Bowers & Wilkins · ASW Series
The ASW610 is Bowers & Wilkins' long-running 10-inch subwoofer: a long-throw driver, a 200-watt amplifier and a sealed cabinet that delivers tight, musical bass to 20 Hz for about the price of a pair of 607 S3s.
Price is for one subwoofer.

The story
The ASW610 is the subwoofer we most often add to a 600 Series system. Its 250 mm long-throw driver uses a paper-pulp, aramid-fiber and resin cone that stays stiff under load, and the closed-box cabinet keeps the bass fast and controlled rather than loose. A 200-watt Class D amplifier gives it comfortable headroom for music and film in small and medium rooms.
Controls are analog and easy: line and speaker-level inputs with separate level knobs, a variable 4th-order low-pass filter with bypass, three bass-extension positions, a bass roll-off alignment switch, phase and auto-sense standby. A 12 V trigger input lets a processor switch it on and off. In Matte Black or Matte White it disappears beside a pair of 606 S3 or 603 S3 speakers.
