High-performance active subwoofer
The Electra SW 1000 Be is a high-performance active vented subwoofer designed to complement an Electra speaker system. It extends the low-frequency response of full-range loudspeakers down to 18Hz at the -6dB point. A 750W BASH amplifier provides very high power and current output for demanding bass reproduction.
Interface and control limits
Built-in DSP enables high setting accuracy with an adjustable low-pass filter from 50Hz to 150Hz at 24dB per octave. A subsonic filter operates at 48dB per octave, while adjustable phase, Boost mode, Night mode and three user memories tailor the output. LFE, Stereo and Digital inputs are available alongside a digital serial connection for linking multiple subwoofers.
Upgrade from passive or lesser-powered bass
This unit replaces a passive subwoofer or an underpowered active model that cannot reach 20Hz cleanly or lacks precise DSP alignment. The 13-inch W-cone driver and massive 50mm MDF structure eliminate vibration and dynamic compression. The jump is worth it when a system needs authoritative sub-20Hz extension with laminar port airflow and zero port noise.

Questions about this item
Should I pick the Dogato Walnut finish or the Slate Grey lacquer for my Electra SW 1000 Be?
This specific model is supplied in Dogato Walnut wood veneer with a Slate Grey piano-lacquer body; no other finish option is offered for this product number.
What does the 750 W BASH amplifier actually deliver in my listening room?
The 750 W BASH amplifier drives the 13-inch W-cone driver to a -6 dB low-frequency point of 18 Hz and a +/-3 dB response down to 20 Hz with very high current capability.
How does the built-in DSP and digital connection limit or expand my setup options?
The on-board DSP provides a 24 dB/octave low-pass filter adjustable from 50 Hz to 150 Hz, a 48 dB/octave subsonic filter, phase control, Boost and Night modes plus three user memories, and the digital serial link allows daisy-chaining multiple subwoofers.
