Subwoofer Musway MWS1044

Musway MWS1044 is a 10\" flat-profile subwoofer designed for installations with limited mounting depth where conventional subwoofers cannot be used. Thanks to its construction, it enables the creation of enclosures in places with limited space, for example in a double floor, side panels, or other hidden installations. Despite its very compact dimensions, it retains the ability to reproduce a full bass foundation and represents a practical solution for more demanding installations. The subwoofer's design is specifically adapted to low installation depth without significantly limiting performance. The fiberglass cone with a carbon structure provides high strength and stability even under greater load, while the optimized suspension and basket design allow sufficient excursion. As a result, the subwoofer delivers a balanced and controlled bass performance suitable both for everyday listening and for more dynamic music. The MWS1044 is an ideal choice for installations where the priority is a combination of compact dimensions, sound quality, and flexibility. It allows building smaller enclosures without major compromises and opens up solution possibilities where the use of a conventional subwoofer would not be possible.

About the brand

MUSWAY is an abbreviation of the motto "Music is the Way" – music is the way. The brand was born out of a passion for high-quality sound reproduction and first achieved notable success with high-quality Hi-Res audio players and digital signal processors. The real breakthrough came with the introduction of the first Class D amplifiers with integrated DSP, which gradually became internationally acclaimed in specialist magazine tests and won a number of prestigious awards, including EISA. Since 2015 the brand's development has been anchored in Germany, where product design, technical tuning and the final concept of individual models take place. Musway has gradually built a reputation as a manufacturer of compact, technically advanced and musically natural components that combine modern digital technologies with an emphasis on clean and linear sound. The portfolio today includes standalone and DSP amplifiers, speakers and subwoofers, with each new generation following the brand's philosophy – to offer the maximum musical experience without compromises in technology, functionality or workmanship.

Subwoofer diameterThe diameter of the subwoofer is indicated on the screw holes. The overall outer diameter of the subwoofer is usually 1-2 cm wider, depending on the size category of the subwoofer. For a 30 cm subwoofer, the outer diameter incl. protective rubber 31.8 cm and in the 25 cm subwoofer it is 26.5 cm incl. protective rubbers. 250 mm (10\")
RMS powerThe RMS power of the subwoofer is the constant power of continuous use of the subwoofer. If the power is exceeded for a longer period of time, irreversible damage may occur, or to burn out the voice coil of the subwoofer. 300 W
Max. (maximum performancePeak performance , which the subwoofer can play momentarily (approx. 0.5 s), for example when hitting drums in a song. If the maximum power is exceeded, damage can quickly occur, or to burn out the voice coil of the subwoofer. 600 W
Sensitivity (SPL 2.83V/1m)Subwoofer sensitivity or efficiency.

The sensitivity of the subwoofer is given in decibels (dB) and, in simple terms, means that the higher the value, the lower the demands on the power of the amplifier. This is a de facto rating of how a subwoofer converts watts to sound. Sensitivity ratings are in noise level measured at 1 meter from the subwoofer using 1 W (watt of power) or using 2.83 volts at the source at 1 meter.

A higher decibel level means the subwoofer is louder with less power. For every 3 dB increase in sensitivity, the subwoofer requires half the power to reproduce the same volume. For example, if an 88 dB subwoofer needs 300 Watts to produce a certain volume, then a subwoofer with 91 dB sensitivity needs only 150 Watts to reach the same efficiency.

ImpedanceImpedance - measurement of electrical resistance. When buying a subwoofer, it is very important that everyone make sure that the impedance matches the amplifier that you are connecting to it. For subwoofers with a double voice coil, we recommend following the information in the advice center!

Example:
A 2 Ohm subwoofer cannot be connected to an amplifier that is only stable up to 4 Ohms. A 4 Ohm subwoofer can easily be used on an amplifier that is stable up to 2 Ohms. Connecting a 4 Ohm subwoofer to an amplifier that is stable up to 4 Ohms also without problems. The most common subwoofer impedance is 4 Ohm.
4 + 4 Ω
Subwoofer diaphragm materialThe specific material from which the subwoofer membrane is made. Glass fibers
Subwoofer mounting depthThe mounting depth of the subwoofer is measured from the bottom edge of the magnet to the bottom edge of the subwoofer's metal or cast basket. 87 mm
Recommended enclosure volumeThe closed enclosure is characterized by a simple construction. Closed enclosures are usually smaller than bass-reflex enclosures, and a special damping fleece is used for their damping.

A closed baffle has the advantage of preventing an acoustic short between the front and back radiation of the subwoofer diaphragm. The disadvantage is that the closed enclosure raises the natural resonance frequency of the used subwoofer and thereby also increases the lower limit frequency. This is because the back side of the diaphragm is forced to compress and dilute the air inside the enclosure when the subwoofer is radiating in a closed enclosure. This adds to the inherent stiffness of the subwoofer's oscillation system the stiffness of the air in the closed enclosure. This causes an increase in the stiffness of the oscillating system and thus an increase in the resonant frequency of the entire system: subwoofer -> loudspeaker.

The increase in resonant frequency for a given subwoofer is greater, the smaller the volume of air in the closed enclosure. The relatively small volume of air in the closed enclosure acts on the subwoofer as an acoustic spring when radiating the back side of the membrane into the enclosed enclosure.

USE: Mainly for quality bass listening in the entire band with an emphasis on detail and accurate reproduction in the lower band.

Pros and cons:
+ pure reproduction
+ small closets
+ easier tuning
- low level of efficiency in deep bass
- loudness only at the cost of enormous deflection of the membrane
- a significant acoustic pressure cannot be expected
20 – 30 l
Recommended bass reflex speaker volumeA bass reflex enclosure is designed in the same way as a closed enclosure, but it also has a so-called bass reflex mouthpiece, or "bass reflex" or slot. Needle foam is used to dampen bass reflex enclosures.

USE:
The ideal use is in cases where the listener wants to achieve a high volume and a good sound pressure level. It is the best compromise between sound quality and performance and is also the most commonly used

Pros and cons:
+ good efficiency in deep bass
+ a small deflection of the membrane is enough for a large volume
- reproduction less accurate than with closed enclosures
35 l
Subwoofer voice coil diameterThe larger the diameter of the voice coil, the more load capacity the subwoofer has, in layman's terms. 50 mm
Fs - resonant frequencyFs - is the lower resonant frequency. This parameter is the de facto free air resonant frequency of the subwoofer. Simply put, it is the point at which the weight of the subwoofer's moving parts equals the force of the subwoofer's suspension while it is in motion. If you've ever seen a piece of string start to hum uncontrollably in the wind, you've seen the effect of reaching a resonant frequency.

The weight of the moving parts and the stiffness of the suspension (surround and spider) are key elements that affect the resonant frequency. As a general rule, a lower Fs indicates a subwoofer that would be better at reproducing low frequencies than a subwoofer with a higher Fs. However, this is not always the case, as other important parameters of the subwoofer also enter the resulting sound.
33.1 Hz
Xmax + -Xmax - the maximum deflection of the subwoofer diaphragm in one direction – it is not a sum, or an abbreviation for the maximum linear deflection. The subwoofer output becomes non-linear as the voice coil begins to leave the magnetic gap. 10 mm
MassSubwoofer weight in kilograms. The weight is usually given net, i.e. without packaging. 4.8 kg
