Enhancing bass performance in home cinema or stereo systems, the Mission MS-450 Sub subwoofer range incorporates a specially developed long-throw bass driver and an ultra-fast, balanced-drive Class D power amplifier to deliver a powerful response. On top of this, a variable crossover-frequency control offers seamless integration with other speakers in the system, providing extended subsonic response with total precision and clarity.
Each subwoofer either has a down-firing or forward-firing bass unit to improve room coupling at low frequencies, dispersing the sound evenly throughout the listening area. These active subwoofers also feature adjustable crossover frequency, level control and phase switch that enables seamless integration with your choice of home cinema loudspeakers and amplifiers.
BRUTE STRENGTH
While high-performance mid/bass and treble units are the foundation of a great-sounding speaker, an improperly reinforced cabinet can be an unruly source of unwanted noise.
Extensive research and development was carried out to ensure internal cabinet robustness, eliminating any unwanted cabinet resonances and vibrations. Using a combination of CAD analysis, extensive experimentation, and extensive listening tests, the cabinet within each speaker has been braced at key points, ensuring the full frequency range is clear and detailed.
The diagram shows areas of bracing and its effect on the sound. Blue areas show where noise is reduced through cabinet bracing, while red areas highlight where there is sound. As you can see, the sound is emanating from the drivers rather than the cabinet, as it should be.

Aurasa Harbir –
I absolutely love my subwoofer. It’s just what I was looking for when I was looking for a subwoofer. It was great, I was searching for something that would deliver a smooth, crisp sound, and this subwoofer does it for me.
Sharad Srivastava –
Added a Mission MS-450 subwoofer to upgrade my 7.1.4 system to 7.2.4. The 15″ front ported SW has added a great amount of clean low level grunt to my setup and sounds just right for me. Looks a bit bulky, but then when it comes to bass – “there is no replacement for displacement”!
Excellent support from Mr Anil as usual – I have been his client for 10+ years now!
