Bowers & Wilkins DB3D

Elite bass in a compact enclosure

There's generally a common downside to powered subwoofers that deliver titanic levels of bass — their size. Bowers & Wilkins has managed to break that mold with the DB3D. It's a little larger than one cubic foot in volume, but it packs two ultra-high-end 8" woofers driven by a 1,000 watt amp inside.

The DB3D complements Bowers & Wilkins suite of bookshelf and floor-standing speakers by delivering powerful, seamless bass without sonically standing apart from the rest of your system. It's an ideal choice for an audiophile-grade stereo or home theater system where space is at a premium.

Trickle-down woofer technology from world-class speakers    

The DB3D is outfitted with two 8" woofers that fire in opposite directions, giving you evenly distributed, room-filling bass. 

Each woofer uses the same highly acclaimed Aerofoil™ driver material found in Bowers & Wilkins' 800 Series Diamond speakers (world-class floor-standing speakers that sell for $30,000 a pair). 

These light, ultra-stiff drivers resist bending and flexing far more than conventional cones for incredibly deep and accurate bass.

Precise and powerful 

This sub can provide delicate low-frequency details, as well as tirelessly pound out deep bass at high output levels with next to no distortion. 

It can shake the house, certainly. But this sub's forté is creating lifelike bass with precision and control — all the way down to a staggeringly low 10 Hz. 

Tailor the sound to your room

The DB3D is set up and controlled entirely from the Bowers & Wilkins DB Subwoofers app. Using your tablet or smartphone's microphone, the app takes bass measurements to find acoustic irregularities and automatically applies correction.

The result? Smooth, well-balanced bass that's tailored to your specific room, furnishings, and audio system. A friendly heads-up: there are no sound controls on this sub; all adjustments are made via the app.
