Description
The American Bass Godfather Series 12" Subwoofer is a high-SPL, high-power 12-inch driver built for enthusiasts who chase extreme bass, featuring an air-cooled bottom plate and a 400 oz magnet for serious motor strength.
- RMS Power: 3000W — continuous power handling for sustained, loud bass without excessive heat buildup.
- Max Power: 6000W — peak power capability for brief bursts when the music demands explosive output.
- Impedance: D1/D2 — dual voice coil configuration, allowing flexible wiring options in complex builds.
- Sensitivity: 86.3 dB — efficiency rating that informs how much amplifier power is needed to reach a given output at 1 m.
- Mounting Depth: 9.29 in — installation depth to check against trunk or enclosure mounting space.
- Cutout Size: 11.34 in — hole diameter required for proper mounting in the enclosure.
- Ported Box (ft³): 2.25–2.75 — recommended enclosure volume for a tuned ported configuration.
- Magnet Size: 400 oz — large magnet provides strong motor force for high excursion and SPL potential.
- Voice Coil Size: 4" — larger coil diameter improves heat handling and power handling capability.
- Basket Type: Cast — rigid frame to maintain alignment under high excursion and power.
- Air-Cooled Bottom Plate — active cooling helps manage heat during extended high-output playback.
- 4" Flat Wire Wound High Temp Coil — low-resistance windings designed to endure high temperatures for sustained performance.
- Multi Spider System — multiple spider sections increase mechanical control and durability under heavy cone movement.
- Double Stitched Cone — enhanced cone durability for repeated high-stress operation.
- Recommended Amp (Pair): VFL 5K / VFL 6K — matched amplification guidance for driving a pair of these woofers with confidence.
In a typical premium build, this subwoofer excels in a ported enclosure around the specified volume, delivering substantial bass output with strong thermal management and robust construction. It suits aggressive, high-power systems where durability and sustained SPL are priorities, and pairs with high-current amplifiers to maximize theGodfather’s dynamic potential.
