The body of B&W ASW 855 subwoofer consists of bent panels for reducing resonances. The 38-cm driver with a Rohacell "sandwich" diffuser is mounted in front and driven by a kilowatt pulse amplifier. It is available in three types of finishes.

When coordinating, first, B&W ASW 855 makes you pretty work for it (to move such a heavy machine around the room is not easy), and then apply the entire arsenal of subwoofer settings in the receiver. I don't know why at the design stage it was saved on a smooth phase regulator, which would be very useful. Also, in the subwoofer for such a cost I would like to see the sharp transition band switch. Instead, there is A/B correction selector that works oddly. In one position the limitation on the lower reproducible frequency is activated. For a "Subsonic" type filter, the effect is too significant (it changes the color of the low bass instruments), and it is ineffective for correcting the entire reproduced band.

But if you have succeeded in coordination - get high. B&W ASW 855 transmits the fronts of any bass drum with incredible precision. In the area where the sub overlaps the band of monitors, there is no hint of discord. The system sounds like a single whole, there are no even hints of overtones. Sound energy does not go to the useless shaking of the room - it all flows into the formation of the bass foundation. Thanks to its "architectural" talents, ASW 855 provides an unprecedentedly realistic transfer of ultra-low range. And as for firepower - absolute dynamics - the Briton definitely surpasses most of the competitors.
