Introduction
Thank you for choosing a TAPCO SW•10 Active Studio Subwoofer. The TAPCO product
line hails back to the days of TAPCO Corporation, Greg Mackie’s fi rst company. TAPCO
revolutionized the audio industry back in 1969 with the very fi rst 6-channel mixer specifi cally
designed for keyboards and rock ‘n’ roll.
In essence, TAPCO redefi ned the price/performance ratio and made high-quality
professional audio equipment accessible to virtually anyone. Today, TAPCO is reborn
with the same ideals and is backed by the world-class engineering and manufacturing
horsepower of Mackie and LOUD Technologies.
The TAPCO SW•10 joins the S•5 and S•8 of the active studio monitor line in the TAPCO
by Mackie® family. These versatile compact “mini-monitors” and “mini-subs” can be used
in a variety of applications, including small project studios, surround sound editing, home
theater playback, and desktop audio workstations (DAWs).
The SW•10 active studio subwoofer is an acoustic suspension design for tight, articulate
bass that provides an amazingly fl at and linear low-frequency response down to 34 Hz.
The active crossover is a Linkwitz-Riley design that provides a range of 55 Hz to 110 Hz
at 24 dB/octave. The individual crossover controls for the left and right channels provide
additional fl exibility in surround sound applications with a subwoofer output and bass
management (LFE).
