The16 Sub Passive VENTED – Ascendo

The16 Sub Passive VENTED – Ascendo

THE16 SUB ACTIVE SEALED adalah subwoofer aktif 16 inci yang menawarkan performa bass mendalam, hentakan kuat, dan respons ultra-cepat dengan harga terjangkau. Dirancang secara inovatif, subwoofer ini mampu memuat driver besar ke dalam sealed enclosure (boks tertutup) yang sangat ringkas, nyaris seukuran subwoofer 12 inci.

Fitur Utama:

  • Desain Driver 16″ Ringkas & Presisi: Menggunakan cone tiga lapis dengan inti Rohacell yang ringan namun kaku, serta motor magnet triple-stack. Memiliki pergerakan linear ekstrem (42mm Xmax) untuk menghasilkan bass yang akurat tanpa distorsi.

  • Tenaga Amplifier 1 kW: Didukung amplifier bertenaga 1000W (RMS) dengan suplai daya SMPS auto-sensing (110V-230V), memastikan performa dinamis yang bertenaga dan bersih.

  • Konektivitas & Kontrol Lengkap: Dilengkapi input LFE XLR balanced (tanpa pemrosesan untuk integrasi prosesor surround), dua input RCA dengan crossover variabel (50-150Hz), kontrol fase, kenop gain, serta input trigger 12V untuk otomatisasi daya yang aman.

Uncompromising Value & Power

Big Performance, Approachable Pricepoint

Building on the success of THE12 SUB ACTIVE, THE16 SUB ACTIVE SEALED was developed in direct response to customer and dealer demand for a larger active subwoofer at an approachable price point. The mission was clear: Deliver greater extension, exceptional punch, and lightning-fast response in a compact enclosure.

The result is a subwoofer that feels as powerful as it is precise. THE16 SUB ACTIVE SEALED delivers incredible performance for its size, combining speed, depth, and control in a way that must be experienced to be understood.

Compact Precision

16” Driver in a Small Enclosure

THE16 utilizes a sealed enclosure, chosen for its ability to deliver superior accuracy, transient response, and musicality. Despite housing a much larger driver, the enclosure remains remarkably compact, only slightly larger than THE12.


  • Extreme Linear Excursion: Engineered to fit in a space typically reserved for smaller designs, made possible through a high-roll, narrow surround capable of massive linear excursion with minimal distortion.

  • Triple-Layer Rohacell Cone: At the core is a sandwich cone with a Rohacell center, combining extreme stiffness and low mass for deeper extension and faster response.

  • Massive Magnetic Motor: A triple-stack magnet motor delivers the control needed for sealed performance, achieving an astonishing 42mm of linear excursion (Xmax) to move air effortlessly while staying composed.


Amplification & Integration

Power & Connectivity

Our amplifier section uses an auto-sensing SMPS power supply that supports worldwide mains voltages from 110V to 230V, ensuring clean and efficient power delivery anywhere in the world.


  • 1 kW (RMS) Amplification: Delivers massive output power with ample dynamic headroom to reproduce peak transients cleanly and without distortion.

  • Smart Power Control: Features an auto-sense function to turn the subwoofer on automatically (or remain on), plus a 12V trigger input for safe, processor-controlled power switching.

  • Versatile Inputs: Balanced XLR inputs for full-range LFE without processing, allowing the surround processor to handle bass management. Additionally, two RCA inputs feature a variable crossover (50-150Hz), phase control, and a precision gain knob for stereo applications.
