Best subwoofers

Powered subwoofers in the catalog, newest first.

A subwoofer handles the lowest frequencies and takes strain off the rest of your system. Choose by room size, placement flexibility and whether it connects wirelessly to your soundbar or receiver. Placement matters as much as the model.

Questions people ask

Where should I put a subwoofer?

Try several spots. Corners boost bass, and the best place is often found by moving it while listening.

Do I need one with a soundbar?

Only if the bar’s bass is not enough. Some bars add a matching sub.

Wired or wireless?

Wireless is easier, but check that it works with your system.
