The Flagship of JBL Synthesis Subwoofer Performance
The flagship of the JBL Synthesis SSW subwoofer line, the SSW-1 delivers unrivaled low-frequency performance and is suitable for large to extra-large theater rooms. Featuring dual 15-inch, high-excursion, cast-frame woofers with advanced aluminum matrix cones and massive 6‑inch voice coils, the SSW-1 is housed in a heavily braced enclosure constructed entirely from 1‑inch MDF to maximize rigidity and minimize unwanted resonance. Moreover, dual-patented Slipstream front-firing ports reduce airflow turbulence, thereby lessening noise and increasing accuracy. This supreme subwoofer also features a steel-framed, magnetically attached black-cloth grille. Complete with dual gold-plated binding post input terminals, the JBL Synthesis SSW-1 is a no-compromise passive subwoofer engineered to deliver reference-grade dynamics, unerring accuracy, and maximum cinematic impact.
