Introduction

Simply put, the THOR is the only in-wall subwoofer that
sufficiently provides bass to your home theater system.
The THOR remains stable and maintains next to zero
resonance because the user can bolt the THOR directly to
the studs from the front of the unit. This locks the THOR into
the structure of the home. Earthquake engineers also
added four dog ear fasteners for added sheet rock support.
There are two inches peak-to-peak out of a standard 16"
stud gap.
Arguably, the IW-SUB10's best feature is the SWS
subwoofer. The SWS driver has an amazing 10" diameter
but a mounting depth of only 3 3/4".
impressive excursion is almost the same as the mounting
depth. While other in-wall subs struggle to maintain a good
30Hz, THOR will go all the way down to 19Hz and counting.

This style of enclosure also helps deliver a very clean and
deep impact bass. THOR's back-box is constructed with
extra thick high-temperature PVC and is reinforced from
front to back all the way through the cabinet.
methods of reinforcement designs ensure the THOR's
prolonged strength, durability, and maximum dampening
capability. The first is the front to back bridges that sur-
round the drivers. At these points the cabinet is most
vulnerable to flexing and warping over time. Not the THOR.
THOR's bridges are locked using the mounting screws and
can literally be stood on top of by a 200 pound man. Fiber
In addition, the
fill was also used for added resonance protection. And last
but not least, crisscrossed ribs across the bottom of the
enclosure make this in-wall enclosure the strongest and
most durable. This type of internal bracing and attention to
detail is only used in the IW-SUB10 and only at
