A compact 8-inch subwoofer with 200 W and reflex loading
Totem Kin Sub 8 uses an 8-inch reinforced-fibreglass woofer, 200 W Class D amplification and a ported cabinet with stated extension down to 29 Hz.
It is the Kin subwoofer for users wanting deeper bass without occupying much floor space. Volume, phase and crossover are adjustable, while stereo RCA and LFE inputs allow connection to either a stereo system or an AV processor.
Key features

- 200 W Class D amplifier.
- Slot-ported enclosure.
- Specified frequency response of 29 Hz-200 Hz.

A reflex design built around a small enclosure
The slot port extends woofer output without requiring a large cabinet. The resulting footprint suits living rooms, bedrooms and advanced desktop systems where a larger subwoofer would be difficult to accommodate.
Adjustment for stereo and cinema systems
The variable crossover allows the operating range to be matched to the main speakers, while continuous 0-180 degree phase adjustment helps compensate for relative subwoofer position in the room. The LFE input instead allows an AV processor to manage bass filtering directly.
Compared with Kin Sub 10
Sub 10 adds a 10-inch woofer, 300 W, sealed loading, dedicated EQ and optional wireless operation. Kin Sub 8 remains smaller and more accessible, making it suitable for small and medium rooms or systems needing support below compact speakers without pursuing maximum output. Low-profile isolation feet help reduce vibration transferred into the floor structure, useful in apartments or on floors and furniture that are particularly sensitive to mechanical energy. Dimensions of roughly 28.5 x 26.5 x 29.2 cm make it easy to place beside furniture or under a desk without taking over a large area of floor space.
