PMC 8-2 Sub Professional Active Subwoofer (left / right unit)

Absolute Low-End Authority

The PMC 8-2 SUB is a high-resolution, active low-frequency monitor engineered for the most demanding professional environments. Designed to deliver full-bandwidth accuracy, it is the ultimate tool for mixing, post-production, and immersive formats like Dolby Atmos. Whether used as a standalone subwoofer or integrated into a massive XBD system, it provides the uncompromising clarity required for critical monitoring.

Advanced Bass Loading with ATL™ and Laminair™
PMC’s legendary sound is rooted in Advanced Transmission Line (ATL™) technology, which manages energy more efficiently than standard ported designs. When paired with Laminair™ airflow technology, air noise is eradicated and timing is significantly improved. This translates to a low-frequency response that is tight, uncoloured, and detailed, allowing you to hear the smallest nuances in your sub-bass.

Massive Headroom for Dynamic Precision
Equipped with twin eight-inch studio drivers and independent 400W Class-D amplifiers, the PMC 8-2 SUB delivers 800W of total power. This configuration allows for a staggering 115dB of continuous SPL and response down to 25Hz. The result is a system with effortless headroom that handles modern high-resolution transients without distortion or compression.

Seamless Integration and Digital Control
The built-in SoundAlign™ web interface allows complete control of the sophisticated DSP engine from any LAN-connected device. This provides access to 5-band parametric EQ, delay, and phase options, ensuring the subwoofer is perfectly aligned within stereo or immersive arrays. A dedicated XBD mode allows for seamless pairing with PMC6-2 or PMC8-2 monitors for even greater dynamic range.
