed by DSP-based electronics which benefit from consistent crossovers, filters, and equalization. Signal conversion is handled by audiophile-grade converters, carefully selected by ADAM Audio to deliver outstanding performance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFEA-Optimized Bass Port\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFinite Element Analysis is a computer-based simulator that was used to model airflow over the Sub8 PRO’s bass port. By creating thousands of samples of its surface and aggregating how forces affect it, the most efficient curvature, flaring, and effective length of the port could be calculated. This allowed us to achieve more consistent air speeds across the port length, which greatly reduces turbulence and results in impressive SPLs.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMultichannel Ready \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAlongside the Sonarworks platform for multichannel calibration, the Sub8 PRO offers two operational modes that were designed for immersive audio. LFE mode features a specifically designed 120 Hz cutoff that conforms to Dolby’s advice for LFE channels in Atmos systems. Wide mode allows the subwoofer to play full range, offering the maximum amount of flexibility for bass management elsewhere in the chain. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBerlin Industrial Design, Robust Cabinet \u0026amp; Grille \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Sub8 PRO features classic ADAM Audio design with a speckled finish to the bass port and matching curvature throughout. The cabinet is constructed from thick, vibration-resistant MDF wood that contributes to reducing unwanted resonances. There is additional bracing to support the port, and the woofer features a steel grille which protects the woofer when placed under desks.
