What to look for in powered subwoofers

1. Size

The size of the subwoofer can greatly impact the bass output and quality. Larger subwoofers typically produce deeper bass, but may be harder to accommodate in smaller spaces.

2. Power Rating

Check the RMS power rating, which represents continuous power handling. A higher RMS rating indicates a more powerful and louder subwoofer.

3. Frequency Range

The frequency range gives you an idea of how low a subwoofer can play. Lower frequencies mean deeper bass.

4. Enclosure Type

The enclosure or box that houses the subwoofer can affect sound quality. Sealed boxes deliver deep, accurate bass while ported and bandpass enclosures provide more volume.
