Clear, distortion-free bass response
The SUB6 uses a sealed cabinet design to produce fast, accurate low frequencies. This approach reduces the risk of distortion and delivers bass that is tight, controlled, and well defined. The sealed construction keeps air movement inside the cabinet, allowing for precise control over the woofer’s motion. This makes it easier to hear individual bass notes clearly, which is especially useful in music production or critical listening environments.
The 6-inch paper cone woofer also contributes to the clean sound. Paper cones are known for their natural, uncoloured tone and fast transient response. This means the SUB6 can respond quickly to changes in your audio, helping to preserve the detail and timing of your soundtracks or music. This clarity gives you a more accurate and enjoyable listening experience across a range of content.
Compact size with strong output
SUB6 may be small, but it produces a surprising amount of low-end power. Its Class D amplifier delivers 100 watts RMS and up to 200 watts at peak, which is more than enough for most small to medium-sized rooms. You get punchy, room-filling bass without the need for a large cabinet. The amplifier is highly efficient, generating minimal heat and allowing for long playback sessions without overheating.
This balance of size and power makes SUB6 a great choice for small flats, home offices, bedroom setups, and compact studios. It easily fits under a desk or in a corner without demanding much space. You can add low-end reinforcement to your system without compromising on room layout or furniture placement.
Flexible controls for easy integration
To help you get the best results in your specific setup, the SUB6 includes an adjustable low-pass crossover and a two-position phase switch. The low-pass filter can be set between 40 Hz and 120 Hz, allowing you to decide how much of the low frequency range is handled by the subwoofer. This helps you avoid overlap with your main speakers and results in a smoother overall sound.
The phase switch gives you a simple way to correct phase alignment between your subwoofer and main speakers. If the bass feels weak or out of sync, flipping the phase setting can help realign the timing of the low frequencies. This results in tighter, more consistent bass across your room. These controls are especially helpful in mixed-use rooms or setups where speaker placement cannot be fully optimised.
Modern styling with practical features
SUB6 is designed with a clean, minimal appearance that pairs well with modern audio gear. Its compact cabinet is built from acoustic-grade MDF, offering durability along with good acoustic performance. The surface finish is available in several colour options, making it easier to match with your existing speakers or furniture.
The rear panel includes a stereo RCA input, making it compatible with most audio systems, including those using pre-outs or dedicated subwoofer outputs. SUB6 also includes an auto-standby mode that activates when no signal is detected, helping to conserve energy when your system is idle. This practical feature reduces power consumption without the need to manually switch the unit off and on each time.
Altogether, the Kanto SUB6 is a well-rounded subwoofer that combines accurate sound, flexible setup options, and space-saving design. It is a strong addition to smaller audio setups that need more depth and impact, while still keeping things simple and manageable.
