Monacor SAM-1 Active Subwoofer Module, 120W Max 8ohm

With this active module developed in Germany, excellent subwoofer speaker systems for HiFi and home cinema can be built up in connection with the dual voice coil bass speakers (1 x 4Ω or 1 x 8Ω) shown as follows as well as with all other high-quality bass speakers.

Powerful active module of highest operating reliability due to jumpers suitable for subwoofers (12dB slope) and full range speaker systems, continuously adjustable phase control, ground lift switch of the professional technology against hum interference, 24dB subsonic filter, automatic switch-on system and extensive protective circuits (short circuit, overheating and DC voltage overload). With the usual modern music material and a crossover frequency below 100Hz, the power of the SAM-1 for the bass range corresponds to a total amplifier power for the full frequency range of several hundred watts.
