Yamaha VXS3S 3.5-Inch Surface-Mount Subwoofer

The VXS3S from Yamaha is a 3.5" Dual SR-Bass™ subwoofer for high and low impedance systems.

VXS series “S” model subwoofers are ideal matches for VXS and VXC series speakers, smoothly extending the low frequency range with superb sonic quality for bigger, more true-to-life musical reproduction. Although no larger than a compact surface-mount speaker the VXS3S delivers solid, natural-sounding low-end reinforcement, while the VXS10S and VXS10ST make even more low-frequency power available for situations that require maximum bass authority.
