Overview

The Monoprice 109723 12-Inch Powered Subwoofer is designed to bring impactful low-frequency reproduction to home audio and theater systems without a premium price tag. Its 12-inch driver is powered by a built-in amplifier rated at 150 watts RMS with 200-watt peak capability, producing bass across a 50 to 250 Hz frequency response range. The wooden cabinet construction helps reduce unwanted resonance and provides a solid foundation for the driver, while the black finish keeps the unit visually unobtrusive in most room setups.

Connectivity is a strong point for this subwoofer. It offers both high-level speaker wire inputs and line-level RCA inputs, so it can pair with virtually any receiver or amplifier — whether your system has a dedicated subwoofer output or not. Corresponding high-level and line-level outputs are also provided for daisy-chaining or passing the signal through to additional equipment. The adjustable low-pass crossover filter lets you set the upper frequency boundary so the subwoofer blends cleanly with your main speakers, and the auto-on function automatically wakes the unit from standby when it detects signal, then returns to low-power mode during periods of silence. Protected by a 2-amp/250-volt fuse, the 109723 is a practical and capable subwoofer for budget-conscious listeners building or upgrading a home audio system.
