Memphis SRX1040V 10" Street Reference 4-Ohm Subwoofer

The Memphis SRX1040V is a 10-inch Street Reference car subwoofer designed to add dedicated low-frequency output to an aftermarket audio system. Its single 4-ohm voice coil configuration suits systems using an amplifier stable at a 4-ohm speaker load. With 300 watts RMS power handling, it is sized for practical daily-driver bass upgrades.

This subwoofer is intended for listeners who want more bass presence than factory speakers can typically provide without moving to a large, high-power setup. Its 10-inch format can be a useful choice where installation space is more limited than a 12-inch design allows. The SRX1040V works as a component subwoofer and requires a separate enclosure and amplifier.

A polypropylene cone and rubber surround provide the moving assembly used to reproduce bass frequencies. The progressive poly cotton spider supports cone movement, while the anodized aluminum voice coil former is part of the motor assembly. Together, these construction choices support the subwoofer's rated power handling and everyday system use.

The SRX1040V is optimized for use in either sealed or ported enclosures. A sealed enclosure can be selected for a compact installation, while a ported design offers another enclosure option for a system builder. Enclosure selection should account for available vehicle space and the intended system design.

Its 4-ohm single voice coil makes amplifier matching straightforward: use an amplifier channel or mono amplifier rated to operate at 4 ohms. The subwoofer uses 12 AWG compression terminals for speaker-wire connection. It is a suitable foundation for a single-subwoofer system or for a matched multi-subwoofer installation when amplifier load calculations are properly planned.

Key Features

• 300W RMS Power Handling: Supports amplifier matching around its continuous 300-watt rating.
• Single 4-Ohm Voice Coil: Provides a straightforward nominal 4-ohm speaker load.
• Polypropylene Cone: Forms a durable cone assembly for bass reproduction.
• Rubber Surround: Supports controlled cone movement during playback.
• Sealed Or Ported Compatibility: Allows use with either enclosure approach.
• 12 AWG Compression Terminals: Provide secure connections for appropriately sized speaker wire.

Design & Installation

The SRX1040V uses a polypropylene cone, rubber surround, progressive poly cotton spider, anodized aluminum voice coil former, and stamped steel frame. These are functional components of its 10-inch Street Reference design. The subwoofer has a single voice coil and a nominal 4-ohm impedance.

Allow for a 9.17-inch cutout diameter and 4.48 inches of mounting depth when planning an enclosure. Connect it to an amplifier that is compatible with a 4-ohm load and keep amplifier power selection aligned with its 300-watt RMS rating. An enclosure, amplifier, wiring, and installation hardware are required separately unless supplied as part of a retailer-specific bundle.
