Product Research

Features

Woofer Cone: Pioneer uses an IMPP (Injection Molded Polypropylene) woofer cone. This process of cone molding assures a uniform cone thickness for superior linearity and clarity.

Terminals: The spring post terminals will accept pin connectors, single banana plugs, or bare wire up to 10 gauge.

Sealed Box Volume: Pioneer recommends a sealed enclosure with an internal volume between 0.85 ft³ and 1.75 ft³, with an ideal volume of 1.25 ft³. Sealed enclosures provide the most control over the woofer, will handle a lot of power, and provide accurate sonic reproduction, making them suitable to all types of music.

Ported Box Volume: The recommended ported box volume ranges from 1.25 ft³ to 2.0 ft³, with the ideal size being 1.5 ft³, using a single 3" diameter x 6½" long port. Ported (or vented) enclosures typically provide better overall efficiency than sealed, maximizing bass output for a given amplifier.

Free-Air: The woofer can also be mounted in free air to a baffle board (infinite baffle, no enclosure). When mounted in free air, the power handling is reduced by 75% (to 125 watts).

Customer Q&A

3 questions already asked

Q
On what bases are you characterizing the TS-A301S/D4 as free air subwoofer? Pioneer is not characterizing it as free air!!
ramzy  Jun 08, 2023
1 answer
A
That is correct, Ramzy. According to the Pioneer manual a sealed or ported box is advised with this speaker for best results, and in the Pioneer documentation it states that the woofer can also be mounted in free air to a baffle board (infinite baffle, no enclosure). When mounted in free air, the power handling is reduced by 75% (to 125 watts) and they do also note that with insufficient damping overpowering damage can result. I hope this helps clarify!

Q
If the SVC is identical to the DVC, how come parameters like cone excursion is different?

Greetings Ramzy. I did not see anything on this subwoofer page stating the SVC and DVC are identical, but I could see a lot of similarities. If we do have that somewhere, we would sure correct that. As far as the why, that is a question for the Pioneer engineering department. They would have the best answer on this question.

Thanks for your question. For information on selecting the best amp for your subs I would recommend reaching out to an advisor by phone (1-800-324-9695) or online chat. They will be able to help determine the differences between the amp models and help you make the best choice for your system.
