Same family: the MartinLogan Abyss 8 (smaller subwoofer, ranked lower, estimated 3/5).

Pros: A compact sealed 10 inch subwoofer with two passive radiators, app control, wireless streaming and built in room correction. Independent CEA-2010 testing records 93.5 dB at 20 Hz and 106.4 dB through 40-80 Hz. The sealed enclosure combines a 10” active driver with dual 10” passive radiators in a compact 15” cube. Anthem Room Correction (ARC) and wireless streaming simplify integration.

Cons: Most controls, including low-pass frequency and phase, require the smartphone app, with sparse physical controls on the unit itself.

Is the MartinLogan Abyss 10 right for you?

  • you need to move it often (30 kg each).
  • you want the best value: the higher-rated Monoprice SW-12 costs about $1,155 less.
