The Awave AST-11TV6 Spare Tire Subwoofer is a high-performance active car audio subwoofer designed to deliver deep, accurate bass without sacrificing your cargo space. Instead of a bulky box in your trunk, this innovative unit fits neatly into the spare wheel well of most cars with 15-inch or larger spare wheels, keeping your interior clean and usable while massively upgrading your audio experience.
Built around an 11-inch driver and a powerful built-in Class-D amplifier, the AST-11TV6 produces strong low frequencies (25โ150 Hz) with clarity and minimal distortion โ perfect for genres like EDM, hip-hop, rock, and even orchestral or acoustic music. Its sealed cast-aluminum enclosure provides rigidity, excellent thermal performance, and low resonance, resulting in a punchy, controlled bass response that blends well with factory or aftermarket speakers.
Installation is straightforward thanks to plug-and-play wiring that accepts both high-level (speaker) and low-level (RCA) signals, and a remote control lets you adjust volume and bass on the fly from the driverโs seat. This makes the AST-11TV6 a practical and elegant solution for car owners who want powerful bass without the hassle or space sacrifice of traditional subwoofer boxes.
