More Bass. More Music.
Experience deep, rich bass that brings your favorite tunes to life. Our award-winning SpinSub subwoofer uses advanced tech—including a Class D amplifier, dual 6.5-inch drivers, and IsoGroove® technology—to deliver smooth, powerful sound for your SpinBase system. Enjoy your music like never before.
Add more Bass to your Spin System
The SpinSub is the ideal addition to the SpinBase or SpeakEasy, extending their low-frequency range below what is achievable with compact speaker designs. Thanks to force-cancelling IsoGroove® technology, the SpinSub can be placed close to your turntable, even in the same stand, unlike most subwoofers.

Small but capable, the SpinSub delivers tight, balanced bass with clean extension down into the 40Hz region, making it a natural mate for the SpinBase in medium rooms. Reviewer Graig Neville found its output controlled rather than boomy, while its adjustable crossover and compact footprint ease placement and integration.
Pros
- Adds controlled low-end extension (down toward ~40Hz) that fills rooms without muddiness, pairing well with the SpinBase.
- Handy integration controls (adjustable 50–180Hz low-pass and level knob plus auto-sensing) make setup and room placement straightforward.
- Compact, well-behaved design that delivers clean output without distortion at moderate levels—suits small to medium rooms.
&
Cons
- Limited deep-room headroom—won't deliver shake-the-walls bass for bass-heavy listeners or very large rooms.

Bass
82/100
Dual 6.5" woofers in a vented enclosure with a stated 32Hz low end imply good extension for a compact unit, but 100W (peak) amplification and small driver size limit deep-room-filling output and headroom.
Dynamics
75/100
Vented design and dual drivers should give reasonable transient response for its size; limited amplifier power (100W peak) and compact drivers constrain slam and long-term headroom in demanding rooms.

Integration
72/100
Features that aid integration (adjustable 50-180Hz LPF, level control, automatic signal sensing) are present, but no review outcomes are provided about how it 'disappears' with mains or whether there is boom/overhang. Features ≠ Integration; add outcome evidence or lower Integration.
Build Quality
80/100
MDF enclosure with internal bracing and a heathered fabric grille suggests solid construction and finish options (white or black) suitable for furniture integration and durability.
Features Connectivity
80/100
IsoGroove feedback-elimination tech, adjustable LPF and level, automatic signal sensing, mini-jack input with adapter to RCA—good practical connectivity and controls for placement and source options. Passive baseline applied.
Value for Money
70/100
At $379 the SpinSub offers convenient features and decent compact performance, but price is moderate relative to driver size and amplifier rating; without reviewer praise calling it a 'no-brainer' value, score is conservative.
