Sub B1.28 – Best purchase
NEW ZEALAND: FFWD, september 2005
“We’ve yet to hear a speaker or subwoofer from Swedish manufacturer
Audio Pro that hasn’t performed beyond our expectations, and this one is no
exeption. The B1.28 is a small unit when stood next to the other competitors
in this roundup and yet it somehow manages to sound much larger than it
actually is - it’s a perfect choice for small and medium-sized rooms.”
“The ace-bass really works some magic here. And boy if
it isn’t ever the Harry Potter of the subwoofer world - this
tiny sub produces some prodigious bass.”
“Audio Pro lists a flat frequency response of 27-100Hz
(what we would call a true reading, meaning it measures
flat to 27Hz then starts to roll off) while others list frequency
response as low as 19 Hz. This may appear better than the
Audio Pro on paper, but in reality that 19 Hz measurement
is so low it’s almost inaudible.”
“The B1.28 was musically unmatched for two reasons.
Firstly, bass response was so incredibly tight and deep it
really must be heard to be believed, especially from such a
small box. And secondly, it integrated so sweetly with the
mains that it simply blended into the mix so we weren’t
sure exactly when the main speakers rolled off and the
subwoofer took over - the ultimate goal of any subwoofer
designer.”
“It’s small, easy to place, has a full complement of line-
level and speaker-level inputs and outputs and what’s
more, it’s a bargain.”
Conclusion
“Music lovers, will prefer the deeper bass of the true per-
former in this roundup, the Audio Pro B1.28.”
