No. SUB 10/12 active subwoofer is not compatible with Ultimea devices that use a passive subwoofer.

Although some of these devices may have a Sub Out or similar subwoofer output, the output is designed for connecting the original passive subwoofer and provides a high-level audio signal. It is not suitable for connecting an active subwoofer such as the SUB 10/12. SUB 10/12 is not compatible with Ultimea devices that are designed to work with passive subwoofers, including:

  • Aura A60
  • Poseidon M60
  • Skywave F Series

For these products, the included passive subwoofer is specifically matched to the main device. We do not recommend replacing the original passive subwoofer with another active subwoofer. The impedance, power requirements, connector type, and wiring configuration may differ between products. As a result, an external active subwoofer may not work properly and could potentially damage the device.

SUB 10/ 12 only supports connections through an RCA output or a Sub Out port that provides a low-level audio signal. Compatible Ultimea devices include:

  • Apollo S40
  • Apollo S40 Pro
  • Poseidon M20
  • Poseidon M20 Pro
  • Solo series
  • Bookshelf Speaker (UB100)

Before connecting the SUB 10, please confirm that your device provides a low-level RCA Sub Out designed for an active subwoofer. If your device uses a high-level output for a passive subwoofer, do not connect the SUB 10 to that port.
