Velodyne CT-100 Subwoofer (Active / Powered) Selling my CT-100 due to simply not using it anymore. This is a weapon of a subwoofer, literally hundreds of reviews about it online. It's big, heavy and hits ridiculously hard. I was never able to run it more than 2/9.I purchased it a few years ago from the original owner, it's been The Speaker Hospital for a service in 2019,, done prior to me purchasing it.In exceptionally good condition for its age, functionally not an issue, never even felt it get warm. I assume its got many more years of life left in it and I'm looking for it's new home. Due to
The A$300 asking price sits just above the 75th percentile of A$285, making it ambitious but not unreasonable given the Velodyne CT-100’s reputation as a compact, high-performance subwoofer. While not a bargain, it aligns with the upper end of the typical used market (A$235–A$285), and the clean, original-owner condition helps justify the extra cost.
This sub is well-regarded for its tight bass response and built-in crossover, making it ideal for small to medium rooms without needing a separate processor. Its 100W power and 10-inch driver deliver surprising depth, and listings like this—clean, unused, and from a known owner—are increasingly rare. With no missing accessories or known failure points reported, it’s a solid buying opportunity for enthusiasts seeking reliable, original-spec performance.

Velodyne Acoustics traces its origins to 1983, when founder David Hall launched the brand in Silicon Valley, the epicenter of high-tech innovation. Hall, an engineer with a vision for revolutionizing home audio, introduced the groundbreaking ULD-18 subwoofer featuring a patented accelerometer-based High Gain Servo system. This technology delivered unprecedented control over low-frequency reproduction, setting a new standard for bass performance in music and movies and establishing Velodyne as a pioneer in powered subwoofers.
The brand's product focus remains laser-sharp on subwoofers, with over 200 patents driving innovations like the world's first DSP-controlled model in 2003. Velodyne specializes in high-quality active subwoofers optimized for hi-fi stereo systems and home cinema, emphasizing deep, distortion-free bass that integrates seamlessly into demanding setups. While not diversifying into speakers, amplifiers, or other categories, their designs prioritize technical precision for audiophiles seeking foundational low-end authority.
Velodyne holds a commanding reputation as the world's leading subwoofer manufacturer for over 40 years, positioned firmly in the high-end market for discerning hi-fi and custom install buyers. Acquired by Germany's Audio Reference in 2019 and now exclusively imported in the U.S. by Origin Acoustics via custom channels, the brand continues to embody bass perfection, blending American engineering heritage with European stewardship.
