8" Ultra-Compact Extended-Response 1000w Powered Subwoofer - NEW!
GoldenEar’s award-winning ForceField Series subwoofers are engineered from the ground up to deliver subtle musical detail, well-extended bass, high-impact slam, and the solid foundation for an expansive soundstage — all from attractive, compact enclosures that easily fits into any environment.

The design brief was simple: achieve uncompromising, state-of-the-art subwoofer performance from the smallest-possible enclosures. Compared to previous models, the new ForceField 30 included several significant sonic and cosmetic refinements:
Compact, Elegant Cabinet Designed for Performance and Beauty: GoldenEar BRX model-inspired curved (extended surface) top panel better minimizes cabinet resonances. Increased wall thickness prevents absorbing and smearing important bass transient information and impact. Perforated metal grille affords improved sonic transparency and airflow. Gorgeous and subtle Satin-Black finish.
Robust, Efficient Amplifier: Upgraded Electronics Platform Based on the Award-Winning SuperSub X/XXL: GoldenEar SuperSub-inspired electronics with Analog Devices DSP affords fatter, more extended frequency response for cleaner, deeper bass with lower distortion. MOSFET output stage and improved implementation result in greater power transfer efficiency. Necessary subwoofer Level and Low-Pass filter controls allow easy optimization for home theaters, hi- setups, and living environments.
Optimized Driver Configuration: Superb Detail, Soul-Stirring Bass: Ultra-Long-Throw Sub-Bass Driver with Superior transient performance for natural detail. Computer-optimized ultra-stiff fiber cone with massive high-gauss magnet assembly
Quadratic Planar Infrasonic Radiator: The Downward-firing pressure-coupled loading extends usable bass performance to the infrasonic region. Approximates the near-perfect impedance of a well-tuned transmission line, but with superior transient performance and control, that affords outstanding flexibility for room placement
The overall result is agile, musical, room- filling bass equally suited to thrilling soundtracks, stirring orchestral pieces, propulsive pop music, and everything in between. With the new ForceField 30 we’ve achieved the GoldenEar mandates for any subwoofer: To be subtle and invisible, allowing a string bass or a jet’s roar to seem to come out of nowhere, and unignorably do its job when the pluck of a bass guitar or a giant’s footsteps are supposed to rumble your soul.
