MARTINLOGAN ABYSS SUBWOOFERS

The MartinLogan Abyss Subwoofers are a new generation series designed for compact bass performance.

Nearly two decades ago, MartinLogan introduced the Abyss, a larger and more powerful successor to the original Dynamo subwoofer. The new ultra-compact design features an 8” or 10” Hybrid Woofer System, which combines an active Aluminium woofer with two Aluminium passive radiators. This design enhances output and reduces distortion akin to ported designs, yet preserves the compact size and tighter bass associated with sealed enclosures, MartinLogan tells us.

The Abyss 8 features the Magnitude 1kW amplifier with up to 1000W Peak (500W RMS), while the Abyss 10 has the Magnitude 1.6kW amplifier, delivering 1600W Peak (800W RMS) of bass.

Abyss is equipped with a class-leading 500MHz DSP with 64-bit processing and has a sealed, 1” thick MDF cabinet with centre brace and reinforced woofer baffles plus integrated anti-vibration feet.

MartinLogan Subwoofer Control App for iOS and Android allows ease of tuning and Abyss has an Integrated Wireless Receiver and Transmitter, plus both RCA and XLR LFE inputs, Stereo RCA inputs, Speaker Level inputs, and Sub Out connections. Simultaneous connections are also supported. Abyss supports Anthem Room Correction (ARC).
