This very powerful 12" driver produces true 3" peak-to-peak excursion.
Custom built in the USA featuring Linear Motor Technology, ears will be blown away by its
intrinsic accuracy and massive output. Perfect for moderate to large home theaters
and audiophiles seeking out the cleanest and most earthquaking bass available. As a
moderate to large-box driver, if you cannot accomodate our recommended range of enclosure
volumes and power levels, we would urge you to consider our Premium
Series drivers as a more practical (albeit less powerful) solution for high
performance applications requiring minimal use of space. The Supreme 12 is available
in single 4 
voicecoil only and is rated for 1200 watts RMS. |

Series drivers are optimized for moderate to large sealed enclosures. For optimal
performance, we suggest a minimum of 2.0 cu ft net volume. If
you are aiming to fill a large home theater and have the extra space at your disposal,
moving up to 6.0 cubic feet will aid in low-frequency extension along with a flattening of
the response curve. The following graphs are normalized SPL response curves and should
give you an idea of the changes in output that will occur when implementing different
enclosure alignments. Please remember that these graphs are not absolute, and that
your realized output will fluctuate on account of many variables including the size and
shape of your listening environment, the placement of the subwoofer within its
environment, and even the amount of power used.

Vented enclosures are not recommended for these drivers, as in
most applications they will result in a considerably peaked response curve that is
undesireable for a balanced listening experience. If you must try the ported
alignment, we advise aiming for a net internal volume between 4.0 and 6.0 cu ft, tuned
between 14-22 Hz. The low tuning is necessary in order to keep your response curve
reasonably flat. The larger your box, the lower the tuning should be.
For those of you looking to compete in sound pressure level competitions, a larger
moderate- to high-tuned enclosure will work to your advantage by providing an
exceptionally large peak in the frequency response near tuning, suitable for producing
very high dB's on a limited range of frequencies. |
