DS18 EXL-X12.4D EXL-X 12" Subwoofer 2500 Watts Dvc 4-Ohms

The DS18 EXL-X12.4D is a 12" dual-voice-coil subwoofer designed for competition-grade bass, delivering up to 2500W peak and 1250W RMS for powerful, precise low-end in demanding car installations.

• Nominal Diameter: 12" / 304.8mm — large cone area to move air and produce deep bass.
• Nominal Impedance: 4+4 ohms — dual 4-ohm coils offering flexible wiring options for different amplifiers.
• RMS Power Handling: 1250W — sustained power rating for consistent control and output.
• MAX Power Handling: 2500W — peak capability to handle short, high-demand bass transients.
• Sensitivity: 88dB (1w/1m) — how efficiently the sub converts electrical power to acoustic output.
• Frequency Response: 30Hz-1.7kHz — extends deep into sub-bass while maintaining clarity up to higher bass frequencies.
• Voice Coil Diameter: 2.57" / 65.2mm — larger coil supports high power handling and heat dissipation.
• Voice Coil Former Material: Black Aluminum — robust form to endure high excursion and heat.
• Cone Material: Non-Pressed Paper + Glass fiber — a balance of stiffness and lightness for accurate bass.
• Dust Cap Material: PPI — helps protect the motor and voice coil from debris.
• Surround Material: Foam — designed for flexible excursion and durability under high output.
• Basket Material: Aluminum — rigid frame that aids heat dissipation and structural integrity.
• Basket Color/Finish: Glossy Red — distinctive DS18 styling for visible installations.
• Magnet Material: Ferrite — provides the magnetic strength necessary for high-power operation.
• Weight: 2 x 105 oz — dual magnet configuration contributing to mass and excursion control.
• Displacement Volume: 3L / 0.105 ft3 — internal volume affecting enclosure design and bass output.
• Recommended Enclosures (Ported): Internal Volume 36L / 1.27 ft3 — tailored for ported bass with solid low-end extension.
• Port Size: 1.89" x 12.28" x 13.8" / 48.1 x 312 x 351mm — dimensions for proper enclosure ventilation.
• Port Tuning Frequency: 50Hz — enclosure tuning that shapes low-end response in ported designs.
• Ported Box Output Response: 42Hz — performance figure indicating ported configuration behavior.
• Overall Diameter: 12.6" / 321mm — physical footprint to plan mounting and fitment.
• Overall Depth: 8.14" / 207mm — mounting depth for installation clearance.
• Free Air Resonance: 56Hz — natural resonance that informs enclosure design and integration.

In a car audio build, this subwoofer shines in both sealed and ported configurations, with a ported recommendation of 36L for strong low-end extension. Its dual 4-ohm coils offer wiring flexibility to match a variety of amplifiers, while the ferrite magnets and aluminum basket provide durability under high-power conditions. The 30 Hz floor and 1.7 kHz upper range enable deep, punchy bass that remains articulate, making the EXL-X12.4D a capable centerpiece for high-performance systems requiring precise bass control and substantial output.
