Pure Performance. No Gimmicks.
For those seeking powerful bass without unnecessary frills, the Defiance V8, V10, and V12 subwoofers offer incredible value. Despite their compact design, they are packed with advanced technology, delivering deep, impactful low frequencies. Pound for pound, the Defiance V series provides the best bass experience at an unbeatable price.

Patented Active Ridge Technology (ART™)
A driver that moves more freely produces deeper bass. The patented ART driver design enhances the surround material, enabling greater excursion while preventing distortion or damage. This results in a measurable 3dB boost in output with 50% less audible distortion compared to conventional driver designs.

US patents: D654,4795 and 8,340,340B2.
Available exclusively on Defiance X10, X12, and X15.

Subwoofer Control App
Easily set up and fine-tune your subwoofer using the free Subwoofer Control App, available for both iOS and Android. Adjust volume, low-pass filter, phase, deep bass, and more—all from your seat. The app includes three preset listening modes and offers quick access to the Anthem Room Correction (ARC®) app for seamless calibration.

Anthem Room Correction (ARC®)
Using a mobile device or an optional calibrated microphone (included with Defiance X models and available separately for Defiance V models*), ARC® analyzes your room’s acoustics and applies sophisticated DSP algorithms to correct any performance-hindering anomalies. The result? Deep bass that blends naturally with your space for an exceptionally accurate listening experience.

Not available on Defiance V8.
