Combining advanced DSP with powerful low-frequency reproduction, the Sub10 PRO provides a solid foundation for stereo and multi-channel monitoring. As part of ADAM Audio's latest generation of networked subwoofers, it pairs a high-excursion 10-inch woofer with an FEA-optimised bass port and a high-performance Class D amplifier to deliver tightly controlled bass.
A comprehensive range of professional connectivity and control options can be found on the Sub10 PRO's backplate. Alongside precise phase and crossover adjustment, it provides AES3 digital I/O, balanced analog I/O via XLR and TRS, and a dedicated footswitch input for activating or bypassing bass management.
Network connectivity facilitates extensive management and calibration options through ADAM Control, the dedicated software for networked ADAM Audio products. Users can time-align the subwoofer, fine-tune its response across four bands of parametric EQ, and run Sonarworks calibration profiles directly on its integrated platform.
The Sub10 PRO offers three operating modes to accommodate different monitoring applications. Stereo provides straightforward routing for conventional 2.1 systems, while the dedicated LFE setting is optimized for immersive workflows such as Dolby Atmos.
ADAM Control
ADAM Control is the calibration and management platform for all networked ADAM Audio products. The extensive tuning and phase controls of the Sub10 PRO can be attenuated remotely and in real time over Ethernet. ADAM Control also facilitates firmware updates, allowing new features to be added to the Sub10 PRO over time.
High-Performance Woofer
The heart of the Sub10 Pro is its high-excursion, low-distortion woofer. Made from a fiber-reinforced paper material, the cone further strengthened by an elasticated rubber surround that permits considerable excursion while maintaining its mechanical design.
Digital Connectivity
AES3 is a professional standard for transmitting digital audio between interfaces and loudspeakers. Both the AES3 input and output connectors on the Sub10 PRO can carry 2 channels of digital audio up to 24-bit resolution and sample rates of 96 kHZ. By maintaining signal in the digital domain fewer conversions are required and higher quality audio can be transmitted over longer distances.
Powerful Amplification and Unfaltering DSP
The Sub10 PRO features a Class D amplifier that drives the woofer in a highly efficient manner at all listening levels. A smartly designed limiter works in tandem with the amp so the woofer can be driven to its extremes while always protecting the circuitry and mechanical components. The amplifier and limiter are managed by DSP-based electronics which benefit from consistent crossovers, filters, and equalization.
Multi-channel Ready
Alongside the Sonarworks platform for multichannel calibration, the Sub10 PRO offers two operational modes that were designed for immersive audio. LFE mode features a specifically designed 120 Hz cutoff that conforms to Dolby’s advice for LFE channels in Atmos systems. Wide mode allows the subwoofer to play full range, offering the maximum amount of flexibility for bass management elsewhere in the chain.
Berlin Industrial Design, Robust Cabinet and Grille
The Sub10 PRO features classic ADAM Audio design with a speckled finish to the bass port and matching curvature throughout. The cabinet is constructed from thick, vibration-resistant MDF wood that contributes to reducing unwanted resonances. There is additional bracing to support the port, and the woofer features a steel grille which protects the woofer when placed under desks.
