Description

Big Sound. Small Footprint.
The DLS ACW10i is a low-profile active subwoofer designed to bring weight and presence back into car audio systems that lack midbass impact. Based on the long-running ACW10 platform, the ACW10i introduces updated electronics, improved power stability and smarter installation features, all while keeping a compact and discreet form factor. With a slim enclosure and a 10″ driver, it delivers a fuller, more confident sound without taking up valuable space.

For the Frequencies That Matter
Many car audio systems struggle in the 70 to 100 Hz range. It’s a common weak point caused by speaker placement, cabin acoustics and limited door speaker output. ACW10i is built to address exactly this area. The Kick Bass function reinforces this critical region, restoring punch and physical presence to music. Drums gain weight, basslines feel more connected, and the overall sound becomes more engaging. It’s a focused solution to a widespread problem, and one that works naturally within the system.

Easy to Fit, Easy to Integrate
ACW10i is developed for modern vehicles and real installations. High-level input with Automatic Turn-On keeps installation clean, while Smart Load Circuitry ensures compatibility with factory systems that use advanced monitoring and protection circuits.
A new quick power connector for power, ground and remote simplifies installation and saves time, especially when working in tight spaces under seats or behind panels.
EMI and RFI filtering help maintain a clean signal path, even in electrically complex environments.

Solid Outside, Tuned Inside
The sealed enclosure is compact, rigid and quiet. Internally, the system is tuned for controlled output with a natural emphasis where it matters most. The Bass Optimize Circuit allows adjustment around 45 Hz, making it easy to integrate ACW10i with different speaker setups and cabin sizes. The result is bass that supports the music.

Flexible by Design
ACW10i can be used as a standalone bass solution or as part of a larger system. Place it under a seat, near the firewall or use multiple units across the cabin. Its size and focused output make placement straightforward and effective. For systems that need deeper low-end extension, ACW10i pairs naturally with larger subwoofers such as DLS PESB28, letting each component work in its optimal range.
