Couldn't Load Pickup availability
The Vibe Black Air BA10D2-V5 is a 10″ dual 2-ohm subwoofer from Vibe's Black Air range, rated at 750w RMS with 800w power handling, ±15mm of excursion, and a double-stacked ferrite motor.
Key specifications
- Driver size: 10″
- RMS power: 750w
- Power handling: 800w
- Voice coil impedance: Dual 2 ohm
- Excursion: ±15mm
- Motor: Double-stacked ferrite — two 50-ounce magnets, ~2.8 kg total
- Force factor: 14.7 T·m
- Voice coil height: 40mm
- Suspension: Dual spider
The BA10D2-V5 uses a dual 2-ohm voice coil, making it compatible with most amplifiers. It is suited to a compact sealed enclosure, which keeps installation practical where boot space is limited.
Built to hit hard
Excursion — how far the cone travels while staying controlled — is ±15mm. For a 10″ driver that is substantial, and paired with 800w of power handling it allows the BA10D2-V5 to deliver bass that is felt as well as heard.
A serious motor
The double-stacked ferrite motor uses two 50-ounce magnets totalling close to 2.8 kg, producing a force factor of 14.7 T·m. That strength grips the heavy cone tightly, so bass starts and stops with the signal rather than blooming after it, and sustains the current 800w demands.
Long-throw, kept linear
The voice coil is wound to 40mm, keeping it engaged in the magnetic gap across the full ±15mm of travel. Two spiders hold the cone moving straight rather than rocking at the extremes of its stroke, keeping distortion low at volume.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Do I need an amplifier for this subwoofer?
A: Yes, unless it is an active (powered) subwoofer with a built-in amplifier. Passive subwoofers need an external amplifier matched to the RMS power and impedance shown in the Specification tab.
Q: What size enclosure does this subwoofer need?
A: The recommended enclosure volume is listed in the Specification tab where the manufacturer provides it. As a rule, sealed enclosures give tighter, more accurate bass while ported enclosures deliver more output. Contact CEN if you would like a recommendation for your build.
Q: What does RMS power mean?
A: RMS is the continuous power a subwoofer can handle, and it is the number that matters when matching an amplifier. Peak or max figures describe short bursts only. Match your amplifier output to the RMS rating in the Specification tab.
Q: Sealed or ported enclosure - which should I choose?
A: Sealed boxes are compact and produce tight, controlled bass suited to sound quality builds. Ported boxes are larger and produce more output at low frequencies, suited to those who want maximum impact. Either works well when built to the recommended volume.
Q: Can CEN build or supply an enclosure and fit everything?
A: Yes. CEN supplies enclosures and offers professional installation from our Nottingham premises, including amplifier wiring. Contact us to discuss your build.
Q: How shallow is the BLACKAIR12D2S-V3?
A: It has a mounting depth of 80mm (3.1 inch) and a mounting diameter of 267mm (10.5 inch).
Q: How much power does the BLACKAIR12D2S-V3 handle?
A: It is rated at 300W RMS and 900W peak, with dual 2 ohm voice coils.
Q: How should I wire a dual 2 ohm subwoofer?
A: The BLACKAIR12D2S-V3 has two 2 ohm voice coils, which can be wired in series for a 4 ohm load or in parallel for a 1 ohm load. Choose the option that matches your amplifier.
