Press Releases

SAN DIEGO, September 6, 2018 – Legrand, the global leader in AV infrastructure, networking and digital systems, introduces its first line of powered subwoofers under the Nuvo brand at CEDIA 2018. Available in 8-, 10- and 12-inch models, each are designed to offer maximum versatility to integrate with almost any audio system for the delivery of high performance bass for music, movies and gaming.

The new powered subwoofers each feature a front-mounted woofer in a cabinet constructed of durable MDF for distortion-free bass response and are also compatible with an optional wireless kit (NV-SUBTXRX) that includes one transmitter and one receiver for ultimate installation flexibility in single room installations. The NV-SUBRX is an additional accessory to the kit that contains one receiver. Users can add up to three NV-SUBRX to the NV-SUBTXRX to create a system with four wireless subwoofers in a single room. With power ratings up to 300 watts and frequency response as low as 23Hz, the line is designed to meet the needs of most any residential installation.

“Legrand’s new Nuvo powered subwoofers empower home tech professionals to complete their customers’ music and home theater systems with high performing and easy-to-integrate options for premium sound,” said Fritz Werder, VP/GM for Legrand’s Nuvo and On-Q lines. “They bring music, movies, and video games to life with an immersive bass experience that you can not only hear, but also truly feel.”

The new line includes the:

·       NV-SUB8: The 8-inch model packs hard-hitting bass into a discreet, compact, black vinyl enclosure with a single front-mounted port. Its all-digital 100-watt amplifier generates premium low-frequency audio (30Hz – 200Hz) to smaller home theater and audio installations.

·       NV-SUB10: The 10-inch model brings a new dimension of deep and detailed clarity to movies and music. With a black vinyl cabinet featuring dual front-mounted ports and an efficient all-digital 200-watt amplifier, this model adds powerful low-frequency response (27Hz – 200Hz) to mid-sized home theater and audio installations. 

·       NV-SUB12GB: The 12-inch model elevates the enjoyment of music, movies, and video games with dynamic low frequency audio response. It boasts a sealed cabinet with a black multi-coat high gloss finish and an efficient all-digital 300-watt amplifier that delivers deep and detailed low-frequency sound (23Hz – 200Hz) to custom home theater or audio installations.  

Each model has an unfiltered LFE / RCA stereo input and output that enables easy connection to most modern receivers. In addition, convenient USB jacks can power optional wireless receivers. Variable crossover and phase controls allow perfect matching between these subwoofers outputs and main speakers for premium performance and sound.

Signal-sensing power activation automatically turns on these subwoofers when they receive a signal from a receiver and return them to standby 15 minutes after there is no signal. 

Each model’s woofer carries a lifetime warranty, with a two-year warranty for the amplifiers.
