Overview
The Quest MX10S is the larger of the two MX Series subwoofers, built to add proper low end under a distributed or zoned system. A custom 10 inch woofer with a 50 mm voice coil and dual magnets gives 96 dB sensitivity and 118 dB maximum SPL from a low profile birch plywood cabinet.
With a 44 Hz to 90 Hz response, it sits neatly under MX surface speakers or MX4C and MX6C ceiling speakers. There is no grille, so it reads as a plain box on a wall or ceiling, and the optional MP10S plate handles mounting. It suits bars, restaurants, gyms, function rooms, foyers and retail fitouts where music needs some weight. Available in black or white.

Forefront Tip
The MX10S is passive, so give it its own amp channel with a low pass filter. On a QX series amp, switch in the 100 Hz low pass on the sub channel and the 80 Hz high pass on the tops. On a QXD amp, load the Quest presets. Then set the sub level by ear with music playing, so it adds warmth without booming.
