The Extremely Versatile SWS Subwoofers

The SWS-10X by Earthquake Sound features a mounting depth of 2-11/16". With a depth this small the applications for this woofer are endless. This shallow-woofer-system series subwoofer is perfect for those with limited space but that still want some bass in their car. The woofer features a light weight resistant PVC cone and a long-lasting UV treated high-roll composite foam surround for added rigidity, stiffness, longevity and increase power output and performance. Don't let the size of the woofer fool you into thinking it's not powerful, with an Xmax linear excursion of 28mm this woofer will hit low-frequencies with accuracy and precision for a clean, crisp, and responsive bass reproduction. Although often imitated the SWS's 3 protected U.S patents assure that it's never duplicated. If you have 3" of space to spare then there is no other option than the SWS series subwoofer.

Customer Testimonial

SonicElectronix.com definitely has excellent customer support. I ordered a subwoofer from them and realized I had gotten an incompatible sub for my amp. I called the Customer Commitment Team and Harry helped me pick out the correct sub, figure out the wiring diagram and got it shipped that day.
