Wharfedale UPC-8 Active subwoofer

Wharfedale UPC-8 Active subwoofer

The Middle sub in the series is for those who take home cinema a little more seriously and require a little more punch than the UPC-6 but not something that will bring down the house around them. With an 8" cone and a 350w output, this will easily fill a larger room without overpowering the rest of your set-up.

With Wharfedale’s long history and experience in large and long-throw driver design, they have now given life to a new range of subwoofers, the Ultra Powercube Series or UPC for short. This active subwoofer range is perfect for any Home Cinema setup and offers massively improved bass performance, it also integrates flawlessly with other speakers in the market.

Wharfedale’s UPC Series is a complete subwoofer solution for a variety of system. The built-in power amplifier as used in every model is capable of producing extended subsonic with complete precision and clarity. The push x 2 design philosophy is unique in the subwoofer range. A continuously variable crossover range adjustment provides seamless integration with the other speakers in the system, while a variable phase adjustment facilitates perfect subwoofer/room interface. These functions can be accomplished by activating a menu switch on the back panel or via remote operation. One bass unit is front firing, the other is rear firing. They are in phase and push together. The advantage of these two drivers is a) a larger cone area for a minimal enclosure size; b) force cancellation, In addition, there is an LCD display which allows more user-friendly selection in combination with the remote control. It also contains the all-new movie and night mode, which can be selected remotely. We hope they give you much pleasure.
