Sonance VP85W – Rectangular In-Wall/In-Ceiling Subwoofer

Product Overview

The Sonance VP85W is a rectangular Visual Performance subwoofer built into an in-wall or in-ceiling form factor. It is intended for integrators adding dedicated bass to a room without a floor-standing or freestanding enclosure, finished with a Sonance Visual Performance micro-trim grille.

Product Description

The VP85W delivers dedicated low-frequency output from an in-wall or in-ceiling cavity, which lets a project add real bass extension without giving up floor space to a traditional subwoofer cabinet. It is finished with a Sonance Visual Performance micro-trim grille for a low-profile look that is meant to disappear into the surrounding wall or ceiling surface. The rectangular form factor pairs naturally with a matching square adapter and grille (sold separately) for projects that want a consistent square-opening look across the room's Sonance speaker lineup. Because the VP85W mounts in standard wall or ceiling construction, it is typically specified alongside in-wall LCR speakers in media rooms and home theaters where a visible subwoofer cabinet is not an option.
