Lyngdorf BW-3
Best compact subwoofer for audiophiles seeking powerful bass in small spaces.
This subwoofer proves that deep, authoritative bass doesn't require a bulky cabinet. By packing a 400W amplifier into a tiny seven-liter frame, it sacrifices the sheer room-shaking scale of massive subs for a level of placement flexibility that finally lets you hide your audio gear in plain sight.
