At a Glance

Your home theater meets its match.

ELAC’s new SUB3030 is designed as the perfect complement to the all-new Debut 2.0 loudspeakers, adding a powerful bass foundation to music and soundtracks that turns your system into a sensation you can feel as well as hear. Like Debut, the SUB3030 has been engineered and built to deliver huge performance at an affordable price. The compact design allows placement in almost any part of your room, and sophisticated app-controlled EQ and DSP software assure seamless integration into your system.

Custom Driver

A custom 12-inch long-throw driver provides the quality and quantity of bass that is fundamental to accurately reproducing today’s demanding movie soundtracks and music. A 12-inch passive radiator improves transient response and increases the efficiency of the system.

Enter BASH® amplification

BASH (Bridged Amplifier Switching Hybrid) amplifiers represent a “best of both worlds” solution for subwoofer amplification, combining the sound quality of Class AB with the efficiency of Class D amplifiers. While a Class AB amp uses fixed supply voltage regardless of input signal, BASH uses a modulated switched mode power supply that tracks the input signal, supplying only the necessary voltage to the Class AB amp as needed. The latest BASH technology has gone through three core evolutions and is further refined in these latest ELAC Debut subwoofers.

Robust cabinets

Every ELAC Debut subwoofer is engineered for the long run with thick MDF outer walls and a luxurious textured vinyl finish. The cabinets of the SUB3010 and SUB3030 incorporate specially designed internal bracing to add stiffness and strength to the outer walls. This bracing greatly reduces cabinet vibration, which causes unwanted coloration to the sound. ELAC believes that the only parts of a speaker that should be moving are the speaker drivers themselves.

Advanced Bluetooth® Control

Doing away with traditional analog controls, the SUB3010, SUB3030, and SUB3070 subwoofers incorporate ELAC’s advanced digital control system. Simply download the ELAC SUB Control 2.0 app for your smartphone and you will have complete control. No more fumbling around the back of the subwoofer again.

Auto EQ

Utilizing the ELAC SUB Control 2.0 app and your smartphone’s microphone, the SUB3010, SUB3030, and SUB3070 subwoofers will automatically equalize to your room’s characteristics using a 12-band parametric equalizer. Manual adjustment is available as well.

Auto Power On/Off

The subwoofer will detect when an audio signal is being sent to the amplifier and will power on. Also, to conserve energy, the subwoofer will power off after a long period of inactivity.
