#8 Bowers & Wilkins DB3D: $4,500.00 each Bowers & Wilkins eBay
Pros: An exceptionally compact high-end subwoofer housing dual-opposed 8-inch Aerofoil cones with 1,000 watts of Class D amplification. Fits seamlessly into demanding decor while delivering tight, resonant-free bass down to 30Hz with Bluetooth BLE app control and automatic room EQ.
Cons: The 8-inch driver displacement limits deep sub-bass output below 30Hz; cannot pressurize large open-plan rooms.
How it compares: Just above it: Sony SA-CS9 - $4300 cheaper, 1.5dB more max output. Just below it: PreSonus Eris Sub 8BT - $4290 cheaper.
