  • B&W 600 Series 8" 200W Powered Subwoofer

Q: Any minimum requirement for receiver which we have to choose for this sub?

A: We recommend using a receiver with either subwoofer or pre-outputs to attach the ASW608.

Q: What is range?

A: undefined

Q: By chance does Bowers & Wilkins have a sub woofer that is blue tooth that doesn’t have to be hardwired?

A: We do not, but there are after-market bluetooth transmitters available that can be added to any subwoofer to make it wireless.

Q: What kind of subwoofer cable do you all recommend for this?

A: Any subwoofer cable will work, but something a little nicer like the AudioQuest Black Lab cable would be better

Q: Is this sub car friendly? I'd like to have one installed in mine. I love your products!

A: Not at all. You'd need to get a power inverter just to use it and it's not going to put out the loudness necessary compared to a dedicated car audio subwoofer. What's more, you can get a really decent car sub and amp for this kind of money...

Q: Is the Bowers & Wilkins -600 series "8 sub woofer Weatherproof

A: Not at all. It's laminate on wood with a cloth grill that won't protect against the elements whatsoever, plus the cone is made of paper. Moisture would absolutely destroy this subwoofer, plus the back plate amp isn't protected from the elements and would short out as well from a mild rain...B&W offers the AM-1 speakers however which put out really great bass if you're wanting a B&W product for the outdoors. Otherwise there are dedicated outdoor subwoofers.

  • Rated 5 out of 5 stars

    Novice Audiophile review.

    Perfect size for my IKEA cubicle,and bedroom...I have this paired with the Bowers & Wilkins - 4" 100W Satellite Speaker and the Bowers & Wilkins - 600 Series Anniversary Edition 2-way Bookshelf Speaker w/6.5" midbass and it really adds the low end those were missing.Now I feel the bass and it is so good.I am a novice Audiophile and recently came into a little cash so decided to splurge a bit.My one complaint is the price seems a bit on the high side,although it is a quality piece of gear,I feel like a 100 dollars cheaper would be a better price.
