Sound Quality

Bass
88/100
25 cm (10") driver with a dedicated 1000 W RMS / 2000 W peak bass amplifier, extremely low THD+N (0.005%) and very low background noise on spec sheets suggest strong extension, control and authority for its driver size. No listening-review bass comparisons to larger reference subs provided.
Dynamics
88/100
Very high dedicated bass amplification (1000 W RMS) and ultra-low measured distortion (THD+N 0.005%) point to strong transient control, headroom and low compression under typical listening levels. No direct reviewer listening notes available to confirm musical slam.

Integration
75/100
Only product features and compatibility (multiroom, presets, Cabasse ecosystem compatibility) are available; there is no reviewer outcome language about blending with mains or 'disappearing' in a system. Features ≠ Integration; add outcome evidence or lower Integration.
Build Quality
90/100
20 kg chassis, compact but substantial dimensions and Cabasse's premium positioning imply solid cabinet engineering and finish. No tear-downs or durability reports in the supplied material; score reflects brand and measured performance specs.
Features Connectivity
90/100
Extensive connectivity: Ethernet, Wi‑Fi, Bluetooth, USB, SPDIF optical, RCA analog; Hi‑Res multiroom and compatibility with several Cabasse speakers plus Bluetooth remote. Strong, modern feature set for placement and integration, as documented in product specs.
Value for Money
70/100
At the listed price (~15,995) this is a high-end, niche product. Performance and features are strong on paper, but the very high cost reduces relative value absent explicit reviewer language calling it a 'no-brainer' or 'best in class.'
