Got your back. Got your bottom.
Ample class-D continuous power means the amp is never the limiting factor. Higher output voltages deliver impact on peaks, and sustained output keeps the lows liquid. Crushes at full power, night after night.
A tasty layer cake of limiting.
Multi-stage limiters (thermal, excursion, and clipping) protect the drivers, and you won't hear them working. Woofers stay safe at any input level while transients stay intact. Gets silly, stays safe.
Worldwide power, safe from rain.
Auto-sensing 100–240VAC supply is compatible worldwide. IP65 waterproof connectors and sealed inputs keep the electronics safe in unpredictable weather.
Ready-to-rumble Birch cabinet.
Anti-standing-wave baffles and pass-through dampers reduce upper resonances in the cabinet, while oversized ports maximize low-frequency output at high SPL.
Presets for every venue and gig.
96 kHz DSP with 9 onboard presets. Switch in real-time with zero dropout. Store up to 100 over the network with ControlBASS. Dial your repeat venues in and save the preset for a quicker setup next gig.
Get Deep.

From the Family
The ZV28-MK3 in its natural environment,
mainstages, epic clubs, off-the-grid festivals and backyard parties.
That's what they said.
Adam Paz
For those small, intimate gigs—no more than 200 people—I’ll often choose between rolling out 2 ZV28s or 2 Krakens, running them at just 60%. Since I lay the ZV28s on their sides, the footprint is practically the same either way. And man, they sound so good even at 60%. I didn’t even turn the Diamons all the way up because the space was so small, but I still had plenty of headroom to drop some massive low end when the moment called for it. Those drops… when I gave it a little extra power—the look on people’s faces was priceless. Smiles all around.

The only subwoofers I know of that can continuously hit 21Hz at audible levels without breaking a sweat or tripping a breaker. Whether they are playing soft and quiet or you’re pushing them to the limit, they retain their superior sonic character. Genre doesn’t matter, everything from the deepest pipe organ to the bassiest EDM song sounds phenomenal. You can’t beat the frequency range or the sound quality.
Andrew Cosby
BASSBOSS ZV28 is an absolutely insane subwoofer. Single best piece of sound equipment I’ve ever heard!

My favorite speakers ever. I take these places where I am booked for parties and guarantee the host that the police WILL come, just a matter of time Plug and Play baby! I’ll take the Pepsi challenge with these bad boys against any other, any day of the week.
