The SUMIKO S.5 is an active subwoofer for home stereo and home theater systems. Its built-in amplifier powers an 8-inch (210 mm) driver inside a sealed cabinet. The S.5 is intended for listeners adding a dedicated low-frequency speaker to either type of system.
The downward-firing driver uses a long-throw design and steel frame. A 150 W RMS Class AB amplifier is built into the cabinet. Its lower frequency limit is 40 Hz at -3 dB.
Three inputs accommodate different system outputs: high-level Neutrik Speakon, low-level Phono, and a separate Phono LFE input. A phase switch offers 0° and 180° settings. The cabinet measures 285 × 335 × 315 mm and comes in gloss piano black or white lacquer.
Benefits
- Sealed cabinet – The S.5 places its active driver in an enclosed cabinet rather than a ported enclosure.
- Downward-firing driver – The 8-inch (210 mm) unit faces the floor within the S.5 cabinet.
- Long-throw construction – The driver combines long-throw movement with a steel frame.
- Built-in amplification – A Class AB amplifier supplies 150 W RMS, so the S.5 has its own power source.
- Three connection choices – High-level, low-level, and LFE inputs let you select a connection matching your system’s output.
- Selectable phase – The switch provides two fixed positions, 0° and 180°.
- Two finishes – Gloss piano black and white lacquer provide a choice of cabinet appearance.
Who Is the SUMIKO S.5 For?
The S.5 serves home stereo systems that need a dedicated subwoofer. Its high-level Neutrik Speakon input provides a connection option when the system has a suitable high-level output. A single low-level Phono input provides another option when the system offers a corresponding output.
The S.5 also serves home theater systems. Its separate Phono LFE input accepts a corresponding LFE output from a theater system. That dedicated input gives theater owners a connection choice alongside the high-level and low-level options.
The reference information identifies home stereo and home theater systems as applications. It names no compatible amplifier, receiver, or speaker model. Choose the S.5 input that matches the output available on your own equipment.

Why Choose the SUMIKO S.5?
The S.5 combines a sealed enclosure with a floor-facing driver. Its long-throw driver has a steel frame, while the amplifier sits inside the cabinet. These features make it a self-powered subwoofer for the home audio systems identified above.
The connection panel covers three output types without requiring a single connection method for every setup. Neutrik Speakon handles the high-level input. Separate Phono connections serve low-level and LFE signals, keeping those two input choices distinct.
The 0°/180° phase switch provides a setting choice during setup. Its compact 285 mm width, 335 mm height, and 315 mm depth give buyers exact measurements for checking available space. Either lacquer finish can be selected to suit the intended room.
