Why the DB2D is Exceptional

If you are serious about deep, articulate bass for both music and cinema, the DB2D represents the pinnacle of subwoofer engineering. This is not just a subwoofer—it is a precision bass instrument capable of reaching down to 10Hz while maintaining extraordinary clarity, speed, and control.

Powered by a 1000-watt Hypex Class-D amplifier and using the same 10-inch Aerofoil™ drivers found in the flagship 800 Series loudspeakers, the DB2D delivers tremendous output with exceptional control and speed that lesser subwoofers simply cannot match.

Advanced Engineering & Technology

Dual Aerofoil™ Driver Configuration

The DB2D employs two 10-inch Aerofoil™ drivers in a balanced back-to-back opposed configuration. This is the same driver technology used in Bowers & Wilkins' legendary 800 Series loudspeakers, renowned worldwide for their transparency and accuracy.

The opposed driver architecture ensures that all the energy goes into bass output rather than cabinet vibration, resulting in tighter, faster, and deeper bass performance. Cabinet resonances are effectively canceled, allowing the drivers to work with maximum efficiency and minimal distortion.

1000-Watt Hypex Class-D Amplification

The DB2D's Hypex Class-D amplifier delivers massive dynamic authority with exceptional efficiency. This is not generic Class-D amplification—Hypex represents the pinnacle of switching amplifier technology, combining the power and efficiency of Class-D with the sonic refinement typically associated with linear designs.

Benefits:

  • Massive headroom for effortless dynamic peaks
  • Ultra-low distortion across the entire frequency range
  • Exceptional transient response and speed
  • Cool, efficient operation with no thermal compression
  • Instantaneous power delivery for explosive impact

Intelligent DSP & Room Optimization

The DB2D features sophisticated digital signal processing that allows precise optimization for your room and system. Using the Bowers & Wilkins subwoofer control app (Bluetooth), the DB2D can be quickly tuned for perfect integration.

DSP Features:

  • Dynamic EQ: Automatically adjusts response based on listening level
  • Room EQ Optimization: Compensates for room modes and acoustic anomalies
  • Preset System Profiles: Quick setup for different speaker configurations
  • Bluetooth App Control: Simple, intuitive setup and tuning from your smartphone
  • Phase Adjustment: Ensures perfect time-alignment with main speakers
  • Crossover Control: Precise integration point adjustment

This intelligent processing allows the DB2D to deliver perfect integration with your loudspeakers and room acoustics, ensuring seamless bass extension that sounds like a natural continuation of your main speakers.

Ideal Applications

Two-Channel Music Systems

The DB2D excels in serious two-channel systems where speed, articulation, and tonal accuracy are paramount. Whether you're listening to orchestral works that demand deep organ pedal extension, electronic music with complex low-frequency layering, or jazz with tight, punchy upright bass, the DB2D delivers bass that is fast, articulate, and musically coherent.

Perfect pairings:

  • Bowers & Wilkins 800 Series (seamless integration with matching drivers)
  • Bowers & Wilkins 700 Series (elevates performance to reference levels)
  • High-resolution bookshelf monitors requiring deep bass extension
  • Planar and electrostatic speakers needing dynamic bass foundation

Reference Home Theater

For home theater applications, the DB2D provides explosive impact and deep extension that brings movie soundtracks to life. From the rumble of distant thunder to the concussive force of action sequences, the DB2D delivers visceral, room-shaking bass with precision and control.

The opposed driver design ensures that bass energy is directed into the room, not into your floor and walls, resulting in cleaner, more articulate low-frequency reproduction even at high output levels.

System Integration & Connectivity

Professional-Grade Inputs

  • XLR Balanced Inputs: Professional-grade connectivity for high-end systems, superior noise rejection
  • RCA Unbalanced Inputs: Standard connectivity for most AV receivers and processors
  • 12V Trigger: Automatic on/off with your system components
  • RS-232 Control: Integration with whole-home automation systems

Flexible Placement Options

The DB2D's compact footprint (14.8" Ă— 14.2") and sophisticated DSP make it easy to integrate into virtually any room. The Room EQ optimization compensates for boundary effects, allowing flexible placement while maintaining optimal performance.
