Audioengine S8 (S8)
Audioengine S8 - Premium Powered Subwoofer
Excellent performance for music, movies, and games. Audioengine S8 is the
perfect bass extension for Audioengine powered speakers or as an upgrade to any
music system. Super compact size and wireless-ready.
Upgrade your audio
At about 11" square with an 8" custom woofer, this powered subwoofer is small
enough to place in a corner or hide behind furniture. The S8 delivers great
bass performance and it's low, tight, and smooth bass will blend well with
the other speakers in your system.
Custom Woofer
The S8 has a super-fast woofer designed for audio and home theater
performance. It features an anti-resonant steel frame and heavy-duty rubber
speaker surround for accurate low end. The S8's bottom-firing and
front-ported design means you'll hear quick, precise bass with low
distortion, even at higher volume levels. In other words, this is a tight,
smooth, and natural-sounding little subwoofer.
Furniture-Grade Finish
Custom-designed and handcrafted wood cabinets with high-gloss white or satin
black finish make the Audioengine S8 a true work of art. Cabinets are made of
rock solid 1-inch thick, internally braced MDF to eliminate cabinet
vibrations which means distortion-free, accurate response.
Wireless-ready!
If you decide to locate the Audioengine S8 away from your powered speakers or
surround sound AV receiver, check out the Audioengine W1 wireless audio
adapter or Apple’s Airport Express for high-quality wireless options.
The S8 has a built-in AC outlet on the rear panel that’s perfect for
powering these great-sounding wireless products.
High Power Amplifier
With plenty of continuous class A/B power, the S8 internal amplifier has a
dual-voltage switch and detachable
power cord.
Easy Connections
Dual line-level inputs (1/8" mini-jack and RCA connectors) are included on
the rear panel so connecting S8 to all your gear is easy. And all cables
you'll need are included.
Versatile Yet Simple Controls
Variable adjustable rear panel controls for Crossover, Phase, and Subwoofer
Volume allow you to easily adjust the S8's output and blending with your
speakers. An auto-sleep standby feature turns the S8 amplifier off when
you're not playing music.
Hear the Difference
The Audioengine S8 sets a new level of audio and aesthetic quality. Even if
you're not an audio enthusiast, we guarantee you will still hear a
difference!

FAQs:
Can I use the P4 passive speakers with the Audioengine S8 sub?
To use the P4 speakers with the S8 you would need an amp, like our N22, to supply power to the P4 speakers and connect to the S8.
How do I control the overall volume of my S8
subwoofer and A5 speakers together?
The overall volume of the speakers and subwoofer are controlled from the
source (your stereo, iPod, TV, etc.).
