ARC Audio SW10D2 — 10-Inch Dual 2-Ohm Ultra-Shallow Subwoofer
Choose the SW10D2 when the smaller 10-inch footprint and 2.4-inch mounting depth are what make the enclosure possible, and the amplifier plan calls for the load options created by dual 2-ohm coils. One SW10D2 can be configured for a 1- or 4-ohm final load. That is the reason to choose D2 over D4; the acoustic platform is still the same SW10.
ARC rates the SW10 at 350 watts RMS / 700 watts peak with 14.7 mm of one-way Xmax and a 0.60 cu. ft. recommended sealed volume. Compared with the SW12, the 10 gives up cone area and some low-frequency capability to solve a tighter packaging problem. Use it for under-seat, seat-back, down-fire and stealth work where a conventional-depth 10 or the larger SW12 simply does not fit correctly.
