115 subwoofers in our rankings have a balanced XLR input. Most consumer home-theater subwoofers only offer unbalanced RCA, since a short run from a receiver’s LFE output rarely needs it. A balanced XLR input matters more once the cable run gets longer, or the sub sits in a system built around balanced gear, like a preamp, a professional install, or a matched pair of studio monitors’ own XLR-equipped companion sub.
A subwoofer’s rank here reflects its measured output and extension, not the presence of this input. If you want an XLR input specifically weighed against performance rather than just listed, see our curated best subwoofers with an XLR input picks instead.
This is every match, grouped by size and sorted by measured performance.
