About the Alpine R2-W10D2
Maximum bass output
Maximum bass output
With over 40 years of experience, Alpine has the know-how to deliver the kind of hard-hitting bass you want. The R2-W10D4 10" sub capitalizes on this knowledge with a new motor structure with double-stacked magnets for deeper bass and tighter sound. Its Kevlar-reinforced pulp cone features a durable HAMR Santoprene™ surround that allows for huge amounts of excursion, and an oversized poly ceramic dust cap supplies rigidity to keep the sound tight. It's the perfect sub for bassheads that want the best of both worlds: accurate response and otherworldly thump.
A versatile performer
The R2-W10D4 handles up to 750 watts RMS, so it's ready for your high-powered amp. Its dual oversized 2-ohm voice coils allow you to draw maximum power from your mono amp. Since it works well in sealed or ported enclosures you'll enjoy your music the way you like to hear it.
Note: If you are wiring this DVC sub for lower impedance, make sure that your amp is compatible.

Features
Kevlar Reinforced Pulp Cone: This Alpine R-Series subwoofer has a two-piece structural parabolic Kevlar reinforced pulp cone. Kevlar adds strength and tear resistance to the woofer cone while maintaining the benefits of a pulp cone design. There is also an oversized inverted polypropylene/ceramic composite dust cap, which increases rigidity and reduces cone distortion at extreme volume levels.
HAMRS: The woofer features a High Amplitude Multi Roll Surround (HAMRS), made of Santoprene Rubber, that allows a large linear excursion and greater SPL. The HAMRS design allows extreme excursions without sacrificing valuable cone area.
Progressive Spider: The progressive spider has reinforced layer tinsel leads to ensure reliable and consistent control of the tinsel leads and eliminate any mechanical noise or interference often seen in high excursion cone designs.
Compound Radius Curve Pole Geometry: Alpine's Patented Compound Radius Curve pole geometry ensures a symmetrical magnetic field, while optimizing flux density to reduce distortion and further improve power handling and output.
Dual Voice Coils: For system flexibility, the woofer has two 2Ω voice coils. When the voice coils are wired in parallel, the woofer presents a 1Ω load; when wired in series, the woofer presents a 4Ω load.
Spring Terminals: The spring post terminals are all located on one side of the woofer. The terminals will accept bare wire up to 8-gauge, pin connectors, or single banana plugs.
Jumpers: Included with the woofer are two voice coil terminal jumpers, allowing you to easily wire the voice coils in parallel (for a 1Ω load) or series (for a 4Ω load).
Enclosure Compatibility
Sealed Box Volume: The recommended sealed box volume (gross) range is from 0.48 to 0.93 ft³ cubic feet, with 0.58 ft³ cubic feet being the ideal size.
Ported Box Volume: The recommended ported box volume range is from 0.83 to 1.38 ft³. The ideal size is 1.33 ft³ using a slot port measuring 10" (width) x 1½" (height) x 19½" (length), resulting in a tuning frequency of 37 Hz.
