Description
The ARC Audio AS250 is a matched pair of compact 2.5-inch wideband midrange speakers for active two-way and three-way systems. Its shallow 1.38-inch mounting depth and breakaway mounting tabs make it suitable for factory dash locations, A-pillars, upper doors, and custom pods where installation space is limited.
The stamped-steel chassis carries a Y35 ferrite motor and a 21 mm CCAW voice coil. A copper shorting ring helps control inductance and motor-related non-linearity. The cone combines aramid fiber, coconut fiber, and extracted pulp to balance stiffness with low moving mass across the driver’s wide operating range.
The AS250 is rated for 75 watts RMS, 150 watts maximum, and an operating range of 230 Hz to 14 kHz. It is intended for active or externally crossed systems and does not include passive crossovers or grilles.
