SCS Subwoofer
The SCS is nicknamed the "Suitcase Sub" because of its uncommon form factor and size of 7-inches W x 22.5-inches H x 37-inches D. When installation of the Sage Series S90i in-wall subwoofer is not practical, the compact size and aspect ratio of the SCS allows it to be placed in areas where other in-room subwoofers will not fit, offering customers a unique freestanding subwoofer option – one that can actually be hidden.
We examined all types of transducer and cabinet loading options to determine a design that would complement the extraordinary dynamics and low distortion of our planar magnetic systems. The Regenerative Transmission Line® design of the S90i proved to be the ideal option for ensuring a high performance, no-compromise low frequency solution when installed in a stud bay, ceiling, or floor. And, the freestanding SCS uses this same Regenerative Transmission Line® design to deliver results that simply belie its diminutive size.
The SCS is powered by a 400-watt internal amplifier and is capable of 120 dB @ 25 Hz. The dual 5-inch x 7.5-inch woofer design yields an equivalent active cone area of 13 inches and is taken directly from the larger Sage Series S90i in-wall subwoofer.
The unique 'multi-port' design allows for flexibility in how the SCS' output is ported into the room. The uncommon shape of the SCS creates opportunities for installation in places where a cube subwoofer would not fit or be effective. In taking full advantage of the seven-inch dimension, the SCS can be placed under or behind furniture, such as a sofa or cabinets, so as to remain out of sight, and with the port configured to any of three sides. Never before has a freestanding subwoofer offered such unprecedented installation flexibility.
The Sage Series SCS subwoofer's highly efficient and compact design yields fast, dynamic, articulate results with accurate timbre. When used in a Sage Series speaker system, Audyssey™ room correction is provided via the SC-1 System Controller, and further optimizes the SCS's in-room response.
However, unlike the S90i, which is required to be used in conjunction with the Sage Series SC-1 System Controller, the SCS's integral crossover and gain control allow it to be used with a wide range of systems. Instead of living with the compromise of a conspicuous "bass cube" subwoofer, the SCS can be considered for use with any speaker system where the deepest bass should be heard, but not seen. With its ability to be placed under or behind furniture, such as sofas and beds, or hidden inside theater risers or entertainment rack kick panels, the SCS makes most subwoofers appear cumbersome and inflexible.
The SCS strikes the perfect balance when a subwoofer must be placed within a room – no more compromises required.
