Description
Loewe klang sub5 – Premium Wireless Active Subwoofer
The Loewe klang sub5 is a premium wireless active subwoofer engineered to deliver powerful, controlled bass for compatible Loewe home cinema systems.
Featuring 360 watts of total music power, two active 6-inch bass drivers and four passive bass radiators, the klang sub5 delivers impressive low-frequency performance down to 35Hz.
Its innovative motion-compensating acoustic design reduces unwanted cabinet vibration, while the elegant Basalt Grey enclosure complements contemporary living rooms and premium home cinema installations.
Powerful 360W Bass Performance
The klang sub5 combines efficient Class-D amplification with advanced bass reproduction.
Its performance includes:
- 180W continuous amplifier output
- 360W total music power
- 35Hz–150Hz acoustic frequency response
- Six-driver bass system
- Adjustable subwoofer level
- Dedicated low-frequency reproduction for home cinema
The result is deeper, more impactful sound for films, television programmes and music.
Innovative Six-Driver Acoustic Design
The klang sub5 incorporates:
- Two active 6-inch bass drivers
- Four passive 6-inch bass radiators
- Radial, motion-compensating driver arrangement
- Closed cabinet construction with passive membranes
The symmetrical arrangement helps counteract the forces generated by the moving bass drivers, reducing unwanted cabinet vibration.
This allows the subwoofer to deliver powerful low-frequency performance from a relatively compact enclosure.
Wireless Digital Audio Link
The klang sub5 features Loewe Wireless Digital Audio Link, second generation (WDAL).
This dedicated wireless audio connection enables compatible Loewe soundbars to transmit the subwoofer signal without requiring a conventional audio cable between the two units.
Benefits include:
- Convenient subwoofer placement
- Reduced visible cabling
- Low-latency wireless audio transmission
- Integration with compatible Loewe home cinema systems
The subwoofer still requires a mains power connection.
Important: The klang sub5 does not function as a conventional Bluetooth music speaker or independent Wi-Fi streaming device.
Compatible Loewe Home Cinema Systems
The klang sub5 is designed to complement selected Loewe soundbars and home cinema products, including:
- Loewe klang bar5 mr
- Loewe klang bar3 mr
- Selected compatible Loewe iconic audio systems
It can provide the dedicated low-frequency channel in an expanded surround sound system.
Compatibility should always be checked against the exact Loewe product before ordering.
Analogue Audio Input
In addition to wireless operation, the klang sub5 includes a 3.5mm stereo analogue audio input.
This provides a wired connection option for suitable audio equipment.
The source must provide an appropriate audio signal, and connection compatibility should be confirmed before installation.
Elegant Basalt Grey Design
The klang sub5 features a distinctive low-profile, rounded enclosure with premium acoustic fabric and a refined upper surface.
Its design combines:
- Basalt Grey finish
- Premium acoustic fabric
- Compact, low-profile cabinet
- Symmetrical acoustic construction
- Minimalist contemporary styling
Unlike a conventional rectangular subwoofer, the klang sub5 has been designed to look attractive from multiple angles.
Flexible Placement
The klang sub5 is suitable for installation in a variety of home entertainment spaces.
Recommended locations include:
- Beside a television cabinet
- Along a suitable room wall
- Within a dedicated home cinema area
- Near compatible Loewe audio equipment
- In contemporary media rooms
Avoid obstructing the acoustic surfaces or placing the subwoofer in a tightly enclosed compartment.
Professional placement and configuration can help optimise bass performance.
