Introduction

In 2013 Monitor Audio released the award winning ASB-2, which raised the ‘bar’ of what is possible from an active soundbar. Born from this success we are pleased

to now bring you the ASB-10, a Bluetooth enabled active soundbar with a much larger sound than it’s cabinet size would suggest. Like it’s bigger brother, the ASB-10

is capable of producing large scale 5.1 ‘3D’ audio without need of multiple surround speakers.

For added bass depth and sonic weight the ASB-10 can be paired wirelessly with the WT-10 subwoofer or WR-1 for connecting other subwoofers (sold seperately).

We hope your new purchase brings you many years of listening pleasure!
