Ultra-Shallow Performance Without Compromise
The Prodigy Audio NB3-10d4 is a masterclass in space-efficient engineering. Designed for the most restrictive environments, this 10-inch shallow-mount subwoofer features a remarkably slim 3.000-inch mounting depth. Despite its low profile, it delivers a massive 600W RMS, powered by a high-strength motor with a BL of 23.365. With a refined Qts of 0.407 and an FS of 36.406Hz, the NB3-10d4 provides the punchy, authoritative low-end that enthusiasts demand in applications where a traditional driver simply will not fit.
Precision Control and Thermal Integrity
The NB3-10d4 is built to handle heavy daily use, utilizing a 151.63g moving mass (Mms) and a specialized suspension system with a Cms of 74.178. This configuration ensures the 2.5-inch voice coil remains centered and controlled even at its 11mm Xmax limit. To maintain performance during extended play, the motor architecture is designed to manage thermal energy effectively within the compact cast-aluminum housing, ensuring the NB3-10d4 delivers consistent, uncompressed output in high-pressure, small-volume environments.
Optimized for Compact Enclosures
Engineered for the modern installer, the NB3-10d4 works best in a sealed enclosure of 0.75 to 1.0 ft³, per Prodigy, making it the perfect choice for under-seat truck boxes and stealth side-panel installs. With a 9.125-inch cutout and 10.250-inch overall diameter, it fits seamlessly into custom baffles. Its low 0.10 ft³ displacement allows you to maximize the internal air volume of your enclosure, ensuring the Dual 4-ohm NB3-10d4 translates every watt of power into clean, impactful acoustic energy.

🎯 Recommended Enclosure: Can work in either sealed or ported, though usually leans toward sealed. Consider your goals: sealed for accuracy, ported for efficiency and output.
Pro Tip: EBP is just one factor in enclosure design. Always use complete Thiele-Small parameters and modeling software for optimal results. Our custom enclosures are engineered specifically for each subwoofer's parameters.
Which to Choose?
- Choose Sealed for tighter, punchier, and more accurate sound, or if space is limited
- Choose Ported for max output, deep bass, and high efficiency, especially for genres like hip-hop
Efficiency Bandwidth Product (EBP)
What is EBP?
The Efficiency Bandwidth Product (EBP) is calculated by dividing the subwoofer's resonant frequency (Fs) by its electrical damping (Qes). This single number helps predict which enclosure type will work best with your subwoofer.
How to Use EBP
- EBP < 50: Ideal for Sealed enclosures
- EBP 50-100: Can work in either, though usually leans toward sealed
- EBP > 100: Ideal for Ported enclosures
Enclosure Specifications
| Enclosure | Volume | Tuning |
|---|---|---|
| Sealed (Recommended) | 0.75 - 1.0 ft³ | N/A |
| Ported | 0.8 - 1.0 ft³ | 35 Hz |
