B&W SA-1000 (Black) rack-mount amplifier with built-in subwoofer equalisation

The SA 1000 subwoofer amplifier is specifically designed for use with the Custom Theatre CT SW subs. This deceptively compact unit (its less than four inches tall and weighs in at 14.3 pounds) produces an astounding 1,000 watts of subwoofer-range power, thanks to its ultra-efficient Class D amplifier design.

The SA1000s equalisation is custom-tailored to the CT SW subs, delivering deep-bass extension all the way to 16 Hz. And why stop at just one subwoofer? For really serious bass, its possible to use the SA 1000 to power two subs simultaneously.

Useful features include a three-way EQ switch for selecting each of the compatible subwoofers: the CT SW10, CT SW12 and CT SW
