New Type-R SubwoofersWinner of a CES Innovations 2010 Design and Engineering Award for the In-Vehicle Audio category, the new SWR-T10 (10-inch) and SWR-T12 (12-inch) Type-R thin subwoofers are the ideal solution for car audio enthusiasts who crave a slim profile without compromising performance, at price points that will not drain their bank accounts.
With surface mounting depths of 3.25 inches for the 10-inch model and 3.5 inches for the 12-inch model, the thin subwoofers are ideal for installation in tight spaces such as pickup trucks, compact cars and even in door panels. An advanced motor and suspension design delivers the highest X-max (greater than 16mm), SPL output and sound quality in the flat subwoofer category. Both models offer 600W RMS power handling, which makes them the perfect subwoofers to power Alpine’s new second-generation PDX digital amplifiers.
The redesigned, fourth-generation Type-R subwoofers boast several enhanced features to achieve even cleaner, deeper bass with great low frequency extension and clarity. This popular subwoofer line consists of the 10-inch (SWR-1023D and SWR-1043D) and 12-inch (SWR-1223D and SWR-1243D) models. A shallower surface mounting depth – 5.875 inches for the 10-inch models and 6.375 inches for the 12-inch models – means more installation flexibility for the ideal sound system set up. The 65 mm voice coil allows for increased power handling to 600W RMS for best performance with Alpine’s new PDX digital amplifiers. Exclusive third-generation High-Amplitude Multi Roll (HAMR) engineering delivers cooler operation, longer life and tight, accurate bass, while ultra-long linear excursion provides dynamic, realistic sound. The single piece cast frame and shorting sleeve provide minimum inductance variance and reduced thermal compression. The radial fins are designed to cool the entire motor assembly, resulting in maximum cooling of the voice coils to reduce thermal compression.
