KEF C200SW – Stereo Subwoofer

C200SW (1989-91)
The C200SW was a passive stereo subwoofer system designed specifically to operate with the
C-Series models C15 and C25. Two matched enclosures derive their power for the existing
amplifier – no additional amplification is required.
Combining the C200SW with either the C15 or C25 produces a full-range three-way system
with bass response extending down to nearly 35Hz. As the C200SW relieves the C15 and C25
of the need to reproduce the lowest frequencies, the system’s overall dynamic capabilities are
increased, with improved clarity and definition in the midrange.

A passive stereo subwoofer system designed spcifically to operate with KEF’s compact “C” Series models C15 and C25 loudspeakers. Two matched enclosers derive their power from the existing amplifier. No additional amplification is required.

Compact speaker systems rarely combine efficiency with bass extension. Their maximum output and power handling capability is also restricted. However, they are easy to position and can deliver excellent stereo imaging and detail, with low levels of colouration.

The KEF C200SW allows the owner of the C15 or C25 to retain these virtues but with substantially increased power handling, output capability and bass extension. Each subwoofer enclosure contains a dividing network giving optimum filtering for C15 or C25, with a 200mm (8″) bass unit mounted in single coupled-cavity configuration. This KEF Reference Series development combines the higher efficiency of a vented enclosure with the superior transient response of a sealed box, and with better power handling capacity than either type.

Combining the KEF C200SW with either C15 or C25 produces a full randge 3-way system with bass response extending down to nearly 35Hz.
