NEXT GEN PERFORMANCE
The redesigned M2 Element Ready™ subwoofers bring unmatched reliability and deep, powerful bass, with enhanced responsiveness and superior thermal management. Built to handle any adventure, they were engineered to endure the toughest conditions.
The subwoofers are designed to pair with the Rockford Fosgate RF Connect App and Color Optix™ controller (PMX-RGB required) through its Deutsch™ and Amphenol™ connectors integrated into the basket. To streamline installation, M2 subwoofers are equipped with a VersaSwitch™ to make changing impedance between 2Ω and 8Ω as easy as flipping a switch.
Since this subwoofer is optimized for Infinite Baffle installations, a mounting baffle is required to adequately isolate the front and rear wavelengths.
The Marine 10” Subwoofer Includes:
• (1) Sport grille insert
• (1) Stainless steel grille insert
• (1) Deutsch speaker pigtail
• (1) Deutsch ColorOptix™ pigtail (to hard-wire one color)
