THE SB-A
The subwoofer bypass for audio professionals, artists, and passionate audio lovers
The subwoofer bypass for audio professionals, artists, and passionate audio lovers
The Subwoofer Bypasser for Active Subwoofers (SB-A) is a device that brings the sub-control section of the innovative R monitor controller into a standalone unit allowing you to combine your subwoofer with your studio monitors, bypass it or solo it, thanks to an original integration.
It is designed for users who don't have a monitor controller and want to integrate a subwoofer into their monitoring setup, those whose current controller lacks sub control, or those who already have sub control but are looking for a more intuitive and precise way to control their subwoofer, directly at their fingertips.
It is passive and built with the same high-quality components such as Neutrik and Mogami as its big brother, the R, to ensure a transparent sound, allowing you to work with confidence on your audio projects.
It allows you to connect one stereo source, one subwoofer, and one pair of active monitors. It can be connected to a monitor controller that supports multiple monitor pairs to enable you to pair your subwoofer with any selected pair of studio monitors. The SB-A is also compatible with digital monitors and allows you to connect them and the subwoofer using AES/EBU or S/PDIF.
Handmade with an authentic passion for sound in France.
