Introduction

Several design philosophies differentiate today’s

better subwoofers from one another, yet they share a

very common attribute: they are designed to shake the

ﬁllings from your teeth. A high-performing subwoofer

can supply the necessary energy to make the common

onscreen outbreak at a local dinosaur park feel as if

T-Rex has unmistakably made his way to your home.

Subwoofers can range in size from monstrosities that

resemble your refrigerator to products only slightly

larger than a soccer ball.

The SuperCube I is the most recent subwoofer

offering from Deﬁnitive Technology. The SuperCube I

is an ultra-compact powered cube that measures just

a hair over 14 inches in any direction and is driven

by a mighty 1,500-watt ampliﬁer. Although small in

stature, the SuperCube I weighs a dense 60 lbs. and

has a retail price of $1,200.

From a distance, the SuperCube I looks like many

cube-style subwoofers. However, close examination

reveals a couple of touches that make it distinctively

more attractive. The most popular of the cube sub-

woofers uses a semi-gloss paint over the exterior

surfaces. The SuperCube has attractive black fabric

stretched over the entire cube, accented with a top

plate, painted to perfection in piano black. This look

is in line with the rest of Deﬁnitive’s speaker line.

With the combination of its diminutive size and

modern styling, this sub should ﬁt in with virtually

every modern décor.

Finding the perfect subwoofer is not an easy quest.

In fact, acquiring a sub that not only performs well,

but also blends in seamlessly with your audio/video

system as well as your décor, can be a laborious,

agonizing process. The typical A/V consumer who

purchases a 5.1 speaker system containing a sub-

woofer never really compares the sonic performance

to any other manufacturer’s product. Why is this?

It’s because there is an implication that the product

that blends best is obviously manufactured as a

complete system — right? Well, not necessarily.

“The Deﬁnitive Technology

SuperCube I is the best subwoofer

that I have auditioned in its class …

At $1200 this sub is a bargain.”

With bass that is large and in charge — Deﬁnitive Technology’s new

SuperCube I is a well dressed new player in the tiny subwoofer market.

Deﬁnitive Technology’s SuperCube I

“rock solid bass … the reproduced

low frequencies were tight and

extended”

“provided the best sub integration

I have heard in my system”
