Description


Earthquake Sound brand icon

Earthquake Sound SWS-12X

Earthquake Sound Corporation is the original inventor of the Shallow Woofer System (SWS), which revolutionized how we experience bass in compact spaces. The SWS 6.5, 8, 10, and 12-inch low-profile subwoofers embody this innovative technology, enabling massive bass from a small, shallow-mount application. With a unique inverted-cone design, the SWS maximizes excursion capability, delivering deep bass performance where conventional subwoofers can't.

Pioneered by Joseph Sahyoun and safeguarded by multiple global patents, the SWS's low-profile, patented design provides the flexibility to place the subwoofer in almost any location. Its intelligent design shifts the flexible suspension components, including the cone and spider, to the side, allowing an elevated motor while reducing the speaker's mounting depth. This creates space for enhanced excursion capability, resulting in powerful bass performance that defies its compact form. More excursion directly translates to more impactful sound, providing a premium audio experience without compromising space.

The SWS series establishes a benchmark for shallow-mount subwoofers, delivering an exceptional blend of innovative technology, a low-profile design, and impressive bass performance. Suitable for automotive, marine, or home audio setups, the SWS transforms the possibilities for compact areas, making it possible to achieve remarkable bass in any location.

good subwoofer

everyone told me shallow mount sub was not the way to go, but that was all the space I was allowed. After installing the sws, no one believed me that it was actually a shallow mount. Nice job earthquake.

Good so far.

I just got an email that said ive had this sub for 6 months. Sounds about right i guess. It sounds great. I mounted it into a sony slim box and it seems to hit with a deeper bass than the sony. Doesn't buzz as much either, nice and clean bass.
