Introducing
NEW POWERPIPE X SERIES
The New Generation of Powerpipe
Sonance is proud to introduce the new PowerPipe X (PPX) Series, a complete reimagining of the iconic PowerPipe subwoofer line. Two decades in the making, the PPX Series delivers true subwoofer performance with greater installation flexibility and expanded aesthetic integration options. Designed to deliver powerful low-frequency impact while staying true to our ‘Designed to Disappear’ philosophy, the PPX Series sets a new benchmark for architectural subwoofer solutions.
For projects that demand durability without compromise, the James marine-grade aluminum models extend the performance of PowerPipe X into even the most challenging outdoor environments. These weather-resistant enclosures maintain the deep, impactful low-frequency response that has defined the PowerPipe legacy, ensuring flawless performance indoors and out.

The PowerPipe X Series includes four advanced Sonance MDF models (PPX8, PPX10, PPX12, and PPX15), and James marine-grade aluminum models designated by a "-M" (PPX8-M, PPX10-M, PPX12-M, and PPX15-M). The range allows for compact options to suit smaller music systems and casual TV viewing or larger, high performance models when applied for cinema and premium music experiences. This breadth of choice empowers system designers to select the ideal solution for any project, from private theaters to expansive outdoor living spaces.
Performance That Disappears
At its core, the PowerPipe X Series embodies the “Designed to Disappear” ethos, delivering powerful, room-filling low frequencies while remaining virtually invisible within any architectural environment. This perfect balance of form and function makes the PPX Series an ideal solution for integrators and designers seeking subwoofer performance that complements, rather than competes with, the space it serves.
