Skar's 10 inch at 38.0 Hz, a Qts of 0.70, 16.5 litres of Vas and 500 W RMS. This cabinet gives it 0.77 cubic feet net behind a 2.25 inch three-layer baffle, vented at 38.0 Hz through a 15.6 square inch slot beside the woofer, for an anechoic F3 of 34.7 Hz in a 30 by 14 by 9.0 inch front-firing box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThreaded insert kit ships with this box.\u003c\/strong\u003e Skar Audio does not publish the mounting hole locations for the VS-10, so we cannot install the threaded inserts before it ships. The threaded insert kit comes in the box instead: inserts sized to the woofer, the correct drill bit, 2.5 inch allen-head screws, an allen key and woofer gasket tape. You set the inserts when you mount the woofer, and this box ships with one kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eSealed, the VS-10 needs 28.95 cubic feet net to reach a Qtc of 0.707. Vented, it trades that for deeper extension. The slot is gated at 600 W, 1.2 times Skar's rating: the channel runs 20.8 m\/s and the mouth 10.7, and the cone peaks at 8.0 of its 9.1 mm with the subsonic filter in place. Skar's own ported recommendation is 1.60 cubic feet at 33 Hz, before driver and port displacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eWhat makes it Professional\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-grid\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"df-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eThree-layer baffle, flush mount\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree layers of 3\/4 inch Langboard Elite make a 2.25 inch\n    front. The outer layer is routed to the flange, so the woofer sits flush with the face; the two layers behind it\n    carry the mounting hardware and the load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"df-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSkar Audio logo acrylic\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA glossy black acrylic insert with the Skar Audio mark sits in the outer\n    layer beside the woofer.

The channel runs 4.00 inches along its wall and turns once along the back wall for another 22.00 inches, which is why a 38.0 Hz tuning fits a 9.00 inch deep box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"df-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy this is a Professional build\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe VS-10 also builds in the Performance Optimized ported wedge and ported down-fire, the smaller and cheaper boxes. The Professional cabinet is the step up for it: a 2.25 inch three-layer baffle with the woofer flush in the outer layer, and a slot port gated at 600 W.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"df-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat the price covers\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery Professional cabinet is priced the same way, by its size: this one is 2.19 cubic feet outside. Delivery to the 48 states is inside the price; it ships as a 43 lb parcel and checkout adds nothing. The Performance Optimized 10 inch ported wedge is $369.99. The $-56 difference is the larger box and the port this driver needs to run at its rating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eThe cabinet\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e30.00\" W x 14.00\" H x 9.00\" D external. Two windowed braces run front to back either side of the woofer, clearing the cutout by two and a half inches. The box ships dry: polyfill detunes a ported alignment. Inside the 30 by 14 Professional envelope for a single 10, 9.0 inches deep. 10.67 inch frame, flush in the outer baffle layer, 9.07 inch cutout, 3.89 inches of mounting depth. It ships as a parcel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eSkar publishes a full Thiele-Small table for the VS-10 on its product page, including a one-way Xmax of 9.1 mm. Some of it is softer than it looks. Skar gives no driver displacement anywhere, so 0.046 cubic feet is our estimate from comparable 10 inch woofers; it moves the tuning by a fraction of a hertz. Skar does not say how the Xmax was measured, so we size port and power against it rather than past it. Also: the printed Qts of 0.70 sits 6 percent from the 0.66 its own Qes and Qms reproduce. Tuning includes a 1.5 Hz fold loss that is an estimate, not a bench measurement. Skar Audio does not publish the mounting hole locations for the VS-10, so we cannot install the threaded inserts before it ships. The threaded insert kit comes in the box instead: inserts sized to the woofer, the correct drill bit, 2.5 inch allen-head screws, an allen key and woofer gasket tape. You set the inserts when you mount the woofer, and this box ships with one kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eThe numbers to respect\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \n  \u003cp\u003eSet a 30 Hz subsonic filter, 24 dB per octave.
