Description
PW8D2 — 8-Inch Echo Pro Subwoofer — DVC 2Ω — 400W RMS
PW8D2 is the next step when a 6.5-inch sub is too compromised but a 10-inch enclosure still takes more room than the vehicle can give up. The 8-inch PW provides noticeably more cone area while keeping the box practical for trucks, compact cargo areas and custom under-seat/side-panel builds.
Choose the D2 version when one sub needs to land at 1 ohm or a pair is being planned around 2 ohms. SMS would match it to an amplifier that can deliver clean power around the 400W RMS rating at the final wired load. If one 8 needs to present 2 ohms instead, PW8D4 is the correct coil option.

BASS SYSTEM FIT
Where this fits in the build
The subwoofer is only one part of the bass system. Enclosure volume and alignment, final impedance, amplifier power, vehicle space and electrical support all affect the result.
Plan aroundChoose the bass target and usable space first.
Match itMatch the enclosure to the driver instead of treating the box as an afterthought.
Finish itMatch final load, amplifier and electrical support to the complete bass plan.
