“Transient impact was extraordinary; the dynamic
envelope of low-frequency sounds was tight, clean,
and articulate…. In addition, bass extension was
outstanding; this woofer extended to subterranean
depths and maintained its composure…. It combines
first-rate musicality and exceptional delicacy with a
bottom-end solidity and power that was fully up to the
j
ob of reproducing today’s dynamic soundtracks.”
Robert Harley, The Perfect Vision

“No matter what I threw at it, the S4/8 was absolutely
unflappable. No histrionics, no distortion, just
excellent clean bass. There was no getting this
subwoofer to lose its composure.”
