The Audison Prima APBX 10 AS2 answers the most common bass request we get: proper low-end from a factory-looking system, without giving up the boot. It's a 10-inch subwoofer, sealed enclosure and matched amplifier in one compact box — £529.99 of very Italian engineering aimed squarely at OEM integration.
What it is
The APBX 10 AS2 is part of Audison's Prima range, designed to integrate with standard car systems rather than replace them. The active design means no separate amplifier to buy, mount or wire — signal in, bass out — and high-level inputs let it take a feed straight from a factory head unit. Power is 800w peak from the built-in amplifier driving a 250mm woofer.
How it sounds
This is grown-up bass. The sealed enclosure trades outright boom for accuracy — kick drums with edges, bass lines you can follow, and low-end that supports the music instead of arriving half a beat late. Audison's crossover and level controls make it easy to blend with your existing speakers, which is where cheap active subs usually fall apart. Turned up, it's punchy; the point is that at normal volumes it simply makes the whole system sound bigger.
Verdict
If you want maximum loudness per pound, a big ported box and mono amp remain the route. But for the driver who wants a standard-looking car that suddenly has a proper foundation under the music, the APBX 10 AS2 is the tidiest answer we sell — one box, one install, done. It's a consistent best seller here for a reason.
