Adding a subwoofer remains one of the easiest ways to transform a vehicle sound system, but many drivers simply don't want to sacrifice valuable boot space.
That is where Recoil Audio’s LAS10 aims to make its mark, offering a compact active subwoofer solution designed for vehicles where traditional bass enclosures are impractical.
Distributed in the UK by Sloth Poppy, Recoil is one of several audio brands the company is helping bring to a wider audience alongside names including DLS, GAS and Aerpro.
Founded in Phoenix, Arizona in 2004, Recoil positions itself as an affordable audio specialist covering car, marine and powersports applications. The company produces amplifiers, speakers, DSP products, subwoofers and accessories, with a focus on delivering accessible upgrades without moving into premium price territory.
The LAS10 combines a 10in shallow-mount subwoofer with a built-in amplifier, delivering 200W RMS and up to 600W maximum output from a compact enclosure. With a frequency response of 30Hz-150Hz and a 2 ohm impedance, it’s designed to add deeper, more powerful bass while keeping installation simple.
The built-in amplifier removes the need for additional hardware, while the included remote bass control allows drivers to adjust output on the move. Its slim design means it can be installed beneath seats or in other tight locations, making it suitable for hatchbacks, saloons, SUVs and vans where a traditional subwoofer enclosure would take up too much room.
Priced at around £149, the LAS10 sits firmly in the accessible upgrade category, offering an easy route for drivers wanting more impact from their existing sound system.
As factory infotainment systems become increasingly integrated and harder to replace, compact powered solutions like this are becoming a popular way to improve sound quality without major modifications.
