Key Features & Benefits
- DDC-coated paper/wool cone: A stiff cone helps keep movement controlled for low-distortion bass.
- Large roll foam surround: Supports linear cone movement and controlled excursion at higher output.
- Vented coil cooling: The 2-inch BASV voice coil former is vented to help dissipate heat during extended bass use.
- Stamped steel basket: The non-resonant, DDC-coated basket includes perimeter aero-vent cooling to help reduce mechanical noise and temperature rise.
- Compact enclosure options: Designed for small sealed or ported enclosures, giving you flexibility when planning a space-conscious build.

Why Choose This Product?
The S-1004 pairs a compact enclosure design with substantial power handling for a space-conscious bass system. Its 33 Hz lower frequency response and 9 mm Xmax support bass fundamentals, while the cooling features are designed for demanding listening sessions.
The 4-ohm impedance gives you an important matching point when selecting an amplifier. Check its output at that load and compare it with the subwoofer’s RMS rating to plan a suitable system.
Installation & Compatibility Notes
Allow for the 9 1/8-inch cutout diameter and 5.25-inch mounting depth when checking available space. The driver is designed for small sealed or ported enclosures; confirm your enclosure is appropriate for the S-1004 before installation.
Match the amplifier and subwoofer at the stated 4-ohm impedance, and use the RMS power rating when assessing amplifier output. The supplied details do not give an enclosure volume or tuning frequency, so do not assume a specific box design.

Power-matched options for one subwoofer or one complete loaded enclosure. We aim to include same-brand choices when their ratings qualify.
Loading amplifier suggestions…
Suggestions use 75–125% of the subwoofer’s RMS rating at the wiring load shown. Check wiring, enclosure needs, electrical capacity and installation space. Set gain and filters correctly to avoid overpowering the subwoofer. Buying more than one subwoofer changes the match.
