Easily Connect a Subwoofer to Legacy Audio Components

Many integrated amplifiers and legacy stereo receivers lack line-level outputs, leaving enthusiasts without the ability to connect a powered subwoofer to their system.

With a minimalist design and premium components, the SoundPath Speaker Level Subwoofer Adapter ensures pristine and transparent signal transfer to the subwoofer without compromise to any part of the playback system.

    Subwoofer adapter - Great little gadget.

    Adapter worked perfectly as advertise and was easily installed.

    I’ve been an SVS customer now for about 10 or 12 years.

    Really great customer service and fast responses to inquiries.

    I highly recommend this company.

    Finally a Subwoofer out designed for Power Amplifiers!

    I added this device because I had no sub out from my preamp. The best move I could have made, now I have a device that will follow my power amp out to my subwoofer SVS PB-2000 no matter what my final output will be in the future. The SVS adapter provides the right level with no effect on the speaker sound or drain on the power amp. Recommended, it solves a lot of issues!

    Subwoofer adapter

    The adapter works well without any degradation of sound quality. After adding a subwoofer to my system the sound becomes more three dimensional. Good choice and easy to connect.

    Works but didn’t

    Purchased to integrate with my McIntosh MA5300. It passed the signal to my SVS 2000SBs. However whenever I played higher volume pulling about 10 watts on the amp (according to vu meters) my amps Powergard protection triggered. Unfortunately had to send back. Customer service as always flawless!
