10 Inch Subwoofers

10 inch subwoofers are the all-rounder: deeper than an 8 inch, and small enough for most hatchbacks and saloons.

Choose a raw driver for a custom box, a ready-loaded enclosure, or an active subwoofer with the amplifier built in. Pair a driver with a mono amplifier, browse all car subwoofers, or have your sub fitted at our Nottingham workshop.

10 Inch Subwoofers FAQs

Q: What size box does a 10 inch subwoofer need?

A: A typical sealed box for a 10 inch sub is around 0.6 to 1 cubic foot. Each driver's Specification tab or manual gives the recommended sealed and ported volumes.

Q: Should I buy a 10 inch sub driver or an enclosed sub?

A: A driver needs a box and an amplifier. Loaded enclosures come ready-boxed, and active subs also have the amplifier built in, which is the simplest option.

Q: What is a dual voice coil subwoofer?

A: A dual voice coil (DVC) sub has two coils that can be wired in series or parallel, giving more ways to match your amplifier's impedance.

Q: What amplifier do I need?

A: Match the sub's RMS power rating to the amplifier's RMS output at the final impedance, not the peak figure. A mono amplifier is designed for the job.

Q: Can CEN fit my subwoofer?

A: Yes. We supply and fit subwoofers and amplifiers at our Beeston, Nottingham workshop.
