McIntosh's new powered subwoofer promises ground-shaking bass at a wallet-trembling price

The McIntosh PS1K powered subwoofer in a modern minimalist room with wood panelling.

McIntosh has announced its latest powered subwoofer, the PS1K, which is set to deliver "unmatched bass precision and power". This specialist sub has been designed for audiophiles and home cinema purists who have an unwavering dedication to bass and pockets deeper than their desired frequencies.

The PS1K features two 13-inch McIntosh-designed drivers which use the company's proprietary Low Distortion High Performance (LD/HP) Magnetic Circuit Design. McIntosh claims that his unique structure can reduce distortion and improve power handling, while the multi-layer carbon fibre cones resist flex even at high outputs. which should result in superior clarity and rigidity.
