NVX-SMW10D4-S-Series-Subwoofers-User-Manual-fig-1 NVX-SMW10D4-S-Series-Subwoofers-User-Manual-fig-2S-Series subwoofers incorporate features designed to optimize performance, durability, and usability in a real automotive environment, including:

  • Ultra-Light & Durable Polypropylene Cone With a Reinforced Carbon Fiber Dust Cap
    Stiff and lightweight material allows the subwoofer
    to remain accurate and responsive even at high volume levels.

  • A Versatile Shallow Mounting Depth Design
    The S-Series woofers are NVX’s first-ever true shallow mount subwoofers. These subwoofers allow you to install them in a much smaller box that will take up far less space in your trunk or hatch.

  • Up to a 2.5” High-Temperature Aluminum Voice Coil
    The 2” or 2.5” voice coil provides robust power handling capabilities and excellent heat dissipation.

  • Chrome-Plated, Spring-Loaded Push Terminals Simple and secure installation.

ENCLOSURES

The enclosure designs listed will give you the best possible performance from your S-Series subwoofer.

SEALED BOX: Sealed boxes are the enclosure type we recommend for optimum performance of your S-Series Subwoofer.
A sealed enclosure offers improved acoustic suspension and cone control, which reduces distortion and improves accuracy. They are smaller than their ported counterparts and offer flatter bass responses with more consistency across the frequency range.

Recommended Enclosure Volume .75 cubic feet / 21L 1.2 cubic feet / 34L
QTC 0.797 0.854
F3 (Hz) 52.8 42.8

PORTED BOX
A ported box features a vent or port to couple the woofer’s back wave with the front wave. This results in markedly improved efficiency and low-frequency response. These enclosures are somewhat larger than the sealed alternative.
