Space and fitment
Measure the boot or cabin space with the seats and boot floor in their normal positions, and allow room for the terminal and wiring. The SPC-W10 is 19.10 in wide, 12.36 in high and 4.095 in / 6.276 in deep (top / bottom). Secure it so it cannot move under braking: a loose enclosure is a safety hazard and causes rattles.
Amplifier matching and set-up
At 2 ohm, AudioControl's EPIC750 delivers 500 W RMS and the A800.1 600 W, so set the gain to keep the enclosure within its 400 W RMS rating.
As a sealed enclosure, it does not need a subsonic filter for port protection; use the low-pass filter to blend it with the front speakers and avoid excessive bass boost.

Price and value in India
At the time of writing (October 2026), VA3 Car Studio lists the SPC-W10 at ₹50,990, 15% below the MRP of ₹59,990. The price includes a finished, matched enclosure, which saves custom box-building time. Prices can change, so the product page always shows the current price.
Verdict: who should shortlist the SPC-W10
Shortlist the SPC-W10 if you want a finished, matched subwoofer enclosure without a custom build, and you have confirmed the dimensions fit. Pair it with a mono amplifier that is stable at 2 ohm.
