B&W AS1 Subwoofer

The model AS1 by B&W differs by high and narrow body. The controls are placed on the upper wall for convenience and sunk in a rectangular niche. At the front the bass-reflex immediately catches the eye. The surface of the socket end reminds the surface of the golf ball that helps to make air flow more uniform and noiseless. 165mm speaker is also located at the front and sunk into the panel for two cm. What about controls, there are only volume and "movie/music" switch.

Sound. A compact subwoofer penetrates into the depths surprisingly deeply. The system is inferior to some competitors by energetics and pressure, but takes precedence over many due to the level of structuring of low-frequency material. This is one of the most musical models. Working at 2.1 system and playing both cinema and any musical material, B&W always sounds nattily, structured, compact and weighty. Not the first extension of the range down was provided that was perceived as enriching of sound. I need to make a slip in speaking: satellites (shelf) should be of the appropriate class: ideally, of B&W.
