Know before you buy
The Core SUB is capable of reaching down to 15 Hz, with a 6dB roll-off at 13.5 Hz. This allows you to monitor sub-bass frequencies that are often missing from standard studio setups.
No, the Core SUB is a self-powered unit. It features dual 500-watt Pascal class-D amplifiers, providing a total of 1,000 watts to drive its four 9-inch woofers.
The Core SUB is essentially the performance equivalent of two Sub 6 units housed in a single, robust enclosure. It is specifically engineered to provide the massive air movement and power required for high-end professional monitoring.
Given its weight of 108 lbs and its design as a floorstanding unit, you will need a stable, dedicated space on your studio floor. It is designed for freestanding use, so ensure your floor can support the weight and that you have enough clearance for the four 9-inch woofers to perform optimally.
The Core SUB is designed to integrate seamlessly with high-end studio monitors, particularly those within the Dynaudio Core series. It is built to handle the demands of professional monitoring environments where precise, accurate low-frequency reproduction is essential.
