Definitive Technology Descend DN8WT Subwoofer – White

Descend DN8 Ultra-Performance 8-inch Subwoofer

The Definitive Technology Descend DN8 is engineered to provide exceptional low-frequency performance in a space-efficient enclosure. Designed with the brand’s innovative 3XR Architecture, the DN8 outperforms conventional 8-inch subwoofers by producing louder, clearer, and more controlled bass with minimal distortion. This makes it an ideal solution for home theater, music listening, and gaming setups where both performance and compact size matter.

At the core of the DN8 is an 8-inch long-throw woofer supported by dual 8-inch passive radiators arranged in a 3XR configuration. This design creates three times the effective bass-radiating surface area compared to traditional ported subwoofers of similar size. By moving more air without using ports, the DN8 eliminates port noise and delivers tight, articulate low frequencies with impressive depth, extending down to 35 Hz.

Powering the system is a high-efficiency Class D digital amplifier, capable of delivering strong, dynamic bass while maintaining low distortion and excellent thermal efficiency. The amplifier is specifically tuned to maximize the benefits of the 3XR design, ensuring consistent output during both subtle bass passages and demanding low-frequency effects.

The rear control panel allows easy system integration, offering adjustable volume, low-pass crossover, and phase settings for precise tuning. Flexible connectivity options include an LFE input as well as left and right 5-way binding posts. Finished in either Midnight Black or Glacier White, the DN8 combines refined aesthetics with durable construction, making it a versatile and high-performance addition to any audio system.
