For stunning low frequencies you feel with your whole body, sink into the exciting bass abyss of MartinLogan's new Abyss 10 Powered Subwoofer. Compact and powerful, this supercharged sub provides potent, highly musical bass that will kick new life into movies and music.

The Triple 10"" Hybrid Woofer System consists of a single high-excursion, 10"" anodized-aluminum cone in a stamped steel basket with dual 10"" anodized-aluminum cone passive radiators. The built-in Magnitude MT-1.6kW amplifier delivers up to 1,600 watts peak power and 800 watts continuous power.

Behind and Beneath the New Abyss Series

Almost 20 years ago, MartinLogan revolutionized audio performance with the introduction of the original Abyss subwoofer, a powerhouse that redefined the standard for deep bass. This iconic subwoofer was a larger, more potent version of the highly acclaimed Dynamo. Today, the Abyss Series returns, carrying forward this legacy with a new approach.

Introducing the modern Abyss Series subwoofers. Engineered with a unique Hybrid Woofer System, these subwoofers deliver ""supercharged"" performance in a sleek, compact design. By enhancing performance and minimizing their footprint, the new Abyss Series redefines what you expect from a subwoofer, offering unparalleled sound quality in a miniaturized size.

These subwoofers pack an extensive features list and impressive power into a stylish, super-compact, room-friendly design, delivering performance completely unexpected from their size. With technologies including built-in wireless signal connection, advanced Anthem Room correction, anti-vibration feet, and easy-to-use app control, Abyss Series subwoofers offer incredible performance and flexibility.

Seamlessly Integrating High-Performance Audio with Elegant Design

Emphasizing high performance and decor-friendly aesthetics, MartinLogan subwoofers expertly blend audiophile musicality and theatricality with dynamic output and accuracy in a compact design. As with all MartinLogan subwoofers, the Abyss Series is designed to work with any speaker system while being uniquely engineered to keep pace with the exotic thin-film technologies utilized in MartinLogan loudspeakers.

Hybrid Woofer System – The Ultimate Compact Powerhouse

Abyss subwoofers deliver high output and low distortion with custom-designed aluminum woofers, engineered for peak performance using advanced Klippel analysis. The lightweight, strong aluminum cones ensure excellent heat dissipation, making them perfect for powerful, compact subwoofers.

Featuring a unique Hybrid Woofer System, Abyss combines an active aluminum woofer with two aluminum passive radiators. This innovative design offers the enhanced output of a ported subwoofer while maintaining the compact size and tight bass of a sealed subwoofer. While much more difficult to design and engineer, this Hybrid system gives Abyss Series subwoofers the benefits of both sealed and ported designs all in one.

Advanced Vojtko DSP Engine: Elevating Subwoofer Performance

This powerful woofer system is backed by the cutting-edge, ultra-high-resolution Vojtko DSP engine, named after MartinLogan’s Chief Audio Technologist. Featuring a best-in-class 500MHz DSP with 64-bit processing, the Vojtko DSP engine controls all aspects of subwoofer performance in real-time.

This level of computing power enables advanced features like wireless app control, integrated wireless signal connection, and other advanced DSP functions with complete audible transparency, allowing MartinLogan engineers to fine-tune performance for maximum output and fidelity. Thanks to the computational power of this sophisticated DSP engine, Abyss subwoofers are also compatible with the award-winning Anthem Room Correction system.

Magnitude 1kW and 1.6kW Amplifiers Redefine Abyss Performance

MartinLogan’s proprietary Magnitude® Amplifiers unlock the full potential of the custom-engineered Abyss woofers. Featuring two carefully crafted architectures, the advanced Magnitude® 1kW in the Abyss 8 delivers up to 1000W Peak (500W RMS) of clean power, ensuring remarkable impact and seamless musicality.

Meanwhile, the Magnitude® 1.6kW in the Abyss 10 offers an impressive 1600W Peak (800W RMS), delivering powerful, deep bass with unparalleled clarity, precision and visceral impact. These ultra-efficient Class-D architectures guarantee exceptional control, providing an immersive audio experience that enhances all your favorite content.

Reduced Vibration, Enhanced Bass

Solid bass performance is a critical component of any audio system and contributes to the visceral impact of your entertainment. Abyss’s integrated anti-vibration feet improve bass performance while reducing floor and wall vibrations. By dramatically reducing energy transfer between the subwoofer and the floor, unwanted room rattles and buzzes are eliminated, resulting in tighter, cleaner bass and improved system clarity and dynamics.

As a less intrusive alternative to acoustic room treatments, Abyss’s integrated anti-vibration feet can also help minimize noise complaints by reducing vibration transfer into adjoining rooms. Suitable for all types of flooring, options include hard surface and carpet spikes.

Fine-Tune Your Subwoofer Settings with MartinLogan's Intuitive App

By far the most convenient way to adjust a subwoofer, MartinLogan’s Subwoofer Control app for iOS and Android devices allows you to easily adjust settings such as Volume, DSP Mode, Phase, and many others right from the comfort of your seat for ultimate control and ease of tuning.

Optimize Bass Performance with Award-Winning Anthem Room Correction

Abyss subwoofers are compatible with the award-winning Anthem Room Correction system. This highly advanced software measures subwoofer performance in your room and then performs custom equalization, tuning, and calibration to achieve the highest levels of bass impact and accuracy possible for your specific installation. Requires an ARC Calibration Microphone and a PC or Mac computer (optional, sold separately).
