American Bass HAWK Series 12" Subwoofer Dual 4 Ohm

The American Bass Hawk Series 12" Dual 4-Ohm subwoofer is built for serious car audio enthusiasts and SPL competitors, delivering high-power bass with thermal management thanks to a magnet-back heat sink and a robust 240 oz magnet. With dual 4-ohm voice coils, it handles demanding bass while maintaining control through intense passages.

• 12-Inch Dual 4-Ohm Subwoofer (D4): 12" diameter with two 4-ohm coils offers flexible wiring options for different amps and enclosure designs.
• RMS Power: 1500 W continuous rating to sustain long, powerful bass without excessive distortion when paired with the right amplifier.
• Max Power: 3000 W peak capability supports brief high-power bursts for SPL peaks.
• Impedance: D4 configuration provides wiring versatility to achieve varying total impedance based on installation needs.
• Sensitivity: 86.8 dB efficiency indicates how much sound pressure is produced per watt in a typical install.
• Magnet Size: 240 oz magnet contributes to strong control of cone movement and improved thermal handling at high power.
• Voice Coil Size: 3" voice coil enhances heat dissipation and supports high excursion demands.
• Basket Type: Cast basket offers rigidity and durability under heavy power delivery.
• Mounting Depth: 7.68" depth affects fitment in tight mounting locations.
• Cutout Size: 11.34" required diameter for proper mounting surface.
• Ported Box (Net): 2.2 ft³ recommended for a ported enclosure to optimize low-end extension.
• Foam Surround: Provides durable cone alignment and controlled excursion movements.
• Spider Suspension: Helps maintain linearity and stable performance during high motor values.
• Heat Sink: Back-of-magnet heat sink aids thermal management during sustained high-power playback.
• Recommended Amplifier (Pair): VFL Comp 2K is the recommended amp for a pair of these subs, aligning with the RMS specification.

In a competition-grade install, this 12" Hawk shines in a 2.2 ft³ ported enclosure, delivering deep, authoritative bass with reliable thermal management. The combination of a heavy magnet, large voice coil, and cast basket supports high output with controlled, low-distortion performance across demanding bass tracks.
