Sayona Subwoofers as compared to other subwoofers;
Ampex subwoofers
Other important features;
Golden Tech Subwoofers
Golden Tech subwoofers were the main competitors of the Ampex brand.
In my own opinion, they were more powerful than the Ampex subwoofers.
I owned a movie shop and had a 2.1 channel golden tech subwoofer that was amazing.
Like the Sayona subwoofers, this brand was more advanced and in later years fully digital.
One distinct feature was a 6inch-4ohms dual coil main speaker and a bigger enclosure.
This feature brought about very nice bass output. Moreover, many of them had the more powerful TDA 2050 IC’s.
With the TDA 2050 IC’s, came a more powerful transformer to handle the load. Precisely a 2 amps 12 volts-0-12 volts or 1.5 amps 15 volts-0-15 volts.
Furthermore, the enclosure was also made of tight fitted MDF boards with a single breather vent for maximum bass.
They were 2.1 channel formation woofers. {2 external speakers and one main/woofer speaker.
Other notable features included;
- FM receiver
- Remote control
- Digital volume control
- USB, RCA, SD slots
- Blue tooth capability
- Aux, FM, USB, and SD source inputs
Honestly speaking, I am not sure if the Golden Tech Subwoofers still exist.
If you come across one and listen to the sound and get convinced it is an original, I would advise you to get it.
Sayona Subwoofers
Sayona Subwoofers are the epitome of sound success. They are appliances truly worth owning.
Sayona Woofers have made many homeowners have some nice, quality, and decent sound output without spending much.
They come in various sizes and output channels formations. By these I mean 2.1, 3.1, 4.1, and, 5.1, channel combinations.
Just to explain these output channel formations, this is a ratio of external speakers to internal speakers.
What are the channels?
A 2.1 channel Sayona Subwoofer has 1 main (bass/woofer) loudspeaker and two external (mid/high-tweeter) speakers.
On the other hand, a 5.1 channel has 1 main speaker and 5 external speakers.
Just to let you know, a 5.1 channel is more advanced because it mostly features an inbuilt surround system for better and optimized sound output.
With this comes several additional features like a bigger enclosure, powerful transformer and of course a higher price.
If not fully prepared to get a home theatre system, a genuine Sayona subwoofer would be a good option.
As with many other subwoofers in Kenya, Sayona subwoofers feature the TDA 2030 IC’s.
However, if lucky enough one could come across the TDA 2050 IC’s made ones though, a rare thing.
Sayona Subwoofers have between 4 to 8-inch dual coil main woofers.
Furthermore, they have powerful 2 amps 12-0-12 or 2 amps 15-0-15 volts transformers.
Sayona woofers have a great 4 set power capacitors rectifier for maximum current transfer and voltage stabilization.
Other notable features of Sayona Subwoofers are;
- Preset equalizer
- Inbuilt surround system
- FM receiver {with scan and store memory}
- More Audio codec’s play capability
- USB, SD card slots
- RCA to stereo cable capability
- RCA cable capability
- Remote control
- Digital sound control

Greetings,how do i know sayona sht 1148bt is original,at sayona shop it retail at 11k bt along streets at 8k.tell how to distinguish
Thank you for this question. With so many counterfeits and sub-standard electronic appliances, the number one advice to you would be, Kindly buy from the genuine dealer. This because the dealer will give you a warranty just in case. Another advantage is that genuine dealers have their own repair stations thus making it easy for you to get a qualified technician check your appliance. I hope this helps.
Confirm your genuine dealers in Eldoret or Nairobi town?
Hello and thank you for this question. We are based in Nairobi along Luthuli avenue.
Are supermarket like woolmatt a genuine dealer?
In my own opinion, I would rate supermarkets as the second. My number one choice is always the dealer.

Hi, I’m using the Sayona sht1062bt and it gets warm at the back even when I leave it on stabdby during the night. Could this mean that its using high power consumption? Output power is advertised as 80W
No. That is normal. The heat emanates from the transformer.
