Aerial Acoustics SW 12 Powered Subwoofer; Near Mint; Santos Rosewood

This subwoofer is absolutely the real deal... one of those subwoofers that you listen to for the first time and you just say "wow". It's not what you hear that makes such an impression - its what you don't hear that is significant - not a hint of distortion or rattling or boomy bass.... just extremely tight, responsive, accurate and DEEP bass. This thing weighs an impressive 130lbs. The only thing more impressive is its stunning good looks. The Rosewood finish is gorgeous. This was an upgrade / extra charge for this finish when new.

Functional condition of this subwoofer is flawless. The original owner took impeccable care of his gear, and this unit was utilized in a seldom-used, dedicated home theater room. Very low hours on this unit in a non-smoking environment.

Cosmetic condition is excellent. If you look at it in the right light from the right angle, you can see a light scratch / gouge on the left side of the cabinet. It is not deep enough to expose raw wood. It really is hardly visible at all unless you are looking for it. But it is significant because it is the only blemish keeping me from calling it "mint". Overall appearance is excellent... stunning really. See photos for details.

Note that we have been promised the original shipping carton for this unit by the original owner. As of now, it is not yet in our possession so keep in mind that the subwoofer may or may not include original packaging. In either case, we will make sure it is well protected before securing it to a pallet for shipment via FedEx freight. If no factory box, we will build a custom "crate" around it for extra protection. Shipping will be at a flat rate of $149 anywhere in the Continental USA.

The Aerial Acoustics Model SW12 produces deep, pitch-accurate, truly expressive bass providing the essential foundation for great music and film experiences. Its design reflects our uncompromising approach to creating a low frequency reproducer that is at home in the best pure music systems and in mixed media, multi-channel systems for playback of music, movies and more. The SW12 communicates bass with full weight and authority, providing solid, precise, impactful bass extending effortlessly to below 20Hz. It is capable of recreating an instrument’s unique timbre, an intricate bass melody, and deep, visceral impact.

One Model SW12 provides sufficient output for even large rooms, while two or more units are often combined in a single system to further optimize bass quality and to preserve spatial cues. Extensive controls allow for tailoring the response relative to the system’s main loudspeakers, to the room environment, and to the program material.

An optional base is available (shown in photo).
