We designed the ICS Sub 24 mk3 for maximum output 
and performance for today’s digital formats.  With bass 
extension to 20 Hz (-6dB), and output over 105 dB at an 
average listening position in a 3,000 cubic foot room, 
the ICS Sub 24 mk3 meets the demanding specifications 
of THX Ultra 2.

In addition to powerful and sophisticated electron-
ics and drivers, the ICS Sub 24 mk3 offers outstanding 
flexibility.  The cabinet has been designed to function in 
either a horizontal or vertical orientation and front-
mounted gain control provides easy access for subwoof-
er level adjustments.
