Getting the best wireless subwoofer is a lossless way of reducing the number of tangling cords on the floor. A regular device receives its signal through a wire connected to the amplifier that also powers it. You omit that by having a receiver in the sub itself, programmed to get the signal from a transmitter. The latter can be plugged into the preamp or be already incorporated if you buy a special model. Pumping the low frequencies is a power-hungry task so, naturally, the device needs to be plugged into a socket, wireless or not. However, to become a powered subwoofer, it needs its own amplifier.
To this point, home theater and Hi-Fi subwoofers with cords are the more popular ones. Soundbars are more commonly equipped with wireless subwoofers. If you are purchasing the latter combination, get ready for the most effortless installation process ever. Your biggest problem with the sub will be to find that sweet spot where the sound is optimal. If you’re interested in what the downsides are, two can be named. First, it is not entirely wireless, and you will need a socket nearby. Second, wired models still exceed in sound quality to some extent, and if that’s an absolute priority, cords will have to be tolerated.
If the sub is passive, it needs an amplifier to make sure the low frequencies it emits are powerful and deep enough. This means that the amplifier has to be able to feed enough power to the sub if the two are to work together. Different models have different requirements dictated by the watts RMS, impedance and some additional factors. To make sure the best wireless subwoofer can perform at its best, you need to match it to the amplifier. Both insufficient and excessive power supply should be avoided.
As opposed to the previous type, an active sub comes with an incorporated amplifier that is perfectly matched to the device’s needs. It makes the process of buying a device much easier for you, eliminating any above-mentioned match issues. Since everything is in one box, there will be one less wire dangling around, the active sub requiring only to be powered from a socket.
