AS10308PS-R Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AS10308PS-R is an 8 Ohm general purpose speaker manufactured by PUI Audio, Inc., rated at 15 W with a top port configuration and 93 dB sound pressure level. This speaker operates across a frequency range of 170 Hz to 15 kHz and features a ferrite magnet with paper cone construction in a round, square frame measuring 103.00 mm × 103.00 mm. The product is currently obsolete, making identification of compatible substitute components essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the AS10308PS-R is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Impedance Match: 8 Ohms (required for circuit compatibility)
• Port Location: Top (required for mechanical fit)
• Shape: Round, Square Frame (required for mounting compatibility)
• Termination Type: Solder Eyelet(s) (required for electrical connection)
• Physical Dimensions: Approximate 103 mm × 103 mm footprint (required for form factor compatibility)
• Efficiency Level: 93 dB SPL (acceptable performance baseline)

The GF1004M from CUI Devices meets all mandatory substitution criteria. While the GF1004M has a lower rated power (6 W versus 15 W) and a slightly different frequency range (230 Hz ~ 14 kHz versus 170 Hz ~ 15 kHz), it maintains electrical and mechanical compatibility through matching impedance, port location, frame shape, termination type, and comparable physical dimensions.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The GF1004M qualifies as a functional substitute for the AS10308PS-R based on matching electrical impedance, port configuration, frame geometry, and termination type. The GF1004M is currently in active production status with ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected certification, providing supply chain continuity for applications requiring the AS10308PS-R.

Applications requiring the full 15 W rated power of the AS10308PS-R should evaluate whether the GF1004M's 6 W rated power meets system requirements. The GF1004M's frequency range begins at 230 Hz rather than 170 Hz, which may affect low-frequency response in applications sensitive to sub-230 Hz performance. Physical dimensions are within 0.7 mm tolerance on length and width, with the GF1004M seated height 8.5 mm lower than the original part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the GF1004M directly replace the AS10308PS-R in existing designs?

A: The GF1004M provides electrical and mechanical compatibility through matching 8 Ohm impedance, top port location, solder eyelet termination, and comparable frame dimensions. However, the reduced rated power (6 W versus 15 W) and modified frequency range (230 Hz ~ 14 kHz versus 170 Hz ~ 15 kHz) require verification that system performance requirements are maintained.

Q: What are the key differences between these two speakers?

A: The primary differences are rated power capacity (15 W versus 6 W), maximum power handling (20 W versus 10 W), lower frequency response limit (170 Hz versus 230 Hz), and seated height (45.00 mm versus 36.50 mm). Cone material differs, with the AS10308PS-R using paper and the GF1004M using polyester/PET.

Q: Are the physical dimensions compatible?

A: Yes. Both speakers feature round, square frames with dimensions within 0.7 mm tolerance (AS10308PS-R: 103.00 mm, GF1004M: 102.40 mm). The GF1004M is 8.5 mm shorter in seated height, which may affect enclosure design considerations.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to the GF1004M?

A: The GF1004M is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. Both parts carry EAR99 ECCN classification and 8518.29.8000 HTSUS code.

Q: Does the frequency range difference impact substitution?

A: The GF1004M's frequency range begins at 230 Hz compared to the AS10308PS-R's 170 Hz. Applications requiring response below 230 Hz should evaluate whether this 60 Hz offset affects system performance specifications.
